When the rain starts to fall, this colorful drain and gutter system attached to the outside of a building in the Neustadt Kunsthofpassage turn into charming musical instruments. The Funnel Wall is one of the strangest and most enjoyable attractions in Dresden’s student district in the new town. Designed by Christoph Roßner, Annette Paul, and Andre Tempel who all live in the building. This one of a kind building was inspired by Rube Goldberg Machine and makes an emphasis on the pure orchestra sound of the rain.

Funnel House

It’s TRUE!

How could I possibly lie to you after writing an article on Truth? 

I couldn’t.

I’m not making this up.

Apple’s first logo, designed by Ron Wayne, depicts Sir Issac Newton sitting under an apple tree.

Almost immediately, though, this was replaced by Rob Janoff’s “rainbow Apple”, the now-familiar rainbow-colored silhouette of an apple with a bite taken out of it.

Sam Sarkis has hired a full time receptionist (Vice President of First Impressions) to answer his phone and make appointments.

Sam knows that images deliver more than a pretty face. Images build relationships that lead to know, like and trust. Images build business.

Statistically the use of imagery increases response rates by 20-60%.  More bang fewer bucks.

Though Julie will get some phone calls only after you look on the other side of the nail file to see what business she is in. There isn’t enough information to make me want to call Julie.

All things being equal we do business with people we know, like and trust. If I can’t see Julie’s face how will I know if I want to know, like and trust her? Images deliver more than a pretty face. Images build relationships that lead to know, like and trust.

The other side of the nail file says AUTOMOTIVE SERVICES. What just came to your mind? Was it:

• Flat repair
• Roadside assistance
• Tune up
• Wheels & brakes
• Body work

It could be all of those things but without an image it’s a crap shoot.  Statistically the use of imagery increases response rates by 20-60%.  More bang fewer bucks.

Chances are that you are in some sort of sales capacity and if not now then chances are one day you will be.   Each weekday I will give you proven responses to the tough objection of  “Your price is too high.” I don’t care what you sell,  people have been mislead to believe that the lowest price is what they want.  In most cases they couldn’t be more wrong.  It is your job to lead them to the sale at the price you stated because your commission, your salary, your wage is a percentage of that price and in many cases that price also includes the wages of others.

#10   Have you ever figured the price of not having high quality? The price of breakdowns, the cost of wasted time, the extra phone calls, the headaches the repair bills….You see high quality actually saves you money in the long run. Why not order today?
