For CMOs to Be Visionary Leaders, They Must Have a P&L Mind-set
|Scott Davis
Walmart's Stephen Quinn has it. So does Adobe's Ann Lewnes. Steve Meyer of Dell services and Cammie Dunaway of Nintendo have it too.
"It" is a P&L mind-set: a deep understanding of and/or hands-on experience with what it takes to run a business line and deliver the numbers. It's a mind-set critical for senior marketers to develop or sharpen if they expect to advance from being order takers or sales supporters to enterprise-wide, visionary leaders.
Data without insights is a waste of research dollars and efforts. Similarly, having insights without an understanding of economic impact ultimately shortchanges the organization. That's why a P&L mind-set is no longer optional, at a time when marketing must continue to drive both near-term and long-term results.
The good news for marketing heads without direct P&L experience is that a P&L mind-set is not necessarily tied to P&L ownership. Stephen Quinn of Walmart had that responsibility at PepsiCo, Johnson & Johnson and other leading package-goods companies. But his view is that CMOs who are freed from direct P&L responsibilities -- the forecasting, the financial planning, the reporting systems -- are in a far better position to focus on the customer and across the enterprise, adding horizontal value to the organization, vs. the vertical P&L value.
In interviewing him for my latest book, "The Shift: The Transformation of Today's Marketers into Tomorrow's Growth Leaders," I learned that Quinn's perspective is that the customer will always be more important than controlling the P&L. But he also says marketing leaders won't have the credibility to initiate the types of conversations that need to be had to truly grow the business if they haven't mastered the dynamics of a P&L.
On the other hand, Adobe's Ann Lewnes embraces her P&L ownership. Her view is it's a natural extension of marketing's go-to-market strategy, and she's on the hook in a big way. Lewnes owns traditional marketing, as well as having P&L responsibility for Adobe's largest vertical, education, as well as e-commerce.
Lewnes says she believes it makes her more credible and more conversant. Owning a P&L, she says, helps marketers get to the place where they understand the product and the customer in an intimate way, enhancing their ability to be a credible resource for the business.
But the debate is not so much about current ownership or past P&L responsibilities prior to taking on a leading marketing role. More important, it centers on whether a P&L orientation has been built or not and whether you are a traditional, tactician marketer or truly a P&L-led, visionary marketer.
With a P&L mind-set, visionary marketers can take insights gleaned from the data they collect and turn those insights into action -- new products, new programs, new pricing, new segments to pursue -- with commensurate economics tied to each. With a P&L mind-set, visionary marketers can credibly step up to the plate and be catalysts in setting the growth agenda. And, with a P&L mind-set, leading marketers can forge relationships with sales and finance, driven by a common language not spoken in most companies today.
So, without direct P&L experience or depth, can traditional or tactician marketers shift their orientation toward having a P&L mind-set? Here are a few suggestions from leading CMOs.
Scott Davis is a senior partner of Prophet, a global consultancy that helps senior management more effectively use branding, marketing, design and innovation to drive profitable growth. This article is based on his new book, "The Shift: The Transformation of Today's Marketers into Tomorrow's Growth Leaders" (Jossey Bass).
1. Understand the business inside and out. Become an operator, ring the register, spend time in the field with employees and customers, develop a deep understanding of the different ways your company makes money and your customers' different needs and wants. Pam Butcher was corporate VP-marketing and sales at Dow prior to her current VP-general-manager role, and says her time in the field with customers was worth "a lifetime of other types of training."
2. Conduct any business dialogue from a strategic perspective. Articulate precisely how your ideas will enhance and drive the growth agenda and bottom line. Stop talking about your marketing budget and start talking about the company's growth budget. Barry Judge, CMO of Best Buy, has said, "I want to put our money where we have the best chance of improving the overall business (whether it is in marketing's domain or not)."
3. Form deep alliances with sales, finance, human resources, information technology and individual business units. Doing so will drive your own credibility as well as contribute to organizational success. Beth Comstock, senior VP-CMO of GE, says one of her most important relationships in terms of driving forward both the growth and marketing agenda is with GE Vice Chairman-CFO Keith Sherin.
4. Seek out small P&L wins and market them throughout your organization. Be open to diverting traditional marketing funds into initiatives that, for instance, enhance the customer or employee experience, as Best Buy and Carlson Hotels have done in the past.

Moving on from Porch
First off I want to thank all of you crazy cats for your texts, messages, GIFs, and virtual love. It's been quite the week. Hell, it's been a crazy few months.
For those that haven't heard, I've recently left Porch. This past week they announced a shift in strategy which, over the course of the past few months, made it clear it was time for me to move on. I have a great post brewing in my fingers around the "responsibility of putting yourself on the layoff list," which I ultimately did, but for now let me just say a few things as the dust settles on this crazy week…
Porch has been a fast and furious ride. I learned so much there, some of it was what not to do, but most of it was "on the front lines, get in the trenches, hard as hell, dig in your heels" type work, and I am thankful for it. I am proud of the marketing organization I lead and the marketing we did. I am proud of the team I built, and only wish I could have been there for them this week. This team, and the extended 80 or so Porchies that were laid off, poured their heart into a company with a lot to offer this world. I am excited to see where they all go next, and only hope I get to work alongside many of them in the future.
It has also been a hard ride. We don't talk enough about the hard in startups. But it's there. Building the right product, organizing the right way, leaning in at the right time, pausing in others. Startups are hard. And I don't think there is an honest entrepreneur out there that would say otherwise. All we can do is make the best decision through a blend of instinct and data, be kind as we make them, and do better the next day.
I am excited to see what Porch does with their recent technology acquisition and the recent talent they've added to the team. There are so many great people at Porch. I wish them the best of luck as they roll into this next year.
Many of you have asked me what's next. First and foremost, I'll be taking a little while off. I am fortunate to have the chance to pause, reflect, and really choose the next adventure with intention. It's been over 7 startups, 100+ speaking gigs, tens of thousands of miles traveled and 12+ years of marketing since I've done that. It's well overdue. I am excited to talk to the movers and shakers out there, both in Seattle and outside of it, to see what everyone's been up to this past year and a half. I'll also be sneaking in some time back home to Vermont because I have two cute nephews that I am dying to spend some time with. Cody & Easton – see you soon!
In the meantime, if you want to grab coffee, do a mid-day yoga class (they actually have these! I've always wanted to go!) or just talk startup lessons and life – let's do it.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you all have a WONDERFUL celebration with your families! I know holiday's can be hard for us IFers (especially for those of us who will be surrounded by children and babies on Thursday!) but I hope that you all can enjoy your family and be thankful for everything you DO have in your life!
My husband and I will be hosting 15 people at our apartment on Thursday. Yup…crazy I know! Not only that, but we'll have 6 people sleeping in our house this weekend and another 4 at a nearby hotel! We host either Easter or Thanksgiving at our place every other year. It's nice to have a break from holiday traveling every once in a while! I'm very excited for everyone coming and for the food, and for the fun! We have 21 pounds of turkey set to go! I've baked about 6 pumpkins to make pies and other yummy food with. People will also be bringing food, so thankfully (see what I did there?) we won't have to make all of the feast!
While I'm extremely happy to not have to travel and that we are having so many relatives and friends over, there is one problem: when to do the BD?? According to FertilityFriend.com (which I have been diligently putting my BBT's into everyday for tracking) my possible big-O day is Wednesday. Luckily most of our house guests will not be in yet, but 1 will. Not only that, but FF is estimating based on a "normal" woman's cycle…as this is my first cycle diligently using FF, they have know way of know what my reg cycles are like, and frankly, neither do I. This is my first cycle on the Metformin, so I have no idea what will happen. I started doing OPK's on Sunday…so far the elusive 2nd line has evaded me. This could mean that if things go according to my hopeful plans, the DH and I may have to BD with 6 guests in our house…yeah. Awkward. Have any of you ever come up against this problem? What do you do?? Do we just hope that my O day is AFTER thanksgiving? I'll keep tracking, and I'm not really sure that I WILL ovulate this cycle, but you never know. Any advice?

