I have felt that talking about the subject is beyond the dead horse.<br />
<br />
I have always believed there are those who do it right and those who do it wrong.<br />
<br />
That it is essentially simple.<br />
<br />
For months now I have not chimed in about this industry or the players within it and for the most part, I had no intentions of doing so.<br />
<br />
In light of reflecting on the past year, this has changed.<br />
<br />
I can not ignore the fact that chaos is breaking out across political, military and social dynamics in many of the worlds super powers and smaller countries alike. Terrorist attacks and the horrors of gun related tragedy are commonly found in the headlines of both mainstream and alternative news networks daily content.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://expertlaserservices.com/managed-print-services/page-after-page-managed-print-services-programs/" target="_blank">Need a Managed Print Services Program? </a></h2>
<br />
The world is burning...<br />
<br />
So what does this all have to do with <a href="http://expertlaserservices.com/managed-print-services/page-after-page-managed-print-services-programs/" target="_blank">managed print services</a>?<br />
<br />
Control and dominance.<br />
<br />
As MPS evolves, the enterprise level players push BPO, print volume caps, excessive monitoring and auditing and various other dynamics on end users so that the share holders and CEOs of massive corporations can squeeze every last cent out of a previously ignored element of these companies expenditures.<br />
<br />
While this is not always the case, nor is it always done with an iron fist, I can not help but to notice how some of these tactics have a very "police state" feel to them.<br />
<br />
Treating end-users like commodities that can be regulated like products tends to create a tense work environment...<br />
<br />
I for one have quoted a few software's that allow end users weekly printing volumes to be capped or limited to monochrome only. When I quote such a product I ask the decision maker how comfortable they will be as the point of contact to the angered and frustrated end users who's jobs have been complicated by their actions.<br />
<br />
This always tends to prevent a purchase of said software because all the clients who asked for the quote quickly back pedal after this question is asked.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://expertlaserservices.com/products-services/supplies/" target="_blank">Buy Recycled Toner Cartridges</a> </h2>
<br />
As an MPS provider who's foundation are built upon high quality re-manufactured toner cartridges, my company's CPC rates are enough to save large accounts thousands of dollars.<br />
<br />
The aformentioned surveillance state like elements that create a dictator out of a CEO or VP of IT tend to strike the heart of my clients and so far, none have gone so far as to place these restrictions on their end users but I wonder about the enterprise accounts of some of the OEMs...<br />
<br />
It is clear that large corporations are largely in control of various elements of the united states government and that money above all else (including people) is the driving force for these problems.<br />
<br />
It is the same force that leads the hand of men and women in powerful positions of corporations who would become the gestapo of the printing environment in their company.<br />
<br />
Now don't get me wrong, I understand that end users occasional printing of full color photos of their kids birthday to post in their cubicle, coupons, emails, etc. is something that should be brought under some control...<br />
<br />
That being said, I personally think a company wide proclamation from the president via email (or other form of communication) to the employee base as a whole (the content of which puts emphasis on environmental sustainability and financial effect) would be more effective and less likely to cause strife.<br />
<br />
Some may think these ideas are extreme and that it is nonsense to assume this is happening on any level of concern what so ever. This is not what I have found...<br />
<br />
What I have learned from watching humanity from my perspective as a human being is that once a tendency for a dynamic is enacted in one part of a system, you can expect the same dynamic to appear else-ware. Now, should the motivation of that dynamic be the all mighty dollar, you will most certainly find that dynamic spreading across the system as a whole should the decision maker in charge of said system be primarily concerned with profit over all else.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://expertlaserservices.com/support/request-printer-service/" target="_blank">Need Printer Repair? </a></h2>
<br />
The managed print industry has been a catalyst for many things. I am under the opinion that it can be used as a lens to view the world...<br />
<br />
From where I sit I will say this, If the elite of both the world and the MPS industry take control of the majority of either...<br />
<br />
Endgame...<br />
<br />
This is why I would implore customers more than ever to do business with small providers as much as possible. Choose the local companies who care more about people than pennies. Support small business even if it must be multiple small businesses to cover your fleet across states or countries. Even if it means some logistical challenges.<br />
<br />
At the end of the day if all you are doing is saving is money, your not really saving anything. In this respect, I would suggest a revolution in dividing the MPS market across smaller providers rather than consolidating them through larger corporations.<br />
<br />
There is enough opportunity for everyone and there needs to be change in the system otherwise it will collapse.<br />
<br />
In closing I will repeat my sentiment...<br />
<br />
MPS can be used as a lens, what do you see when you look through it?<br />
<br />

<br />
We are by no means as large or productive as the silicon valley giants listed below.<br />
<ul class="_kYe">
<li class="_AXc">Adobe Systems.</li>
<li class="_AXc">Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)</li>
<li class="_AXc">Agilent Technologies.</li>
<li class="_AXc">Apple Inc.</li>
<li class="_AXc">Applied Materials.</li>
<li class="_AXc">Business Objects (acquired by SAP)</li>
<li class="_AXc">Cisco Systems.</li>
<li class="_AXc">eBay. </li>
</ul>
Just like any other tech company, we are looking to grow and
become a major player in our industry as well as the technology sector
at large. We look at companies like those listed in the bullet points
above and consider their success, hopefully learning from their success
in an effort to replicate it on some level.<br />
<br />
When looking into the current habits, ideas and theories of some of the larger tech company's CEOs however, I have to ask, <i><b>what the hell is going on?</b></i><br />
<br />
From the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2016/04/01/why-silicon-valleys-unicorns-have-regulators-worried/" target="_blank">Washington Post</a>:<br />
<i><b> </b></i><br />
<i>Wall Street's top regulator went to the heart of Silicon Valley this
week to defend the public markets and warn tech startups of the perils
of staying private too long.</i><br />
<br />
<i>Mary Jo White, chair of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, took particular note of the world's
150 so-called unicorns, tech companies valued at $1 billion or more, but
still in private hands. </i><br />
<br />
<i>"Beyond the hype and the headlines, our
collective challenge is to look past the eye-popping valuations and
carefully examine the implications of this trend for investors," White
said in a speech at Stanford Law School late Thursday.</i><br />
<br />
<i> "These are areas of concern for the SEC."</i><br />
<br />
<i>White
did not mention any specific companies, but investors are patiently
waiting for Uber, Airbnb and Snapchat to all go public. They are worth
$62 billion, <a href="http://fortune.com/unicorns/airbnb-3/">$25.5 billion</a> and <a href="http://fortune.com/unicorns/snapchat-6/">$16 billion</a> respectively, according to Fortune.</i><br />
<br />
<i>They
are among a growing group of Silicon Valley tech firms that
are eschewing tradition and staying in private hands, rather than
joining their brethren in the public markets where mom and pop investors
could buy shares in the company. By stubbornly staying on the sidelines
these companies are helping suppress the already <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/us-stocks-are-finally-back-in-the-green-heres-why-investors-arent-in-the-clear/2016/03/18/947eff7c-ed0f-11e5-a6f3-21ccdbc5f74e_story.html">dismal initial public offering market</a> this year, critics say. And now they're starting to catch the attention of the country's chief financial regulator.</i><br />
<br />
Unicorns?<i> </i><br />
<br />
With that in mind, let us consider why this information above is a problem...<br />
<br />
From <a href="http://secretsun.blogspot.com/2016/10/astrognostic-youll-be-godlike-part-one.html" target="_blank">The Secret Sun</a>:<br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This is the model Silicon Valley wishes to export to the rest of America. </span></i><i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/" target="_blank"><i>Atlantic</i></a> columnist Sam Kriss</span>:</span></i><br />
<i>
</i>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Wealth
is being concentrated in fewer hands, we own less and less of our own
lives, and meanwhile these brave entrepreneurs are automating ever more
decent-paying jobs, turning humanity into an ungrateful sea of surplus
flesh, to be connected and quantified but not necessarily fed, because
that’s what progress looks like. </span></i></blockquote>
<i>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>And why stop there? Why not declare war on reality itself?</b>
Kriss writes further that, "the tech industry is moving into territory
once cordoned off for the occult. Why shouldn’t the fate of the entire
cosmos be in the hands of programmers hiding from the California sun, to
keep or destroy as they wish?"</span></i><br />
<br />
<i>
</i>
<i>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">What Kriss is referring to is based on a New Yorker
profile of a Valley hotshot, who reports that to some movers and

For those of you who are
unfamiliar with it, the secret sun is an alternative media blog with a
focus on the paranormal, occult and metaphysical side of the topics it
covers.<br />
<br />
So you may be thinking to yourself, this is all nonsense...<br />
<br />
I can assure you, it is not. The Author of The Secret Sun, Christopher Knowles is absolutely on. point.<br />
<br />
Not
