Rant (not Friday)

by Keith on August 10, 2011

I was just wondering…all these rioters. When did they find time to leave work early, put down their newspapers, log off from the Daily telegraph web site and undertake their divine right to uphold social justice and fight against repression? I didn’t have the time to be perfectly honest.

Or being ever so slightly cynical…did they just fancy a scrap and a new TV?

Friday rant

by Keith on January 27, 2011

Are you talking yourself into having a bad year? I’m not for one minute saying that all is rosy with the world…it’s not going to be easy through this economic period. However, for those of us willing to be innovative, optimise our business potential, try new things, work a little bit harder and smarter and so on, surely we have the will and ability to not only survive it, but to grow through it?

My Book

October 13, 2010

OK. The thing is, I now have my book published. Brilliant. Now, how do I let everyone know? As I say cannily in the title, ’selling for everyone’, it could be for everyone. Is it possible to tell everyone? Or if I tell a few people and they like it will they eventually tell everyone?

Friday Rant

September 8, 2010

I know it’s not Friday….
The kids are back at school. Massive sigh of relief. No. In fact I’ll go further than that. Massive party round at my (someone elses) house!

Friday Rant

August 10, 2010

Ok. It’s Tuesday. I broke my own rule – I just needed an outlet and I don’t kick dogs, chickens or kids, and I don’t have a cat, so here goes.
Working from home is perfect for me; it’s generally quiet, relaxed, there’s no travel, coffee on tap, spaniel at my feet etc etc..
..and then the [...]

Friday Rant!!!

July 2, 2010

Why on a Friday? Well, there is plenty of material after a full week of  existence…an example. I received a call. The person on the other end of the phone was engaged in a conversation (loose term) with someone else. I waited while she had finished. I honestly thought it was my daughter, (who is [...]

Why I wrote this book

June 28, 2010

Mostly to share stuff. It’s a good way of sharing a bit of what you know, finding out who is interested in it and who needs to learn and so on. From feedback I hope to gain a lot of information about what to write next….it’s a bug and I have it. Wonder if it’s [...]

My Book – Selling-for everyone

June 11, 2010

So, why did I write it?
I have seen many sales people in action and been involved in so much training that it becomes obvious that selling can be incredibly diverse, interesting and occasionally complex.
In my view of the world, and beginning to unfold in my first book, selling -for everyone, I try and show that [...]