Dale NelsonPosted on 08/02/2015
Such a fun design. All of the furniture in my house is so boriiiing. I had to step it up and find something unique. Enter the Pelham Paragon. I love the box shape. I love the fabric, I chose Radiance Wan. I got the legs in Medium Walnut. When the chair arrived, I felt like I had designed the whole thing myself. It has such a unique, personal feel that it motivated me to step up my interior design game and make my house a little more presentable.

Serbian National Council of the North of Kosovo and Metohija
Unprovoked attack against unarmed Serbs at the administrative crossing Jarinje, is a fascist-like act of American and German members of NATO. Together with EULEX, NATO has a role of the military service to Albanian separatists, as well as being an armed and strong support to the cause of persecuting the remaining Serbs and establishing a criminal state of Albanian terrorists, known American and NATO allies during the 1999 bombing and colaborators of ocupational forces in the WWII.
NATO has committed crime against Serbs in Jarinje, and the reaction of Serbian state leadership, is to call the unarmed participants of peaceful protest on the barricades, by order of the West, for "restraint", is rough, unsustainable and very harmful substitution of theses for the Serbs.
Following such unsustainable statement from the President of Serbia, following an armed attack of U.S. and German troops against Serbs in Jarinje, the German government immediately resorted to even more open and rougher substitution of theses and shamelessly announced that "the use of force against the soldiers of KFOR, by Serbian extremists, is not acceptable and that Belgrade must send a clear word to those who are responsible for the outbreak of violence." Belgrade did so, but those "clear words" were wrongly and 'upside-down' addressed, so that the call for restraint was sent to Serbs, who were victims of violence, instead of American and German soldiers who fired live ammunition at participants in peaceful protest seriously wounding seven Serbs .
Encouraged by President Tadic's statement, as well as the German government, reacted the European Union, which "condemned the violence against members of the international community in the north," so that the victims of armed violence by the American and German soldiers were blithely appointed as bullies.
Demolition of barricades and armed attack on Serbs in Jarinje happened only a day after a statement by Defense Minister Dragan Sutanovac that "international forces movement should be enabled troughout the whole province," and immediately after an armed attack against the Serbs, the EU said that "the barricades are restricting freedom of movement and must be removed" . In any case, we see many similarities in the statements of Serbian officials and the West, where many stands of Belgrade serve as an alibi for anti-Serb actions in Kosovo and Metohija.
Kosovska Mitrovica,

|Murphy (L) and Perry | Cook County Sheriff
19-year-old Juan Perry of Zion, IL, and 22-year-old Joseph Murphy are each charged with one count of robbery, according to court records.
Murphy was sentenced to four years in prison for robbery in March 2013 and he was given another four years for a separate case in November 2013, according to state records.
Despite all of that, the criminal-friendly State of Illinois decided it would be a good idea to parole Murphy in January of this year, allowing him to victimize yet another innocent citizen on the streets of Chicago.
Murphy lists the Howard Brown Health Center at 4025 N. Sheridan as his "home."
More MuggingsWe've recorded three more robberies in the Boystown area over the past week, but only one is known to have been formalized with a police report.
Around 2:20 a.m. on Monday, a man told police that two men approached him near Halsted and Belmont to ask for a cigarette. One of the men then sucker-punched the victim and continued to kick and punch him as he lied on the ground. The robbers went through the man's pockets, took his wallet and cellphone, then ran westbound toward the Belmont Red Line station.
The victim said his attackers were black, thin, and about 20-years-old. One of the men wore a beige jacket and beanie.
No Report, No CrimeA neighborhood woman told members of the Taking Back Lakeview Facebook group that she was robbed at gunpoint near Briar and Halsted around 2:15 a.m. on November 11.
"I was walking home [and] black Ford pulled up with the two males and [they] pulled out the gun to rob me. They got my wallet and my iPhone. I was less than a block from my place when it happened," the woman said.
"I didn't call the police as I was so freaked out by having a gun put to my face…It was especially scary with the fact I was in a short dress and heels that night. I was worried that they might try to rape me. The main thing is that I am glad to be alive and safe but really freaked out by the whole experience," she said.The woman, who says she did not file a police report, described her attackers only as two black males in their early 20's.

"Just a minute. I know I have it somewhere in here," I muttered, and plunged my hand into my handbag.
The cashier smiled. Blinked.
Bag Braille Round 1 ensued: my fingers reading the contents of my carry-all, feeling for the familiar soft leather of my purse, the harder leather of my sunglasses case, the jingle of my keys. Finally, a slip of paper! David Copperfield like, I whipped that rabbit out of the proverbial hat. But alas: an expired yogurt coupon.
"Just a second. Sorry."
More smiling. More blinking.
Bag Braille Round 2: feeling cloth, feeling plastic, feeling something wet. Another dry crinkle: voila!
Nope. That would be the parking garage ticket from my visit to see my friend in hospital two weeks ago.
Uh-Oh. This was going to require the Shameful Unpack. Out came the presentable top layer – purse, glasses, keys, cellphone.
Then the clutch diaper bag. Then lip balm. Then the lip balm lid.
Then the keep-my-kids-busy-in-the-restaurant crayons. The crayons smell like strawberries. They are King Tut-meets-Madame-Tussads: eerie embalmed wax figures.
A $10 bill (score!). Lollipop wrappers. One lollipop ("Mom can I have that?" -No.) A Q-tip: condition no-longer-serviceable. Ibuprofen. A blunt pencil. A pair of earrings (so THAT's where I put those!) A tampon ("Mom what's that? – a barbie pillow. "Can I have it?" -No.) A church bulletin. Sticks of gum (preemptive strike from the mama: No, you may not have any. Don't even ask). A toy helicopter. A comb. The bottom layer of items is coated in a thin veneer of cheerio dust. a post-it with an address (dang it! I was supposed to write!) A handful of old raisins and cheerios, which must have valiantly escaped a confiscated snack trap. A bobby pin.
But no receipt. "Sorry," I mutter. "I'll have to return this another day."
Move aside Forrest Gump. Life is like a woman's handbag: you never know what you're gonna get.

Let me start by clarifying a couple of things. First of all, stuff I intend to cover here is pretty basic and familiar to anyone who's been wargaming for a while. Second, the way I handle GHQ hexes isn't the only way to do it, nor is it the right way to do it, it's just the way I do it. When I decided to use those hexes, my goal was to get functional and flexible terrain setup, quickly and with minimum fuss. Thus the techniques I use are really very simple. If you think that there are better ways or could give me some advice about how to improve my results, any comments are appreciated.
OK, with that out of the way, let's move on. Basic hexes are just that -basic plain, probably green terrain. 1/2 inch thick tiles are perfect for that type of hexes and you will need a whole bunch of those. I would say that two packs, total of 48 hexes, is pretty good amount for basic setup.
Besides the tiles, you'll need following materials:
- Paint - don't bother with the expensive, artistic stuff. Find a DIY shop and grab a good sized jar of acrylic wall paint. It's much cheaper and it's thick, so it protects the hex pretty well.
- Sand - in my opinion, texture of expanded polystyrene is pretty unattractive, so I prefer to cover my hexes with sand. I got mine from pet shop, 5 kg of sand intended for the bottom of an aquarium, which is enough to cover thousands of hexes.
- Flock - since I wanted to have green, grassy hexes (standard for wargaming terrain), I needed flock and a lot of it. Stay clear from the stuff from Nine Force Gale and Warpainter, their small jars of flock are very nice, but they are insanely overpriced. GHQ provides its own brand of flock, but it's a bit hard to find in Europe, so the simplest solution is to find a model railroad shop and get as large bags of flock as possible from one of the major producers. Faller, Woodland Scenics or Noch will probably work equally well and big bags of flock from one of them is probably the cheapest alternative short of making flock from scratch (and who would want do that).
- PVA glue - common white glue, commonly available in DIY shops. Grab a big bottle, you'll need it.
- At least one medium sized flat brush - the kind with synthetic bristles, normally used for wall painting.
And here's how I do my basic tiles:
- Paint the tile with wall paint.
- Cover the hex with sand, wait for couple of seconds so that the sand sticks to the wet paint. Next, pour the excess sand back into its container. Leave for at least couple of hours for the paint to dry.
- Since the sand I use is orange-red, I have to paint the tile again to get more suitable base color. If you use more naturally colored sand, you may want to skip this step.
- Once the paint is dry (again), I next flock the top of the tile. Pour some PVA glue into a container, add some water (normally I go for 3 parts glue and 2 parts water) and mix it together. Cover the part of the hex that is to be flocked with the glue/water mix and cover it with flock. Wait for couple of seconds and pour excess flock back into its container. Let the glue dry completely.
- Paint over the flock with mixture of glue and water again. This will harden the flock and fix it to the surface of the tile. At that stage I also sprinkle the hex with another shade of flock in an irregular pattern to break up the monotony of same color, but it's a question of personal taste and can be skipped. Once again, leave the tiles to try.
Main stages of basic tile "production"
Some final thoughts... If I had to do it all over again, I would have painted sides of the hexes in color that is as close as possible to the color of the flock. Why? Well, for some unexplainable reason GHQ doesn't bother to cut their hexes precisely, with the end result being that the hexes don't align perfectly. This means that once the tiles are set up on the table, there are gaps between them. As can be seen in the pictures I've posted before, those gaps are quite visible when the paint on the sides is of different color than the flock. I believe that this rather unaesthetic visual effect can be reduced if the paint on the sides of the hexes is of same color as the flock.
Also, in case you haven't already figured it out on your own, working with one tile at a time isn't very efficient. I usually work with one pack of tiles at the time, one step at the time.

Thought I'd post up the Work-In-Progress Cessna interior cabin. I've started modeling the exterior model for the Learjet, but didn't neglect to come back and do some more work on the cabin for the Cessna. I'll have some imagery for the Learjet within the next day or two. 850 polygons for the interior Cessna cabin so far.

