		<description><![CDATA[Or better yet&#8230; Would you hire a MUTE Invisible Man as your marketer?
A lot of people approach marketing just as if they were invisible, and mute. You wouldn&#8217;t hire someone to market that way for you, so why would you BE that way about it?
In order to market successfully, you have to be seen, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two years ago when I had the concept for our business, I felt it was unique. I also felt that it was badly needed, and that few others would do it unless we proved that it could be done, first.

		<description><![CDATA[They call it BPM. It used to be called &#8220;systems management&#8221;. But the term &#8220;business systems&#8221; got corrupted, and the name changed for clarification. Business Process Management is nothing more than looking for repetitive task sets within a business, and developing a faster, more predictable process for making them more efficient.

		<description><![CDATA[Being human, it is easy to assume that the advantages we have are available everywhere. That the rules of marketing and business are the same everywhere. I&#8217;ve been guilty of making those assumptions, and I&#8217;ve been on the receiving end of many of them.
