MY THREE RULES

May77_About.jpg

SKIP THE B.S.

I believe in under-promising and over-delivering. I won’t make vows that I can’t keep. If you want to grow your business, I advise you to do the same.

SKIP THE JARGON

I believe in speaking humbly in terms that most people can understand.
Let’s vow not to “leverage core competencies” or “right-size” anything.

SKIP THE FLUFF

I believe in brevity. People lead busy lives. You must be able to concisely explain why your product or service is valuable and worthy of support.

I KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT
