Why I love Teambox

Just a quick not to anyone still reading this blog. I am in love with Teambox. It is the best software for online collaboration ever. Why?

1. The activity stream makes is super easy to stay on top of teams and projects.

2. The task management is easier than anything I have ever used.

3. @Notifications make it fast and easy to include people in conversations.

4. CONVERT TO TASK! I can take any conversation and make it actionable.

My man Will at Top Sales Blog lays it down to the price slashers

Your company after a year of discounting

Things are nuts getting ready for Sales Evangelist TV. Between the book and prep for the show, and the 12 hours a day for the clients, I am struggling to get posts up on the blog. Fret not, for I will be sharing some of the fantastic posts from Sales Trainers around the sphere and reviewing some books really soon.

For starters:

Over at Top Sales Blog today, I just had to share this great post from Will  about maintaining price margins in 2009.Will goes into a fantastic rant about maintaining Sales Margins in 2009.

I thought so highly of it I left quite a comment.

My man Brad is a Sales Management enabler

What exactly is Brad trying to accomplish at salesmanagement20.com?

Sure the sales role is the fastest changing role in the modern organization. Sure the sales manager has to adapt or face extinction. Sure we need help any way we can get it.

But really, did he need to develop a complete sales management 2.0 community? I mean, is he trying to trainer the sales trainer? Offer sales training ideas to those that need them most? Really who thinks we need that?

(me….good work Brad)

Some messages to the free market world:

To all the news men, politicians, and loud mouths out there, I have one thing to say. SHUT UP!!! You are only making matters worse by ruining the average person’s ability to maintain focus on their day to day.

For all of you that still have a job.  STOP FREAKING OUT. The more you change your behavior the more you hurt the current situation. If you still have a job and you are not in bad shape, then take care of your needs and your family. Little Johnny can still get a Christmas, and you should still spend in a smart manner.