convinced? Let's take look at some more main stream media outlets and
consider the strange topics presented above from another perspective
then, shall we?<br />
<br />
<br />
From <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/tech-billionaires-want-to-break-humans-out-of-a-computer-simulation-2016-10" target="_blank">Business Insider</a>:<br />
<br />
<i>The theory that we might all be living in a computer simulation
has gotten so popular among Silicon Valley's tech elites that two
billionaires are now apparently asking scientists to help break us out
of the simulation.</i><br />
<br />
<i>
</i>
<i>That's according to <a href="http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/10/10/sam-altmans-manifest-destiny" target="_blank">a new profile in The New Yorker</a> about
Y Combinator's Sam Altman. The story delves into Altman's life and
successes at the helm of the famous boot-camp and investment fund for
tech startups, and doesn't shy away from the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/sam-altman-gave-himself-scurvy-2016-10" target="_blank">quirkier aspects</a> of Altman's character. </i><br />
<i>
</i>
<i>In the piece, Altman discusses his theories about being
controlled by technology and delves into the simulation theory, which is
the idea that human beings are unwittingly just the characters in someone else's computer simulation.</i><br />
<br />
<i>
</i>
<i>The simulation idea has gained popularity among Silicon Valley's elite — it's so popular that <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/the-question-elon-musk-refuses-to-talk-about-in-hot-tubs-2016-6" target="_blank">even Elon Musk is tired of talking about it</a>. But now, a few of the tech industry's billionaires might be doing something about it. </i><br />
<br />
For
those of you who are having an hard time understanding what is being
said here, let me clarify things for you. There are very rich and
powerful people in silicon valley who actually believe we are living in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8e-FF8MsqU" target="_blank">the matrix</a>...<br />
<br />
These people are paying scientists copious amounts of money to find out how to break us out of the matrix...<br />
<br />
This
is not science fiction people, this is actually being considered as a
reality by some of the technology sectors biggest and brightest minds
and money is being spent on this endeavor.<br />
<br />
Now in light of the US election consider this, again from <a href="http://secretsun.blogspot.com/2016/10/astrognostic-youll-be-godlike-part-one.html" target="_blank">The Secret Sun</a>:<br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Hillary
Clinton has the advantage of the support of the entire Establishment
(even major sectors of the GOP Establishment), which has now come to
include Silicon Valley and its tributaries. Yet, like so much of the
Establishment, much of Silicon Valley is actively at war with most of
the country, even those with whom they ostensibly might ally themselves
with.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>It's a war of attrition, a sustained and unrelenting attack</b>,
not only on the American middle class (an enterprise the entire global
hierarchy is devoted to) but on the socioeconomic, political and
communication infrastructures of the entire planet.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>Why? Because they can. </b>Atlantic columnist Sam Kriss writes:</span><br />
</i><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Silicon
Valley's) culture is pathologically fixated on the notion of
‘disruption.’ Tech products no longer feel like something offered to the
public, but something imposed: The great visionary looks at the way
everyone is doing something, and decides, single-handedly, to change
it. </span></i></blockquote>
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Propped
up by an endless front of Deep State money, the Valley thrives on an
almost completely artificial environment devoted to the global program
of radical culture-change, through supply-side economies built
practically in defiance of consumer demand. Companies are valued
almost hilariously in relation to their actual worth and burn through
capital like drunken sailors on liberty. </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> </span></i><i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> </span></i><br />
With
all this in mind, let me ask you, what is the inspiration for silicon
valley to go from building innovations such as the iphone, to spending
money on escaping the matrix?<br />
<br />
Psychedelic drugs apparently...<br />
<br />
Consider the following article from <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/robertglatter/2015/11/27/lsd-microdosing-the-new-job-enhancer-in-silicon-valley-and-beyond/#402abd13114d" target="_blank">FORBES</a> and also this one from <a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/features/how-lsd-microdosing-became-the-hot-new-business-trip-20151120" target="_blank">Rolling Stone Magazine</a>...<br />

Tesla Motors and PayPal while Jeff Bezos is founder of Amazon and Blue
Origin. Both SpaceX and Blue Origin are privately held aerospace
companies whose goals are the privatization of space exploration.</i><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Back in 2010 I wrote <a href="http://adventuresinofficeimaging.blogspot.com/2010/10/debunking-paperless-office-myth.html" target="_blank">this post</a>. It was an attack on the idea that the paperless office was ever to become a reality and I stand behind that post and the perspective which inspired it. A week or so ago, I came across <a href="http://www.geekwire.com/2015/paper-back-real-books-rebound/" target="_blank">this blog post</a> which reiterates my opinion that I was right in my convictions. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Based on the facts presented in said article I must reiterate, since the inception of paper people always have and always will have an intense emotional connection to paper. Granted it may be more subtle to the printed page in the office space but, take it away from your employees against their will and behold the sh!t-storm!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">From the Article:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"As Publishers Weekly <a href="http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/bookselling/article/65172-print-is-back.html">puts it</a>,
“the 2014 figures are further evidence that print books are selling
better than they have since sales of eBooks exploded in 2010.” The paper
tome apparently hit rock bottom in 2012, but has since rallied in
categories from children’s books to adult non-fiction, and formats from
trade paperback to hardcover.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students, too, are rediscovering paper. Several studies – including <a href="http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/digital/content-and-e-books/article/63225-college-students-prefer-a-mix-of-print-and-digital-textbooks.html">one</a>
by tech-centric Hewlett-Packard – find a strong preference for printed
textbooks, notably among those in college who have tried both types. In
the HP survey, 57% preferred print; only 21% preferred an eTextbook."</span></i><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Guess who's back?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It's me, the suddenly reclusive (and now shamelessly self plugging) Dubious Monk!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">That's right folks I, Nathan Dube have returned! (at least for the moment and possibly longer). So where have I been you ask? Selling MPS and (GASP) copiers! Crazy eh, Greg? Well to be fair, it's mostly A4 MFPs which are selling like hotcakes....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">So why post now? Do I have new industry relevant prophetic views of the times we live in and the times to come? Am I returning from the shadows to destroy more printers? Well...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">No.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am simply popping in to say hello and THANK YOU to the man, the myth and legend himself Mr. Greg Walters! I must admit, I only just purchased his book (pictured above) recently and was charmed to find that my blog is listed as suggested reading and I am listed as a "Leopard" which if you are familiar with DOTC you will understand, if not... BUY the book!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">No really, buy it. Greg's content always has been cutting edge and ahead of the curve while also being quite hilarious, provocative and borderline offensive (at times). All things that drew me to <a href="http://www.thedeathofthecopier.com/" target="_blank">the death of the copier blog</a> in the first place.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Greg is by far one of the (if not THE) greatest minds in MPS and the realm of office imaging professionals in general. If you are currently in and/or are planning to enter the MPS industry, this is a must read. End of story.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As for me, well... I said everything I wanted to about MPS in the content of this blog in posts past and until something new comes along I will not simply write to just meet the expected three posts per month that "professional" bloggers are called to manifest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When I have content worth sharing, it will pop up. Furthermore, you may see posts from additional authors here should things proceed the way I think they should.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Hoping you are all well and wishing you a happy holiday season!</span><br />

<i><span class="text">"SOUTHBRIDGE — Expert Laser Services, based in
Southbridge, has long been an environmental champion since its inception
as "Expert Laser Recycling" in 1990. But, until recently, there has
always been a missing link in the recycling chain.
<br /><br />"Our process always made us 'the greenest of the green' when it
came to toner cartridge recycling," claims company president Mike
Carpentier. "Cartridge cores are routinely turned 8 to 10 times in our
system. Most programs—even global manufacturer-based programs—get only a
single re-use of cores, then they are shipped off to a landfill."
<br /><br />"Still, like every remanufacturer, we eventually found ourselves
having to toss cartridge cores into the trash. There was simply no way
to recycle them. Konica Minolta's Clean Planet Recycling Program changed
that. They've closed the recycling loop for us. Now we can recycle all
major consumables — including toner cartridges, imaging units, waste
toner bottles, developer units and drums."

