Hi Luke, it is funny. Things go full circle. When the time comes that travel is more comfortable and affordable, I'll bet you see lots more emphasis on good, old fashioned face to face meetings. Let's hope the time comes sooner rather than later. Brad Shorrs last blog post..Are You a Social Media Doer or Dabbler?

I think it is funny, now that phone and email marketing have become so common, face-to-face has become a competitive advantage for some types of sales. Luke Gedeons last blog post..There’s Gold in Them Thar Hills

Hi Robert, Thank you for the encouragement on our training course!

Bill and Robert – I wouldn’t say I invented telemarketing (hey, I’m no Al Gore), but in our industry at that time, it really was peculiar.

Wow, Brad – you really ARE somebody!

Don’cha just love it when things come together like that? It’s like bein’ on top of the game. Or riding that perfect wave. Or maybe like hitting the ball right on that sweet spot that sends it soaring off into the distance.

And it’s good to know you’ve taken that lesson and applied it to new stuff, too. (Congrats on the new SEO course, by the way! I just know you and Stephen are gonna be winners at it!)

Fred, Good point - Taking the initiative is a good idea even if you're not sure of the outcome - a preemptive strike on the competition. Brad Shorrs last blog post..New SEO, Web Content Training for Non-Geeks

Thanks for sharing this Brad. It's so hard to realize how quickly we've moved away from face to face all the way to now when there's sales folks out there doing everything via email. And the lesson you state in your headline is very important... Truth is if you hadn't run with your idea your competitors would have. So take it where it leads.

Alina, Very good work on staying fittable in that dress. Not many dresses or people can outlast my Zenith! Brad Shorrs last blog post..New SEO, Web Content Training for Non-Geeks

A truly inspiring story! And it proves that our own need to make things work faster, while covering an always bigger area, is what drives innovation in many fields. Your Zenith kind of reminds me of a dress I bought with money I earned at a Latin contest. It was a lovely dress, the most expensive one I had at the time. I still have it. Miraculously, it still fits and it still looks pretty good

Just goes to show you what can be done when you think “outside the cell”. All this time I believed it was illegal to sell the paper used to print US currency to anyone but the Mint. You were smart enough to look at the various existing and aspiring counterfitters out there as an underserved market! Not to sure about the phone records created but what the heck…

On a more serious note, didn’t know until today that you were the “father of telemarketing”. Might be worth considering the addition of that title to your business card!
