How to Sell, even if you have never sold before!
The document outlines an agenda for a presentation on selling, even for those without previous sales experience. The presentation covers sales fundamentals like starting with goals and identifying customer needs. It also provides tips for sales calls like being human, asking questions, and taking notes. The presenter is Dan Tyre from Hubspot, who has 25 years of experience in startups and inbound marketing.
Seven qualities of top sales people
The document summarizes a presentation on the seven qualities of top salespeople. It identifies these qualities as being ambitious, courageous, committed, seeing oneself as a consultant rather than just a salesperson, being well-prepared, engaging in continuous learning, and taking responsibility. It provides examples and explanations for each quality, such as how courageous people confront their fears and ask for sales. It emphasizes that personal salesmanship, or selling oneself, is key to any career.
Great vs. Good
The document contrasts "great" work with merely "good" work in advertising and other creative fields. It outlines four key points: 1) what characteristics define "great" work, 2) how elusive truly "great" work is to achieve, 3) common enemies that prevent work from being "great", and 4) three tips to help produce "great" work, such as learning from others, being tough on oneself, and seeking new opportunities. The overall message is that creators and planners should strive for "great" work and avoid being satisfied with just "good", as settling for the latter will fail to have a lasting impact.
Care More and Close More
Completely align selling a product and closing a sale with a higher purpose. At the end of the day your true purpose will carry you through.
This is what separates the closers from the losers, and the big producer from the average producer. To continue to ask, persist, to figure out another way to circle back after being told no, reposition and ask again is ultimately what will make you a great closer.
The only way to wear out resistance is with persistence.

17 FROM 17: THE BEST BUSINESS BOOKS OF 2017
This year's highlights of the popular blog greatesthitsblog.com.
Author and business advisor Kevin Duncan reads business books extensively and summarises them so you don't have to.
The Excellence Book: 50 Ways To Be Your Best
BE AS EXCELLENT AS YOU CAN BE
The book draws together 50 ingenious thoughts to improve your attitude, your approach to life and work, the questions you ask, the decisions you make, and even your timing.
Attitude, approach, timing, questions and decisions are all covered, with ten provocative thoughts in each area.
MAKING INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS WORK
MAKING INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS WORK: OUTLINE
Commercial success through increased cultural understanding
Diversity of thinking and respect for other peoples’ perspectives are critical virtues for the leadership of global corporations, and the successful interaction of businesspeople across cultures. Misunderstanding between team members of different nationalities, or with customers from different cultures, can cause extreme problems in business.
This course is all about success through increased cultural understanding. It is a great help to anyone who:
• Works with colleagues from a range of countries and cultural backgrounds
• Deals with clients or colleagues in a range of other countries and cultures
• Needs to solve cross-border commercial issues swiftly and effectively
It is a distillation of all the best wisdom on the topic – the best writing, the most interesting interaction models, and the most informative anecdotes.
In the morning, we cover:
• What is culture?
• How do national traits affect individual behaviour?
• How do corporate cultures do the same?
• What are the cultural characteristics of different nationalities?
• How can they be used to deal effectively other cultures?
• How can different characteristics be deployed in multi-cultural teams?
• How does all this affect approaches to communication, decision-making, meeting etiquette, negotiation styles, scheduling, and trust?
In the afternoon, we address the specific issues of the attendees.
• In a team with multiple cultures, we examine what they all are, and explain the worldviews of all the nationalities present. Poignant examples lead to greater realization of the attitudes of others.
• Where attendees regularly deal with other cultures, we examine their characteristics to create greater understanding and increase the likelihood of harmonious business relations.
• All of this is applied to group work on the multi-cultural team or on specific clients.
To achieve this, I need a full rundown on the cultural backgrounds of all the attendees (and/or their clients) in advance, so that I can prepare the correct blend of tailor-made examples to match their specific needs.
Kevin Duncan has travelled to over 70 countries, and worked with people from dozens of different nationalities.

Corporate Open Source Anti-Patterns: A Decade Later
A little over a decade ago, I gave a talk on corporate open source anti-patterns, vowing that I would return in ten years to give an update. Much has changed in the last decade: open source is pervasive in infrastructure software, with many companies (like our hosts!) having significant open source components from their inception. But just as open source has changed, the corporate anti-patterns around open source have changed too: where the challenges of the previous decade were all around how to open source existing products (and how to engage with existing communities), the challenges now seem to revolve around how to thrive as a business without betraying the community that made it one in the first place. Open source remains one of humanity's most important collective achievements and one that all companies should seek to engage with at some level; in this talk, we will describe the changes that open source has seen in the last decade, and provide updated guidance for corporations for ways not to do it!

The "Zen" of Python Exemplars - OTel Community Day
The Zen of Python states "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it." OpenTelemetry is the obvious choice for traces but bad news for Pythonistas when it comes to metrics because both Prometheus and OpenTelemetry offer compelling choices. Let's look at all of the ways you can tie metrics and traces together with exemplars whether you're working with OTel metrics, Prom metrics, Prom-turned-OTel metrics, or OTel-turned-Prom metrics!

Global data transfers can be tricky due to different regulations and individual protections in each country. Sharing data with vendors has become such a normal part of business operations that some may not even realize they’re conducting a cross-border data transfer!
The Global CBPR Forum launched the new Global Cross-Border Privacy Rules framework in May 2024 to ensure that privacy compliance and regulatory differences across participating jurisdictions do not block a business's ability to deliver its products and services worldwide.
To benefit consumers and businesses, Global CBPRs promote trust and accountability while moving toward a future where consumer privacy is honored and data can be transferred responsibly across borders.
This webinar will review:
- What is a data transfer and its related risks
- How to manage and mitigate your data transfer risks
- How do different data transfer mechanisms like the EU-US DPF and Global CBPR benefit your business globally
- Globally what are the cross-border data transfer regulations and guidelines