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Kermit
sang that “<i>It’s Not Easy Being Green</i>”.
Businesses, homes, organizations, and even countries are discovering that
Kermit was right. It’s not easy being green. Does that mean that being green
isn’t worth it or worse, is it counterproductive? Well, let’s consider the
options.<o:p></o:p>We
can make a concerted effort to make our homes, workplaces, and world greener.
Or, we can continue to waste and throw away whatever and whenever we choose. <o:p></o:p>Certainly
the option to do whatever, whenever, sounds better. It also sounds more
American. It sounds more like freedom. It sounds more carefree. Surely this is
the correct choice.<o:p></o:p> Not
at all, and don’t call me Shirley.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Landfills
are growing. The Earth is groaning from waste and decay. The resources we want
for our very livelihood are dwindling. We really should make every effort to
reduce waste.<o:p></o:p> But
Kermit’s right. It’s not easy. After all, if it was easy, wouldn’t everybody be
doing it? So, how do we make it easier on ourselves and others? There are
thousands of small changes that each of us, businesses and individuals, can do
to be greener. The first is to spread the word, not so much with dialogue but
with knowledge about actions and techniques that actually work. The verbage out
there says that we need to reduce our carbon footprints. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Great! How?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Well,
one way to insure that your business is reducing its footprint is to stop
wasting so much in the way of office imaging equipment and supplies. Simply
put, start recycling your toner cartridges. Don’t just throw them away. Better
yet, don’t return them a local retailer that is going to bulk ship them across
the ocean. That’s not recycling. Think about it. You bring 3 cartridges to the
local retailer. They are stored there, until the retailer has reached his
capacity. Then, the retailer packages them on skids and ships them across to who
knows where. This “recycling” procedure is incredibly wasteful too. It uses amazing
amounts of shipping fuel, not to mention all of the plastic wrapping around the
skids and such, just to move the empty cartridges. How do you avoid that? It’s
pretty simple actually. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Call
a company like ours, Expert Laser Services. We will pick up your empty toner
cartridges and bring them to our local operation, right here in Southbridge,
MA. Wait, that’s not all (I always wanted to say that). You don’t have to pay
us a collecting fee. In fact, we will give you credit, for each cartridge,
towards your next purchase of our 100% guaranteed quality cartridges.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">So
basically, you save money on supplies. You save expenses on staff time and
effort. Best of all you help save the planet, all at the same time! Just by
making one phone call, you have made your business greener. Then, you can sing
with Kermit…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

green is all there is to be<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> It

<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am sure many of you
(at least those of you who still follow this blog) are surprised to see this post.
It has been almost a year since my last one. This is for many reasons. I had
decided to take a break from bloging around this time last year and resume the
craft within a few months. Around the time I had intended to start again, one
of my most beloved friends died in a car crash.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span></span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">While I won’t go into
details, those of you who have lost people very close to you know this is a
debilitating experience. By the time I had begun to get my head together months
later, I simply had come to the conclusion that I was tired of writing about
MPS. Everything I wrote up to that point could be condensed in a short
sentence. “Either you are doing it right and succeeding or you are doing it
wrong and are failing.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This has not changed
and considering the fact that in addition to being my company’s social media
manager I am a major account manager with many contract customers, I simply had
less time to focus on the blog. Furthermore, the content I created with the
destroy your printer contest is timeless and very effective in the sales
process as I can drum it up on my smartphone in real life and show my prospects
during initial sales meetings.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
</span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I simply came to the
conclusion that for the time being the blog would remain “asleep”. I suppose I
am writing today to let any interested parties know that if all goes right I
hope to have some new content up within the year and a few promotional videos
based on the lord of the rings type of mythology and a spoof on the Ghostbusters.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now, you will notice
there is a second author on this blog who has yet to post. Bob Chernisky, Jr.
