Michael Sliwinski is the founder of one of the best online productivity tools, Nozbe.com. Written to fit with the principles of “Getting Things Done”, Michael, a productivity junkie and trainer, and a bit of a software geek, wrote up a bare-bones version of Nozbe.com in an evening. Five years later, he and his staff of twelve have rolled out Nozbe 2.0, mobile apps and in just a few days, a “desktop” version of Nozbe. So …
It’s really hard to express how simultaneously cool and nice Gini Dietrich is as a person. We all know her as the founder and CEO of Arment-Dietrich, Inc., a digital marketing and PR firm, and as the author of the really awesome “I’ve cornered every blogging award out there” blog Spin Sucks.

You might be wondering what’s the big deal about that. After all, few advertising people have …
How many different accountants do you know? What about laywers? Insurance brokers? Graphic designers? Many I’ll bet. It gets worse if you do any sort of networking. You probably have several of each in your contact list or in your shoebox of business cards. Do you remember anything about them?

When the time comes to tell you clients about all the wonderful things you can do for them, do you ever take pause and wonder how to go about it? Should you speak to a problem or a solution? Should you appeal to emotion or logic? Hopefully after reading this you’ll wonder a little less and maybe come away surprised at what some research has shown.
