I believe in the marketing term “Sell Naked”.. sometimes
08.31.07 | Permalink | 3 CommentsThe term “Sell Naked” basically denotes that if you have no clothes on, you have no sleeves to hide a trick in. It comes from one of the clients that we have at my primary job. They are all salary based employees with no spiffs for selling cars. they are VERY well compensated for their 40 hours a week, and thus provide the absolute best service for every person they meet. There is no reason to lie cheat or bend the truth, because they are being paid regardless. this allows them to assist the end user in making the best decisions they can. best for the individual consumer, not the company. as a result, the company is rolling in cash because they are very well respected nationwide.

A poor week for updates
08.31.07 | Permalink | 2 Commentscontent control dept representative Jason B, here to apologize for missing the opportunity to force feed you with mundane garbage pertaining to nothing you could ever want to know.
As you are all aware, fnord incorporated prides itself on providing you with irrelevant information, but this week has been a hellish one for us (read: me)
So here’s the poop on the matter:

Naturally i flipped out and reached for my back ups…. which did not… Read the rest -

PDX Pop Now! 2007 part 2 – link heavy post, pictures below
08.06.07 | Permalink | 8 CommentsThis three day event was phenomenal. nearly 50 bands, no charge, all local. I honestly got finished and was exhausted, yet felt like i had been off on two weekends instead of one. it wars great.
Props go out to the directors and volunteers of PDX Pop, Ilan and the crew at Audio Cinema, THE BANDS who came and put on great shows, and the fans for showing up.
Personal highlights will be covered over the next couple day with recorded video and such. Black Elk Rocked (site / myspace) the fuck out of everyone. The Snuggleups (myspace) played their second to last show for us on Saturday night. Blue Cranes (site / myspace) are an awesome jazz band. bought two of their cds (one for Befril).. they would have to have been my favorite band… Read the rest

On an alternate note, while filming random footage at AC today, i overheard a conversation about moustaches and and profiling them/competing them. I notices the ‘stache on one of the men discussing this and yelled down my pleasure at how cool it was.
On the way home tonight, i saw someone walking down the street, and i turned and said, “your ‘stache is fantatastic”
Wouldnt you know that this happens to be the same guy from earlier?
Suzuki, our friend and i had a great conversation with drew (the ‘stache) and it turns out he is starting a sort of moustache coallition of sorts. a place for the collective ‘stache to go and get graded in a contest like manner, discuss their lip hair, and blah blah blah..
afer discussion, it was determined that this serendipitous second meeting was because i needed to be involved in… Read the rest
