How to make people listen to what you say .....

I have heard one of the talks at Ted and felt this is really important in life to adopt if you want to make sure people listen to you.

The art of persuasion

1. What you should not do.

2. What you should do.


As simple as it is.

Cheers and happy talking !!

One of the example of "Bad Landing page"

Below is the landing page from an email campaign, I tried clicking on each of the block there is no clickable link, after reading each line on the this page realized offer is only valid at stores.

One of the example of bad marketing strategy.

Test Post from Windows Live Writer

Was testing different application for blogging, and looks like Windows Live writer is every handy and easy to use.

However it takes longer time to download and install.

I was mainly looking for SharePoint blog where it makes user easy to blog as SharePoint is very slow in loading and pulling WebPages.

Namma Metro - Rocks !!!!

BSNL Internet Broadband SUCK....

Just have a look at the number I have started calling from morning to get my internet broadband working...and it’s still not working …

By the way I have already lodged my complaint through 18004241600 (One more twist here on the BSNL Website they have given the number as 16004241600 which never turns up as right number for broadband issues)

Once after complaint lodged no response from 2 days.

Someone from customer care tells to call - 26751111

Then again he gives another number after dialing couple of times - 26740400

Then again one more number - 26740300

Then after calling for 11 times in 1 hour I get the response Manjula madam is not in the seat..... Call after 1 hour

Then again after trying 8 times in 45 min I get a response "why don’t you come to office and talk with Manjula madam"... (Who the hell is this manjula!!!..... )

Later I got the number of manula madam :) I still not lost my hopes you see... - 20129532 - she is the one who manages 1000s of internet connection for faults... shoooot... one lady for whole lot of connections.

interesting thing now when I get to call manjula madam - listen to her response ..."I cannot fix it today, as I was in your area till now and right now I am far away from office and your area I cannot come back again" I politely response I can pick you and drop to the same place once my internet got fixed or please arrange for any other alternate person who I can pick him up for fix.. ... She hangs up the phone....

Again after calling several time for exchange... i have received higher authority number this time its Gayathi madam ... :)... - 26749193

She said there are 2 lines one cannot be fixed and other I need to give a try and she took my number saying she will call me back... till now no reponse.........

Jai BSNL ...Mera Bharat Mahan ... (It happens only in India)

There is a thin line of difference between confidence and arrogance...

There is a thin line of difference between confidence and arrogance - Azim Premji

I was reading to a mail forwarded by my colleague about Inspiring excerpts from the address by Azim Premji , founder, Wipro , at IIT Delhi's convocation ceremony

I liked his lessen #4:

Lesson 4: Nothing fails like success
The fourth lesson I have learnt is the importance of humility. There is a thin line of difference between confidence and arrogance. Confident people are always open to learn. A recent survey of executives in Europe showed that the single most important quality needed for leadership success was the willingness to learn from any situation. Arrogance on the other hand stops learning. It comes with a feeling that one knows all that needs to be known and has done all that needs to be done.


This really really make sense, comes very handy in the corporate world.

Cheers,