the son of our marketing manager also wears multiple hats in this company and
is bravely battling through personal struggles in the same way I have while
balancing his other responsibilities in the company.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
</span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It is our hope to
bring life back to this blog in the coming months however I must point out… I
will not be driven by the cliche admonition that I should writing three to five
posts per month. I will write when I feel inspired and only then.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
</span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You see, I
accomplished everything I set out to do when I entered B2B social media back in
2009 and I set a standard in managed print services in that respect, one which
does not touch the mighty echelons of folks like Greg Walters or Art Post but I
never wanted to get that deep in the waters anyway. </span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
</span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I wanted to create
something magical and something fun that reminded people that we are human and
even in the staunch and ultimately grey atmosphere of B2B industrial workings
that we can still find that fun and that magic and use it within such a context
to connect with other human beings.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">
<span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
</span><br />
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">While I did use
social media to sell MPS, I don’t need it to do so. That being said, I do want
to stay connected and will use this medium as a device for such ends.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I had a most unpleasant correspondence over the phone with a prospect today...</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Let's call this gentleman "Bret". I found Bret on linkedin. He was listed as a salesman for a large local company of which I thought would be a great candidate for an out-of-the-box approach to prospecting.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I noticed that Bret placed the role of "Philanthropist" before his role as a salesman...</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
"That is awesome!" I thought to myself as I am currently working on making regular donations to charities and non-profits with the hopes of getting more and more involved with Philanthropy and just generally helping people in need.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
However, my idea (which I thought for sure was a good one mind you) how to approach this man failed horribly...</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Despite this fact I stand behind my actions as mentioned below....</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I thought to myself that Bret's company would likely be a perfect candidate for a managed print services contract and I figured that if I did in fact sign them, I would donate my FULL commission to his non-profit organization which is called <a href="http://www.savingteens.org/home" target="_blank">Saving Teens In Crisis</a> and is a non-profit that upon reading about, found to be truly awesome.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I called Bret and told him about my company, who we are, what we do and said that I was hoping he could put me in touch with his IT manager so that I might do a free managed print analysis for his company with the knowledge that if we ended up doing business together I would donate all of my commission from sales with his company to the non-profit he runs.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
At this point Bret was clearly using intense restraint as he basically accused me of being the absolute worst kind of human being on the planet...</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was shocked, confused and tried to reply as he explained to me that using philanthropy to garner personal gain was a great evil (which I agreed with) as I went on to explain that the motivation for this call was again to donate in full my commissions from business should it transpire between our companies to his non-profit.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
He bocked at me and said "yeah that's a nice angle", Click...</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
In retrospect I can understand what happened He works in sales and knows there are in fact super low-life, scumbag people who work as sales professionals. I am sure there are in fact people who actually scam non-profits with similar tactics.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was absolutely horrified, hurt and at a loss for words.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I took twenty minutes to think things over and regroup my mind and spirit. I then texted an explanation to him as well as a justification for my approach (which I stand behind because my intent was fully in the right place) and notified him that while I understand we will likely never do business together I was going to donate to his non-profit as a sign of good faith, imploring him with many words to give me the benefit of the doubt and listen to me as a human being rather than a salesman.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I do not doubt that he will likely never speak to me again however, I promptly donated to his organization through their website and volunteered to donate time as well if needed (as I had planed on doing anyway before this debacle occurred).</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
So as a believer in emotional alchemy, I sat and pondered all that had just transpired and meditated on how I could transmute these negative emotions and actions into gold....</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is what I came up with:</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have decided that from here on out I will donate 100% of my commissions from managed print services contracts signed with non-profits/charities (who do not discriminate against any social groups of any kind) to said non-profit/charity.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
