How Important Skill?
You might agree selling skills aren’t rare. Children have them as they prove when they ask you to do things, or buy them things. Yet only with the right attitude and mental blueprint for taking action can your salesperson raise your revenue. Isn‘t that what you want?

NEW...  I'm off sabbatical back in Victoria and looking for a business to sell for. I may now update this blog from time to time with my thoughts on business.

Autosuggestion Is No Laughing Matter! Comics Are.


dilbert.jpeg

I came across an interesting article about writing “affirmations” to help you achieve by Scott Adams.

You know, the guy who writes the Dilbert comic strip:

“But some of my goals involved neither hard work nor skill of any kind. I succeeded with those too, against all odds.”

— Scott Adams

It reminds me a lot of the “Autosuggestion” concept in this “Think and Grow Rich” audio by Napoleon Hill I’ve been listening to recently.

I’m going to do it, or something close to it.

Business Cards and Unique Selling Proposition (USP)


I designed my cards to go with the site.

UPDATE Monday August 27th, 2007: Redesigned my site so the previous cards don’t go with the new design.

UPDATE Sunday January 20th, 2008: Designed proper logo, finally. See below for the newer newer cards.

My new business card - front
(Click the image to see current contact information.)

My new business card - back
(Click the image to see the slightly expanded bullet points on my homepage.)

The website itself is based on a template I enjoyed, heavily modified and “modulated” by yours truly. For example, this blog is powered by Blogger, but I integrated it into my existing site.

It’s a table based layout in an era where CSS (cascading style sheet) is supposed to reign supreme.

Oh well. Sometimes I like doing things the old fashioned way.

But change can be good. Like these last two months.
