The Economy…Getting Worse

Intraday News Alert – Apparently the Economy is getting worse at a much more rapid rate than I thought. It is rare that I’ll make an intra-day post, but I felt it would be irresponsible not to report on some of today’s economic news. I have been stating for quite some time now that we are clearly in a recession while many academics are still debating the issue. However the real issue is not are we, or aren’t we, but rather how bad is it really going to get…

Making the Most of Talent

I’ve written often on the subject of leadership development and talent management because very few things in business can catalyze change and create sustainable growth like leaders who understand how to leverage their talent and resources. It takes more than charisma and subject matter expertise to be a leader, it also takes a keen understanding of how to create organizational leverage. In today’s post I’ll share some thoughts on how to maximize your talent and resources…

Super Bowl Disaster!

Okay, I’m a huge fan of “Da Bears” but their loss to the Colts is not the disaster I’m referring to. Actually even I can’t be too upset about solid leaders like Peyton Manning and Tony Dungy getting the win, but I digress…The disaster I’m referring to is that of Super Bowl advertising.  I appreciate a good branding play as much as the next guy…I aslo enjoy excellent creative and actually possess a true love for genuine marketing and advertising genius. That being said, I’m here to tell you that Super Bowl advertising makes no business sense whatsoever in that it cannot be economically justified by any sane method of analysis. In reality Super Bowl ads are far from genius and in fact more closely resemble irresponsible and frivolous action by advertisers. In today’s post I’ll point out the flawed business logic in purchasing Super Bowl advertising and even provide a few suggestions to advertisers for better alternatives…

Phil GerbyshakOne of the requests I’ve had of late is to begin conducting interviews with Authors, CEO’s and other business personalities that would be of interest our readers. Well, ask and you shall receive….I first stumbled across Phil Gerbyshak on the blogosphere by posting a comment on an article he authored. An e-mail dialogue ensued, and a few weeks later Phil and I have learned that we have many things in common…A passion for personal development and learning, a love for baseball, and an admiration of Zig Ziglar among other things. My hope is that I will be the first one to put Phil Gerbyshak on your radar screen, and that you can follow along with what I believe is truly one of the rising stars in the personal develop business. May I introduce Phil Gerbyshak, author and speaker. On to the interview…

How’s Your Elevator Pitch?

July 10, 2006 in Branding & Identity, Miscellaneous, Public Relations, Uncategorized with 0 Comments

By Mike Myatt, Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth

One of the first and most important professional communication techniques I was taught in business was the importance of developing an “Elevator Pitch” a very short statement describing what it is that you do. In fifty words or less (about 30 €“ 45 seconds) you should be able to communicate who you are, what you do, who you do it for and how people benefit from what you do.
