There are no shortcuts to success…
This is a post from Mark Cuban, worth sharing: How To Get Rich Aug 4th 2011 11:06PM I haven’t been posting a lot lately, but in light of the recent activity in the stock markets and the depressing unemployment rates I thought it would be a good time to re-post a blog...
It doesn’t matter where you come from to do great things!
I was talking about my home town, Malden, and some of the characters that came from this colorful community. There were lots of not so great examples but conversely some really great examples. Bobby Sager - who probably can't remember me and my brief stint working...

Do you really add any value for your clients?
Here is a great story a friend shared with me, thanks Nathan! I interviewed a fascinating marketing expert called Mal Emery for my Unfair Business Advantage Report. (Mal has bought and sold dozens of businesses and helps business owners to create massive increases in...

What do you mean?
How many times have you been in a sales process and everything seemed to go right and you just can't close? Sound familiar? You bet it does for most of the salespeople out there that never really figure out what the real need is...
Is the world really flat?
I'm sure many of you have read Thomas Friedman's novel that lays out the tenets of the brave new world we live in. There really are no boundaries any longer and we can tap into resources everywhere and do so with efficiencies. That's a beautiful thing and the result...
Tennis Anyone?
I played tennis for the first time in many years, ouch... Aside from realizing my decline in hand eye coordination and endurance I learned a valuable lesson since we played doubles. It's all about teamwork and communication. Better teams beat better talent...
Be human and you have an edge
Always default to being yourself if all else fails. The number one factor for making a decision to buy is trust so what do you think conveys this quality. Follow a script or have a conversation and go with the flow? What do you think works better? Bye for now....