While this was a highly negative experience it has lead to what I believe is an answer to how I can help more people which is something I have been pondering as of late.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
It is my hope that this post will serve as both a reminder of caution in how one approaches a prospect (even when the intentions are good) and also as a catalyst for a seed which will grow into financial benefits for multiple non-profits and charities.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The above diagram is the tree of life, taken from the Jewish mystical tradition of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Kabbalah" target="_blank">Qabalah</a>. The original use of the diagram was to help one "know thyself" and unite with God via the meditation and visualization of different aspects of God as they divide into the ten sephirot laid over three pillars connected by twenty two paths. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In the above presentation of the tree, you will notice that I have transposed my own approach to the sales process in place of the traditional God names associated with each Sephirot.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
While gazing upon the tree one day, I began to imagine the tree with the left pillar (severity), the middle pillar (mildness) and the right pillar (mercy) as a template for the sales process. Over the past two years, I have developed my own style of sales which being mostly the product of psychospiritual introspection, found the tree would make for a perfect visual representation of my approach.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I believe that sales is first and foremost a game of intentions rather than one of numbers. It is this distinction within my perspective however, that has allowed me to win within the numbers game that sales is...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Via the combination of creative visualization, cold calling, <a href="http://adventuresinofficeimaging.blogspot.com/2012/12/sigilize-for-sales-success_19.html" target="_blank">sigilization</a>, <a href="http://dubiousm0nk.wordpress.com/2012/12/27/emotional-alchemical-marketing/" target="_blank">emotional alchemical marketing</a> and a continued drive to serve others with the intent of helping and improving the lives of other human beings, I have been able to sign two companies that have eluded my sales team for over twenty years over the course of a one week period.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What am I doing differently? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am looking at the sales process as a psychological and spiritual/emotional pursuit rather than that of a financial goal. It is not the commission or the size of the sale that I focus on, but rather how well the customer is being taken care of. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By showing a level compassion inherent within my elevator pitch, daily cold call routine and mannerisms when in a live meeting, I have found that in light of hard work based upon an intent of love projected towards prospects, I am able to naturally attract business to my client base.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope that this graphic is of some use to your own endeavors.</div>

Sigils are a tool used for bending reality, that is to say,
increasing the probability of a statement of intent (desire) to
manifest.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I suspect that I have peaked the interest of those of you
who work in sales and marketing and for good reason. Bending reality (also known as <a href="http://adventuresinofficeimaging.blogspot.com/2011/09/is-marketing-magick.html" target="_blank">magick</a>) is an art form which heavily parallels modern <a href="http://vimeo.com/38226070" target="_blank">marketing and sales psychology/practice</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
The technique of sigilzation which I use for my own sales
endeavors is a take on artist and magician <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_Osman_Spare" target="_blank">Austin Osman Spares</a> version of said craft.
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That is to say that by way of a created symbol, made from
the letters of a written statement of intent, one advertises a desire to their
own subconscious mind with the intent of changing ones own psychology to alter
ones decisions throughout the day in a way which will increase the probability
of ones success in achieving said desire.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It should be obvious to those of you who work in advertising
that sigils are almost synonymous with logos. Indeed, it has been stated that
logos are simply <a href="http://www.popgunchaos.com/2011/01/06/the-magic-behind-batman-inc/" target="_blank">viral corporate sigils</a> which work heavily upon the subconscious
mind of consumers on a daily basis.</div>

<i>In “Pop Magic!” – Morrison’s manifesto on how to be a modern magician –
the author writes about the power of viral sigils. He writes, “The viral
sigil also known as the BRAND or LOGO is not of recent development
(see ”Christianity,” “the Nazis” and any flag of any nation) but has
become an inescapable global phenomenon in recent years.” He further
goes on to write, “The McDonald’s Golden Arches, the Nike swoosh and the
Virgin autograph are all corporate viral sigils.”</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

More Examples: Coca-Cola, Burger King, Disney, Pepsi.

<div class="MsoNormal">
I am willing to bet that you are able to vividly recall what
each of the logos of the aforementioned companies look like in your minds eye.
