I'm in Australia, it was 4 working days. IIRC The price went up from $60 to about $170 during that time, very frustrating. At least I'm verified now - but I have to say their lag time and apparent saling issues still concern me a lot.

Another one that is excellent is called "the challenger sale". Here it is on amazon, I bought the audible version. http://www.amazon.com/The-Challenger-Sale-Customer-Conversat... A further one to look at is the maverick selling method. Co

Gee I hope it is neither, as a party who intends to go long on BTC. Facebook has indeed proved to be much more successful than MySpace but I still think its valuation will settle far below what it is today.

In sales we call this objection handling. List every possible objection the other party will put up and prepare answers for them. Once prepared, ask the other party what objections they actually have and keep asking for more until they have

How does this compare with Heroku for RoR hosting? Do they compete or is Heroku solving a different problem?

Reading the comments below it sounds like there is an infrastructure scaling issue going on down at EA (I'm no DRM specialist). If that is indeed the case: Methinks the AWS sales guy/gal on the EA account has just been handed the easiest RO

Big data is all the rage, but as an enterprise biz dev guy I hear a lot of talk about it and not a lot of real doing. The article states accurately that people can store huge amounts of data. What I don't think it explored sufficiently is h

Can you put some words up there about how safe my data would be? Because it looks like the site is based on twitter bootstrap, my mind has immediately led me to think you're doing the storage etc on a bootstrap budget. Potentially leaving i

Couldn't agree more. And be genuinely interested/excited in whatever you are doing - if it becomes a project you'll need passion and not just technical skills to see it though to completion.

I just checked out your web site (assuming you are talking about PayAus). From a brief once-over it looks super technical, try focusing your content on business problems, not technology. I know it is OT but if you want some tips from a sale

I think the author of this article is mistaken between what pivoting is and what sales is. Pivoting is what owners and senior stakeholders do to a company, to change it's future direction. The Concur example is a good example of this. Sure

I think this is a very smart move by Musk. Grow the Tesla brand at very little cost, and potentially win a new client to sell batteries to. Surely a Boeing contract would bring decent margins (they will now pay a premium for a quick fix) an

Just hope their definition of consumer electronics doesn't extend to include their high end coffee machines (they acquired Saeco a few years ago). http://www.saeco.philips.com/ I love my machine, I'd be very sad to see that brand disappea