We had a great stay. Loved Barcelona. Much nicer than Madrid and so much more fun. The apartment was great. A couple things that could be better. The bath was pretty filthy and needed to be cleaned by my wife before we used it. The TV in the lounge room isn't plugged in so it doesn't work. There is a bit of noise from the people upstairs. Outside of that, the location is great and the place is very well laid out.PEP ()

Amazing property. Have some room to grow: map for guests to take/use, local phone or concierge to help us make reservations. Wifi did not work most of the time. We still enjoyed our stay very much.ANGEL (Vereinigte Staaten)

The apartment was centrally located in Barcelona and in excellent condition. The owner could not have been more helpful. I would certainly stay again and will recommend the apartment and your service to friends.JILLIAN ()

I noticed one annoying side effect of the switch. I used to be able to hold down the control key while tapping the trackpad on my PowerBook to get the equivalent of a right click – e.g.: context menus in Firefox and Finder. Holding down my new control key (the key formerly known as caps lock) and tapping the trackpad doesn't work. Curiously, holding the key down and pressing the trackpad button does work though. I almost never touch that button though.
Anybody figure out a way to make it work?
P.S.: I think I'm starting to get ACCUSTOMED TO NEW SWAPPED KEY BINDING AND I'M NOT ACCIDENTALLY HITTING CAPS LOCK (WHEN I MEANT TO HIT CONTROL) AS MUCH.

Essence have done it again with a completely customisable palette at a ridiculously low price. As far as I know, essence are the only affordable brand to have any product like this and it is a solid hit for any makeup junkie on a budget.
There are 20 eyeshadow shades to choose from; ranging from shimmery statement shades to rich mattes. There are also lip products, blushes, bronzers and highlights. Each shade comes with a lid, so if you just wanted one palette to swap out your favourite shades into, you could do just that without having any hygiene concerns.
One thing I will say is that the consistency of the eyeshadows is not consistent, but this is true for most brands, especially affordable ones. The shimmer shades can be slightly chalky, but just tap your brush before application to remove the excess, and it shouldn't be a problem.
Each shade retails at R34,95 and the empty palette also retails for R34,95 (whaaaat). There is also an 8-shade palette, available for R44,95. Essence Cosmetics is available at Dischem and Clicks, as well as online at Takealot.com.

I think Trump's announcement might go something like this…
Donald Trump: I've got some bad news and some good news. The bad news for all you liberals who believe in the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, and Global Warming is that I'm pulling out of the Paris Accord. The good news is that to soften the blow, I'm doing my Maurice Chevalier impression:
Donald Trump [singing]: Thank heaven for leetle girls, for leetle girls get bigger every day! Thank heaven for leetle girls, they grow up in the most delightful way!
Donald Trump: Continuing on with my medley of Parisian hits, here's one of my favorites, and I hope it's one of yours:
Donald Trump [singing]: I love Paris in the springtime, I love Paris in the fall. I love Paris, I love Paris, but climate change is no threat at all.
Andrea Mitchell: Mr. President, Mr. President! If I shoved a hot poker up your shorts, would you answer a question on Russia?
Donald Trump: I don't want to get into a whole covfefe about Russia. The lawyers are handling that.
Andrea Mitchell: Mr. President, some people are saying that "covfefe" is a fake word. But yesterday Sean Spicer told reporters that you and a small group of people know exactly what it means. Mr. President, what's a covfefe?
Donald Trump: Covfefe is a Cartman toe word, like on South Park. On a hot day, it can refer to the weather. In a Chinese restaurant, it can refer to the kung pao chicken. In a Miss Universe contest…
Andrea Mitchell: Mr. President, in pulling out of the Paris Accord, aren't you afraid of causing a covfefe on a global scale?
Donald Trump: There's a lot scientists still don't know. In the meantime, I'm more concerned about causing a covfefe here at home. With the coal miners. They voted for me, and I promised to look out for their interests. That's why we're building a wall, to keep out the covfefe.
Andrea Mitchell: Mr. President, in the budget reconciliation, Congress only approved funding for some steel wool and a Keep Out sign. How effective is that likely to be?
Donald Trump: That was the 2017 budget. In 2018, there will be bigly appropriations for the wall, beautiful appropriations. Meanwhile, I'll be negotiating with Mexico to get them to reimburse us for the wall. Otherwise, they'll have a huge covfefe on their hands.
Andrea Mitchell: What do you say to those who claim that by reneging on the climate deal, America is renouncing its leadership in the world?
Donald Trump: I believe very firmly in American leadership. When it comes to climate change, America is at the front of the bus, while Europe, Asia, and Africa are at the back of the bus. Because we're at the front of the bus, we're in a position to get off first, because the bus is headed in the wrong direction.
Andrea Mitchell: Mr. President, in the course of reaching your decision on the Paris Accord, did you have occasion to study the conclusions reached by climatologists?
Donald Trump: Skin has nothing to do with it! Besides, I don't have time to do a lot of heavy reading — I delegate. My staff put some information about climate change on flash cards, and I distinctly remember that climate change = Fake News.
Andrea Mitchell: Thank you, Mr. President. I'm sure we can all breathe easier knowing that you reached an informed decision.

Magneto Guitars has created a new guitar model as a tribute to the pioneers who left their mark in the course of the past century: the T-WAVE ATLANTIC.
Made of an American Alder body, a Canadian Maple neck and an Indian Rosewood fingerboard, the T-Wave Atlantic has a strong acoustic response and favours the midrange frequencies. The pickguard is made of aluminium with custom engraving and the guitar strings vibrations are captured by 2 custom Charlie Christian style pickups
While the T-Wave Atlantic will certainly be appealing to jazz players, it was also conceived to cross the boundaries to blues, rock-a-billy, country & alternative music.

