At the same time, communicators work tirelessly to get to the leadership table, stay there and have real influence. We’re all working toward the same end: strategic thinking and implementation that truly impacts the business. For some, operating more like a consultant, even while continuing to work inside the organization, makes more sense. But how do you transition to such a model? http://tc.eserver.org/31041.html http://tc.eserver.org/31041.html It's not about what software you use, or how you organize your document, or how big the document is; but about whether the expectations the client has set, have been met.

Your personal presence, building goodwill, and enhancing your network. http://tc.eserver.org/28799.html http://tc.eserver.org/28799.html You've got thirty seconds to sell your work to the well dressed nemesis who's paying you. Handle the next few moments gracefully, and the project will be one you can be proud of. Flub an answer, and you can kiss excellence goodbye. Are you prepared? Can you deliver? http://tc.eserver.org/13564.html http://tc.eserver.org/13564.html I recently encountered a young web entrepreneur who understands that in business, 'no' doesn't necessarily mean 'never,' and that a last ditch sales pitch can pay off - maybe not today or tomorrow, but some day. It's a wise investment because one sales letter can be adapted and personalized for many different uses over time. And it can help you retrieve prospects you thought you had lost!
