Make it Here: Assembly Line to Save America

Us vs Them. Global vs Local. Unification vs Isolation. Which is it? Help thy neighbour or look out for thyself. The Internet has brought our world together. Like it or not. Just 5 days after Donald Trump jumped into the Apple-China manufacturing debate Tuesday, calling for Apple CEO Tim Cook to make Apple products in [...]

iPhone, Kardashian Step Aside: Most Memorable Moments of 2011

Don’t be too upset that you didn’t make the “top 10 list for most searched on the Internet in 2011″.

Donald Trump’s Advice on Being Successful: Screw China, Buy Aussie Hair Spray and Always Get Even

After spending a little more than a hour at Sydney’s Entertainment Centre with the flamboyant billionaire, otherwise known as “the Don”, it’s hard not to appreciate his candid in-your face intensity and dog-eat-dog business practices.

This quote was in a great article from the Ottawa Business Journal that I recently read. Great marketers know that we are motivated by two things, [...]

The Fisherman’s Story: What are you working for?

There was once a businessman who was sitting by the beach in a small Brazilian village. As he sat, he saw a Brazilian fisherman rowing a small boat towards the shore having caught quite few big fish. The businessman was impressed and asked the fisherman, “How long does it take you to catch so many [...]

It’s About You, Not ‘How-To’

After watching the first few minutes of the disgraceful video about ‘Black Friday’ on Youtube last week coupled with an email from Nick Tart, the young co-author of What it Takes to Make More Money than Your Parents, describing the biggest complaint his readers had which was that his book didn’t give enough ‘how-to’ advice, I [...]