Latest News
Despite struggles, Miami Heat teammates support Chris Bosh
Late in Miami's game against San Antonio on Thursday night, Chris Bosh found himself all alone deep in the corner with the Heat down four points.
Even though he missed the first three three-pointers he took in the game, Bosh fired away. He didn't make it. It's a shot he will take again.
"He was open," coach Erik Spoelstra said after Miami's 92-88 loss in the opening game of the NBA Finals. "Probably for a reason at that point."
Bosh came into Thursday connecting on just less than 50 percent of his three-point shots this postseason. Still, he was open.
"I mean, they can give it to me, I'll take it," Bosh said Friday. "I'll take any open shot. I just missed a couple. … If they want to leave me open, then that's cool with me."
Spoelstra said the Heat had a number of options on the possession that Bosh took the three-pointer with 1:02 remaining. On March 31, Bosh's three-pointer in the closing seconds was the difference in Miami's victory at San Antonio.
"You know, sometimes you're just going to miss shots," Bosh said. "I understand that. You have to have the confidence and really the know-how to be able to let it go and move on to the next possession and the next shot."
The Heat was able to cut the Spurs' lead to two points with 31 seconds left when LeBron James made a pair of free throws. But San Antonio put the game away on a crazy shot by Tony Parker with 5.2 seconds remaining.
On Friday, Spoelstra and players such as James and Dwyane Wade reiterated their support for Bosh, who said he continues to try to find better balance between his inside and outside game.
"You know what, we'll take that shot," Spoelstra said. "He's been making those. It's an open shot in the fourth quarter. It didn't come down to that. There were more plays going down the stretch. … Look, we're not going to overreact to those misses. He was wide open. He has been making some. He's hit some big ones already."
Said Wade: "We just want Chris to mix it up. Chris is one of the best shooters, especially big-man shooters in this game. He hasn't found the fine line of mixing it up. And that's not always easy because of the dynamic of how many players we have on the court that's live at all times."
• The Heat used 11 players in Thursday night's game after utilizing a nine-man lineup for much of the postseason.
Since Game 6 of the Indiana series, Mike Miller has taken the place of Shane Battier.
"It feels good being back out there," Miller said. "It's about getting back into the fight a little since I haven't played much this season. The level of basketball is at a high level going from Game 7 of the [Eastern Conference finals] now to the Finals. It's a matter of getting back in there and getting your body used to it."
On Thursday night, Battier came in during the second quarter and became the 10th Miami player to see time. Center Joel Anthony came in when Bosh got his third foul in the first half to become No. 11.
"It was definitely good to get back in there," said Anthony, who had three rebounds in a little more than three minutes. "I've always said no matter what it is — three minutes or 30 — I have to be ready and give it my all so I can contribute to whatever the team needs."
• Wade said after Thursday's game that he thought the Heat "were a little fatigued at times, honestly, in the fourth quarter."
Wade, who was 0 for 2 in the fourth quarter, amended his comments Friday.
"I don't want nobody to think that's a crutch, that we were tired," Wade said. "So what? We have to play. I said we looked like a team that came out of a seven-game series in the fourth quarter. We died down a little bit physically and mentally by making mistakes.
"So you have to fight through all that. It's the Finals. There's no other series after this. There's no tomorrow after this from the standpoint of basketball."
Said Spoelstra: "There's no excuse at this point of the year. We're mentally preparing for a long series. This is the final push, and regardless of how we've gotten here, we just have to be ready for whatever it takes."
• James said he had no regrets on Parker's game-clinching play Thursday, one in which he made an off-balance shot that barely beat the shot clock as the game time ran down.
"It didn't run through my mind too much after the game," said James, who looked like he got a piece of the shot.
"It was a tough shot. He came off a pick and roll. He bobbled it, he backed up, he tripped, he fell, and he got up and went under my arm and made a tough bank shot. That's not why we lost the game."
• James, who had 18 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists, recorded his second consecutive triple-double in a Finals game.
James had 26 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists in Miami's clinching victory over Oklahoma City last June.
Thursday's triple-double tied him with Rajon Rondo and Larry Bird for third place on the career triple-double playoff list with 10. Magic Johnson has 30, and Jason Kidd has 11.
James also passed Johnson for 11th place on the career playoff scoring list.
Miami Herald sportswriter Barry Jackson contributed to this report.

The space inside the tooth from the center,which is called as the pulp chamber, which travels down the length of the root to the tip is called a "canal," or more specifically,we can call it as the root canal.The tooth's nerve lies within the root canal. Its only function is sensory,that is to provide the sensation of hot or cold and the presence or absence of a nerve will not affect the day-to-day functioning of the tooth.Depending on the anatomy of the tooth,human teeth may have one to four root canals.Dental root canal treatment removes tooth pulp from inside the teeth, which is essential to maintain our health.
An infection in the root canal of a tooth can cause:
- Bone loss around the tip of the root.
- Swelling may spread to other areas of the face, neck, or head
Root canal Therapy is the procedure of removing dead or dying nerve tissue and bacteria from inside a tooth.This is done if you have any infection that affects the nerve in the root of a tooth . Root canal remove the pulp inside the tooth and then replaces it with filling material and thus can the infection can be effectively prevent.Root canal procedure is done to save the damaged or dead pulp in the root canal of the tooth by cleaning out the diseased pulp and reshaping the canal.The canal is filled with a rubber like substance, which is called gutta–percha or another material to prevent the recontamination of the tooth. Then the tooth is permanently sealed, with possibly a post and/or a crown made of porcelain or metal alloy and this enables patients to keep the original tooth as before.
As compared to other countries like Canada, USA,UK,the root canal treatment cost is very low in India.This Root Canal Treatment includes both surgical and non surgical treatments based on the condition of the teeth.The root canal surgery is effectively done in Dentique, the dental clinic at Calicut at a lower rate and with a great care under the guidance of Dr Hiba Ali.

An arrhythmia is a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat. It means that your heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an irregular pattern. When the heart beats faster than normal, it is called Tachycardia. When the heart beats too slowly, it is called bradycardia. The most common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation, which causes an irregular and fast heart beat.

