Selling Against the Goal: How Corporate Sales Professionals Generate the Leads They Need
$22.95
I just finished reading Kendra's book "Selling Against the Goal" and I liked many things, but at the top of the list was her narrative. She included great charts and mock situations that helped put everything in perspective. Kendra helped me realize that I could do everything in the book if I took all of my skills and structured them to fit the flow she outlined. As I was reading I kept saying to myself "oh.. that's cool, I can do that". While I know all aspects of direct marketing, my most passionate contribution is in helping clients develop marketing strategies that are unbiased and focused on their bottom line. Kendra showed me how to apply my marketing expertise to sales and attract those clients.

It seems everyone just wants to state their opinion today but offer no sound advice on how to get from point A to Point Z but Kendra's book was different. Honestly... I felt welcomed into Kendra's book and I felt that she understood what it was I wanted to learn. I enjoyed the book very much and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Caravan/Prague
$9.99
"Caravan Prague" is an affecting, effective piece of documentary filmmaking. It documents the progress of a bike caravan moving five hundred miles across Europe, from Hannover, Germany to Prague, The Czech Republic. The purpose of the journey, in which over a hundred people from various countries participated, was to bring focus on the theme "Money or Life" as they cycled to Prague to join other activists attending a protest of the policies of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank in 2000.

As background, it should be noted that the Prague protest was viewed the participating activists as an appropriate follow-up to the previous year's Seattle, Washington, USA protests. The Seattle protest actually overshadowed the proceedings of the World Trade Organization (WTO,) which the activists had come to address, in most international press outlets. The massive numbers of citizens from various countries and walks of life in Seattle in 1999 brought to many people's attention around the world the issues of economic globalization and the lack of transparency in the policy-making processes of many international economic organizations.

Thus, a meeting of the IMF and World Bank representatives would be a flashpoint in the push for a dialogue and the reformation of these organizations.

The theme of the Caravan, "Money or Life," was meant to present an alternate example to the policies of these two organizations. The hundred-plus young people from Europe and North America participating in the caravan had set themselves the goal of establishing a rolling utopian community where all decisions were established on a consensus basis. Meanwhile, the German and Czech police authorities were committed to warding off another Seattle.

A constantly moving action, with people camping out or sleeping in squats as they proceeded, because they had little money, presented a special challenge for police authorities. Ironically, we are thus presented with two caravans, that of activists and that of the police trying to constantly monitor them. This presents Winestine with humorous footage as the two caravans wend their way through some of Germany's most beautiful countryside.

The entire, feature-length documentary is seen from Winestine's eye and he provides narration. He takes us inside his head and through his special journey of adventure, self-discovery and humor in an especially optimistic voice that most viewers will empathize with, I predict. He comes across as youthful, intelligent and engaging, still exploring options for bringing about a better world.

Of course cycling has its own rhythms and that too comes through in the film. As said, the German countryside he shares with us is postcard beautiful. The interactions between the members of caravan itself run the gamut from slapstick to argumentative.

Bought this movie along with A Fish Called Wanda, another Cleese classic. I found this movie to be funny, though not up with A Fish Called Wanda. I do not believe that any other Cleese film could equal Fish, but this movie is a hoot overall. Worth the price paid and worth a watch on a rainy day.