I am also willing to bet they produced very specific emotions when thought of.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The difference between spares techniques of sigilization and
that of corporations like those mentioned above, is that those done in the
style of spare are used by the individual person to change their world via crafting
their own subconscious feedback where the viral corporate sigils mentioned
above, are made with the intent of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>manipulating the masses subconscious with a desire based upon that
corporations intent.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Basically, corporate logos are long-term attempts of a small
group of people to manipulate the decisions of people en mass, where spares
work is focused on an individual using their own personal symbology to subconsciously affect change within themselves
and by extension, the world as it relates to them and their needs.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As there has been much written on modern sigilization techniques
and while I could write my own guide, I would like to point interested parties
to an advertising professional and blogger who has written an exquisite guide
that far transcends the need for any additional perspectives on such matters
(at least from my point of view) which can be found <a href="http://runesoup.com/2012/03/ultimate-sigil-magic-guide/" target="_blank">here</a>. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I would also advise further research on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grant_Morrison" target="_blank">Grant Morrison's</a> (the biggest name in comics today) work and perspectives regarding sigils, from one article Grant states:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<i>Corporate sigils are super-breeders.They attack unbranded
imaginative space.They invade Red Square, they infest the cranky streets
of Tibet, they etch themselves into hairstyles. They breed across
clothing, turning people into advertising hoardings. They are a very
powerful development in the history of sigil magic, which dates back to
the first bison drawn on the first cave wall.</i><br />
<i>The logo or brand, like any sigil, is a condensation, a
compressed, symbolic summoning up of the world of desire which the
corporation intends to represent. The logo is the only visible sign of
the corporate intelligence seething behind it. Walt Disney died long ago
but his sigil, that familiar, cartoonish signature, persists, carrying
its own vast weight of meanings, associations, nostalgia and
significance. People are born and grow up to become Disney executives,
mouthing jargon and the credo of a living corporate entity. Walt Disney
the man is long dead and frozen (or so folkmyth would have it) but
Disney, the immense invisible corporate <a href="http://adventuresinofficeimaging.blogspot.com/2011/11/power-of-egregore.html" target="_blank">egregore</a> persists.</i><br />
<br />
The thing about many of the corporations who have been using this technology for so long is that they don't really want these ideas available to the public. The archetypical salesmen of the world would prefer you don't open your mind and express your will so much as they hope for you to gladly consume theirs.<br />
<br />
The intent of this article is to provide knowledge and information of this technology so that you can as a customer/consumer be aware of what kinds of subtle attacks happen to you on a daily basis and how you can flip the script on such attacks and begin to craft your reality with your own symbolic expressions of self.<br />
<br />
If these ideas resonate with you I would invite you to consider furthering your studies to include the concept of the hypersigil<i> </i>which is essentially a story or work of art which by way of its fictional universe creates changes in the authors reality.<br />
<br />
Grant Morrison's comic series <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invisibles" target="_blank">"The Invisibles"</a> is an example of a hypersigil. In this tradition, I have also created a comic series based around my <a href="http://adventuresinofficeimaging.blogspot.com/2011/02/destroy-your-printer-video-contest-3_24.html" target="_blank">"Destroy Your Printer Contest"</a> which acts as a hypersigil to some extent and can be found <a href="http://www.adventuresinofficeimaging.blogspot.com/search/label/comics" target="_blank">here</a>.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03452318020405353021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7069247090188487473.post-71123583932246783672012-11-29T08:01:00.001-08:002012-11-29T08:01:38.183-08:00Great Cause, PLEASE HELP If You Can.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i>In the spirit of the holiday season, I would like to tell you a little Christmas story.</i><br />
<br />
<i>For the past three years, I’ve mentored a bright young boy named
Elijah. Elijah is growing up in small, crowded house with his three
brothers and a sister (all by different fathers — none of them are
around). There is also an unrelated 12-month-old baby from another unwed
mother being raised in this household.</i><br />
<br />
<i>I started working with Elijah through an organization called <a href="http://www.amachimentoring.org/" target="_blank">Amachi</a>,
which pairs adult role models with at-risk kids who have at least one
parent in prison. Elijah’s father was murdered when he was two. His
mother was serving several years in a federal penitentiary when I became
involved with the family.</i><br />
<br />
<i>Elijah is fortunate in many ways. He is being raised in a loving home
by his grandmother. His clothes are always clean and he’s never hungry.
His grandmother Patsy suffers from a variety of health problems but
manages to get those kids to school every day. She often works until 2
in the morning cooking and cleaning and is almost always exhausted.
When I asked her where she would want to go on a vacation some day, she
said it would not matter because all she would do is sleep. In my book,
she is a true hero...</i><br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;">Faith is a 21 yr old disabled woman in desperate need of a home for herself, a live-in PCA, and her guardian...</span><br />
<br />
Faith is a young woman (21) that lost her mom to cancer at age 8, and
her dad to HUNTINGTONS at age 9, her brother took her in and raised
her. at age 17 she became symptomatic with HUNTINGTONS (a
neurodegenerative disorder). due to the progression of the disorder, her
brother has drained all their resources, and it has become necessary
for her to have 24 hour care... now the apartment that she currently
lives in has been deemed unsuitable and she is being evicted... which
will leave them homeless by the holidays.... we are hoping to provide a
perminant home and the needed modifacations to provide a safe
enviornment for her wellbeing...<br />