For nearly 10 years, Itera has offered project deliveries based on a nearshore hybrid delivery model. These projects are carried out by teams composed of local consultants in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, and with consultants from Slovakia and Ukraine.
Our hybrid delivery model supports a comprehensive range of engagement models from team extension, to fixed price projects and SLA's. At Itera, we have integrated our hybrid delivery model seamlessly into our Nordic organization.
We use the Resource Pyramid methodology to analyze and proactively improve our customers' organizational efficiency. We do this by combining a variety of junior-, middle- and senior-level consultants across borders. The Resource Pyramid ensures efficient allocation, deployment, and utilization of resources.
Built to adapt with a two-speed approach
In today's disruptive environment, delivery strategies need to move away from "built to last" to "built to adapt". Itera's hybrid model supports a two-speed (or bimodal) approach. This is in order to keep up with the ongoing digital evolution, and still ensure a controlled level of risk. Regardless of location, all Itera offices are based on the samt organizational structures, and all Itera employees apply the same skilled, agile methodology and business framework for managing customers, data, processes and employees.
Sourcing. With Itera's hybrid delivery model you'll get access to skilled Eastern and Central European IT consultants. Our nearshore delivery centers are located in Bratislava (Slovakia) and Kiev (Ukraine). It is only a 2-3 hours flight away from the Nordic capitals and on the same time-zone, which assures consultants' availability within normal business hours.
Processes. Itera applies one governance model that ensures effective collaboration between cross-border teams on strategic, tactical and operational levels.
Culture. Eastern European culture and way of doing business is comparable to Scandinavian. Furthermore, all consultants pass comprehensive due diligence to assure compliance with ONE Itera culture. Only skilled, passionate and innovative people join Itera. Powered by local resources, our hybrid delivery model eliminates any possible cultural barriers with our customers.
Team Confidence. Within the hybrid delivery model, multiple consultant retention measures are in place assuring attrition level close to five percent. Supported by strong focus on knowledge management, and effective on- and off-boarding, scaling and rotations do not have any negative impact on business, and assure effective collaboration and predictability.
Security. Because Itera has many customers in the banking and insurance sector, we were the first Nordic vendor to implement Binding Corporate Rules (BCR). This means we are able to make intra-organizational transfers of personal data across borders in compliance with EU Data Protection Law. Moreover, this approval releases our customers from carrying out application process with the national data protection authorities. Last but not least, we engage fully with other international bodies and communities in the countries in which we are present, including with chambers of commerce, European Business Associations (EBAs) and other bodies.
Why hybrid delivery?
- Scalability, Flexibility and Efficiency. It can often take up to two weeks from project request to having the right resources available to the customer. By using the hybrid delivery model, we'll be able to offer the ideal resources in an instance,which will result in a reduce in risks, inefficiencies, re-work, and expenses.
- Success guaranteed. Mature processes assure 99+ percent success rate for Itera hybrid projects.
- Be heard and understood. Our teams outside Norway share the same values as our customers in Norway, on all levels from company management to individual consultants. This means that we listen, understand and know our customers.
- Continuity. Project deficiency is less than 5%, and replacement processes assure no lack in service quality or performance. We guarantee no security incidents related to customer data loss, damage or disclosure.

When you're Darth Vader, you don't just fly around in any old TIE Fighter. Even though it only appeared in the first movie, Vader's special TIE Advanced spacecraft with its distinctive bent wings became as emblematic of the Sith Lord as his crazy emphysemiac breath mask. And so for Kenner, just as they released Luke's X-Wing Fighter, Vader's TIE wasn't far behind in the product queue.
The box on my example is a little the worse for wear, but it came from the childhood collection of my wife's American cousin, Austin, so has some sentimental value.
Typical 1970s kids on the box with bowl haircuts and tight-fitting turtlenecks. We all had them...
Perhaps the copywriter responsible for the box text put "LASER" in all-caps and quotes because he or she was mindful that "Laser" is actually an acronym: "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation." However, he or she also wrote "SOLAR PANELS" in all caps so my theory may not hold.
In fact, the theory that the Kenner copywriter was some sort of science enthusiast is probably bunk, since "Space Sound" has to be an oxymoron...
Since the DV TIE was released along with the first twelve figures, it makes sense that only the Sith Lord and Stormtroopers appear on the box. Although, having said that, the Kenner package designers could be notoriously parsimonious with the variety of figures they featured.
This fantastic and widely used image also appears on the box art. Unusual, since most packaging features only images of the toy itself.
Speaking of which... here it is. Of course, as we all know, the DV TIE differs from the standard TIE Fighter only in colour of plastic moulding and its special wing design.
I love to set up the tableau from the box photo and it's usually possible to do without using any figure stands or other props - just letting the figures stand on their own. However, in this case, the Troopie* at far right was posed in mid-stride and my figures just don't stand that way without help!
You'd think that a Force-choking maniac waving a lightsaber would get these guys' attention, but no. Two of the Stormtroopers are seemingly engaged in a deep conversation while the third is strolling around nonchalantly. Such is life on the Death Star I suppose.
Typical copyright info, appearing with subtle differences across the Kenner range of TIE variants.
The view from the cockpit. Imagine drawing a bead on Red Five and letting him survive to blow up your ultimate space station death weapon? That had to have kept Vader up at night.
*"Troopie" is a nickname coined by Skye Paine of the Star Wars Collectors' Archive podcast with the intention of having it "go viral". Please don't EVER use it to refer to Stormtroopers. I did once, but I think I got away with it...

Youngsters have been trespassing on the Whitby to Middlesbrough railway line and throwing items at passenger trains – and they are being warned to stop.
PC Gary Sykes of British Transport Police wants people to be aware of the dangers and the possible consequences of trespassing or committing other offences on the railway.
"The nights are getting warmer now and people are out longer and later," he said.
"We need to nip this in the bud and make everyone aware so they're not getting themselves in danger.
PC Sykes said the British Transport Police will be out and about visiting schools locally to drum home the message that rail lines can be dangerous.
He said there had been reports of youngsters picking up trackside items like ballast and stone, and throwing them at trains.
"They are not pebbles and if they hit the train window, they will go through," he warned.
"Whitby and Ruswarp are not major problem areas, but people think it's fair game to cross the line.
"There are certain ways to cross the line and taking a short cut isn't one of them."
He said modern trains are quieter than ever and are not easily heard, especially when there is background noise, but can be a silent killer when they come round a corner at 60-70mph.

We both took the pup out for her walkies this morning... I took her for 50% of her normal walk with me then Steve took her for 50% of her normal walk with him so she went for a decent length and it was more interesting for her too!
She did 2 wee's and a poo which Steve cleared up and put into our back yard ready for picking up and putting into the rubbish bag on Sunday evening ready for Monday's pick-up by the rubbish collectors!
She seems to be a bit sore or doddery in her legs so maybe she's starting to feel her age now and we shouldn't walk her as far?

The most notable franchises among these include Red Faction, Homeworld, MX, uDraw, Juiced, Full Spectrum Warrior, Destroy All Humans!, and Darksiders. For the latter, David Adams, CEO of Crytek USA (formed from many ex-Vigil staff), and former GM and Co-Owner of Vigil, posted on Twitter that they're "going to bid on Darksiders IP. Put 7 years of heart and soul into that franchise, and I think it belongs at home with its creators" and "looking to buy Darksiders IP back from
#THQ. The IP belongs in the hands of its creators."
Since those tweets did come from an unverified account, which has barely been used, they didn't seem to carry much weight. Today, though, Destructoid talked to Ryan Stefanelli, Co-Founder of Vigil, where he said that, "When the Darksiders IP goes up for auction, Crytek will be bidding for it. Not much more to say since the rest is left up to courts and legal shenanigans, but we're all excited at the prospect."
Whether or not their bid will be enough is something we'll just have to wait until mid-April to find out.
Do you think Crytek is going to get the Darksiders IP? How much do you think the uDraw IP will go for? Let us know in the comments below.

Dear Anton,
The inclination of your pensive, shadowed head. The figure may be human or stone, it's impossible to know. Though it is rare for public statuary to assume introspective poses. We prefer those we put on pedestals to gaze at the horizon.
The public figure on a plinth leads me to think of its counterpoint; specifically the efforts of those who elevated him. Or should I say, upon whose backs he was elevated. Though it is easy to traffic in generalities. We well know the cycle of elevation and desecration of past heroes, as their ideas come in and out of fashion, and the public contention and violence that results.
In any case, your inclined head implies reflection, which in turn implies a response to an event or a gesture, a fragment of narrative. In choosing images for you, I've been pulled between those that imply a story and those that imply a concept. And when I choose I step away from reason and instead allow an image to arise in my mind. Once it has secured a place it begins to accumulate a weight that is difficult to resist.
All this talk of groups and conformity, of statues and gazes, of empire and eternity. And you in Rome. It's leading me to Tiberius, inclined to introspection, the "gloomiest of men" according to Pliny the Elder, but also conqueror of the Roman north, of the Germanic tribes. And the image that's arisen in response, perhaps inescapably, is of the slaughterhouse.

That evening, when Amelia came tripping into the drawing-room in a white muslin frock, prepared for conquest at Vauxhall, singing like a lark, and as fresh as a rose — a very tall ungainly gentleman, with large hands and feet, and large ears, set off by a closely cropped head of black hair, and in the hideous military frogged coat and cocked hat of those times, advanced to meet her, and made her one of the clumsiest bows that was ever performed by a mortal.
This was no other than Captain William Dobbin, of His Majesty's Regiment of Foot, returned from yellow fever, in the West Indies, to which the fortune of the service had ordered his regiment, whilst so many of his gallant comrades were reaping glory in the Peninsula.
He had arrived with a knock so very timid and quiet that it was inaudible to the ladies upstairs: otherwise, you may be sure Miss Amelia would never have been so bold as to come singing into the room. As it was, the sweet fresh little voice went right into the Captain's heart, and nestled there. When she held out her hand for him to shake, before he enveloped it in his own, he paused, and thought — "Well, is it possible — are you the little maid I remember in the pink frock, such a short time ago — the night I upset the punch-bowl, just after I was gazetted? Are you the little girl that George Osborne said should marry him? What a blooming young creature you seem, and what a prize the rogue has got!" All this he thought, before he took Amelia's hand into his own, and as he let his cocked hat fall.
His history since he left school, until the very moment when we have the pleasure of meeting him again, although not fully narrated, has yet, I think, been indicated sufficiently for an ingenious reader by the conversation in the last page. Dobbin, the despised grocer, was Alderman Dobbin — Alderman Dobbin was Colonel of the City Light Horse, then burning with military ardour to resist the French Invasion. Colonel Dobbin's corps, in which old Mr. Osborne himself was but an indifferent corporal, had been reviewed by the Sovereign and the Duke of York; and the colonel and alderman had been knighted. His son had entered the army: and young Osborne followed presently in the same regiment. They had served in the West Indies and in Canada. Their regiment had just come home, and the attachment of Dobbin to George Osborne was as warm and generous now as it had been when the two were schoolboys.
So these worthy people sat down to dinner presently. They talked about war and glory, and Boney and Lord Wellington, and the last Gazette. In those famous days every gazette had a victory in it, and the two gallant young men longed to see their own names in the glorious list, and cursed their unlucky fate to belong to a regiment which had been away from the chances of honour. Miss Sharp kindled with this exciting talk, but Miss Sedley trembled and grew quite faint as she heard it. Mr. Jos told several of his tiger-hunting stories, finished the one about Miss Cutler and Lance the surgeon; helped Rebecca to everything on the table, and himself gobbled and drank a great deal.
He sprang to open the door for the ladies, when they retired, with the most killing grace — and coming back to the table, filled himself bumper after bumper of claret, which he swallowed with nervous rapidity.
"He's priming himself," Osborne whispered to Dobbin, and at length the hour and the carriage arrived for Vauxhall.

What does your customer think about all the time?
By Dr. Burt Smith April 29th, 2013
A very simple answer to the question, "What does your customer think about all the time?" is: THE FUTURE! The customer thinks constantly about the future. In fact, since you're a customer, too, consider how often "the future" is what you think about.
For example, we may be motivated to get an education so we can have a better job so we can provide for our loved ones so we can retire comfortably and hopefully leave them a legacy of some kind when we're gone. In every decision we make, we are thinking about the future. If we're unhappy in the present, we're thinking about what we can do to be happy in the future. If we're currently happy, we think about how we can keep the happiness going. Think about what you think about all the time and you'll see we all think constantly about the future.
The marketing challenge then becomes finding out what "future" the customer desires, then we frame our value proposition in such a way that it helps contribute to that future. Maybe it's not so easy, but it is that simple.
A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from a simpler system that worked just fine." ─Murphy's Law of Computing

USPS Clothing – Why this is a terrible idea!
By Dr. Burt Smith April 19th, 2013
The U.S. Postal Service has announced it's licensing a clothing line in 2014 as a way to boost revenue and to help reposition its ailing brand among consumers. This kind of thing is a common way for companies who have strong brand equity and favorable brand associations to leverage that brand into additional revenue. So in theory, the idea is not all bad. Harley Davidson, for example, licenses its brand for use on lines of everything from key rings to Ford F-150s. They have a huge clothing line, too, but they are Harley Davidson…Those same folks who proudly call themselves, or aspire to be HOGS (members of the Harley Owners Group), proudly wear the Harley Davidson logo. They have extremely favorable brand associations and strong brand equity as a result.
The postal service? Well, not so much.
For one thing, the Postal Service isn't exactly known as a winner. So who wants to walk around wearing a garment that says, "I support losers?" Or "I dress like the losers?" This ain't the spot you want to be in. Just follow me around the mall when I wear my Dallas Cowboys ball cap and you'll get an idea of what I mean.
At the very least, even if this wasn't a terrible idea (did I mention that I think it is a terrible idea?), it would, at best, be a short-term gain. And when an organization has BIG problems, a short term gain is ultimately no gain at all. It's highly unlikely that a USPS clothing line will become a new standard in apparel. At best, it'll be a short-term fad, and without a follow up plan to put legs under it, collapse is inevitable.
Having said all that, let me also say that it's very sad to watch what has happened to the USPS over the past 25 years or so. I hope they can get back on track. I just don't see this as the way to get there.

A toast…to the AMAOKC (Again!)
By Dr. Burt Smith April 16th, 2013
Sometimes being dead wrong can turn out to be a good thing! When the idea last year for doing an evening event at the Oklahoma City Chapter of the American Marketing Association came up, a banquet-type event (translation: labor-intensive event!), I was skeptical at first, and I said so. I did it in the same vein as so many good past-presidents had advised me over the years when I was in leadership, which was just to say, "Hey, let's be careful…, these things cost a lot of money and it's often hard to find the labor to pull it off, evening events are a tough to get people to attend, have you thought about this, have you thought about that, etc…" Never intending to be a big ol' downer, and I hope I didn't say something like "We tried that once and it didn't go so well…," because statements like that guarantee an organization will have a mediocre future. But, since a not-for-profit kind of has to be able to justify every dollar it spends because it's somebody else's money you're spending, that has to be the big filter through which every decision is made. I just didn't think overall this was a good one. So I just had to get my two cents in. Nobody listened, and that was a good thing, it turns out, because the inaugural Marketini event, as it was so cleverly named, was a huge success. People literally had to be turned away. Plus, the event elevated the stature of the already prestigious Excellence in Marketing Awards by showcasing their presentation in a venue that gives them the attention they deserve. The event happened to be held in the OKC Chapter's 50th year, and since I've been a member for nearly 20 of those years, that was kinda neat to reflect upon. The Marketini had this cool, Mad Men theme and everybody dressed "50s," it was really something.
I might also point out that even though I didn't agree with the idea, once it was green-lighted, I tried to do what past-presidents did for me so well any time I had an idea, and I sometimes had some crazy ones – I supported it. Our company was a sponsor and I spent the day of the event helping the committee with the set up and the Saturday morning after helping with the take down (Side note – if you drive a pickup truck, be careful who knows it! A good line to memorize is "I'd love to haul that for you, but since this is a company-owned vehicle our insurance prohibits it." Then shrug and shake your head slowly while wearing your most convincing expression of regret…). Seriously, it was fun to be a part of that historical occasion and I'll always be proud my financial support and sweat equity helped make it so.
Usually this is where I conclude the post with an action or a marketing lesson you can use, and there are actually several positive, long-range, strategic, branding lessons to be gleamed from my 2012 Marketini experience, which I'll talk about another time. They'll probably find their way into my next book, as a matter of fact, because there were some great lessons learned.
I wanted this post to just be a much-deserved thank-you, because a LOT of hard work goes into such an undertaking.
As the second annual Marketini approaches, a toast to the professional chapter of the American Marketing Association of Oklahoma City and its current leadership. Hear, hear!

How the ancients used to overcome objections…
By Dr. Burt Smith April 11th, 2013
Working to make a sale or otherwise win someone to your way of thinking? Encountering resistance or an objection is just part of the journey. How you handle it will determine whether you are to succeed in influencing the other person or be rejected altogether.
An old (let's instead call it "time-honored"!) model for handling objections is the "Feel, Felt, Found" model. It uses a buffered, non-confrontational approach in helping the prospective buyer address concerns/objections they have.
Here's an example of how it might be put to work…
"I can understand why you might FEEL that way…" In this manner, we are listening intently, acknowledging the concern of the prospect and treating it respectfully and importantly.
"A lot of my very best customers once FELT that way too…" Customers who were once prospects just like this prospect once had the exact concern. The fact that they are now customers and no longer just prospects indirectly demonstrates that the concern proved to be unwarranted, which can be reassuring to your current prospect.
"…Until they FOUND how <your PRODUCT/SOLUTION> gave them <whatever BENEFIT(s) they are seeking>." The product delivered exactly what the once skeptical prospect who is now a customer had hoped for. You could then present a testimonial letter that further substantiates the claim. There is no better evidence than a satisfied customer.
You could even make it more personal if you liked.
"Mrs. Prospect, I can certainly understand why you might FEEL that way. These days we all have to be prudent in how we allocate our resources, especially when it comes to a big decision like this. Are you familiar with the ABC company? As this testimonial letter shows, Fred Jones, the director of operations for ABC, FELT the exact same way until he FOUND our <Product/Solution> delivered exactly what he had hoped for. In fact, as you can read for yourself, in his own words, he says the product exceeded his expectations. Is it fair to say that that's the kind of return on investment you're looking for, too?"
Granted, that language may sound a little hokey, but this is a framework you can take, customize, and use any time you're working to address a buyer's concern. That is, make the framework fit YOUR personality. It's an oldie, but a goodie!
Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate." – John F. Kennedy

Minibus Hire
Minibus Hire is Available Here at Great Rates And Minibuses of all Sizes from 6 Seater MPVS To 7/8 Seats To 16 Seater Minibuses which come under the category of PSV Rates, 8 Seats And Under Come under Taxi Rates But are not taxis as Taxis can only hold 4 people by law.
Our 16 Seater Minibuses Have a Minimum Hire Rate of £60.00 Pounds And are ideal when wanting to travel together as a Group.
Minibus hire is a popular option for many people travelling in a group because it makes it possible to explore various destinations at a desirable pace. It also makes the travel affordable because the costs are shared between the persons travelling. In order to get the most out of a hired minibus, it is important to use the following useful tips.
The price charged by the minibus hire company should be affordable. It is important to get clear information about how the rates have been arrived at by company. This can be effectively done by asking if the cost includes the services of a chauffeur, if the minibus is executive or standard and other features like, entertainment and luggage space. Getting a breakdown of the costs eliminates incidents of hidden charges.
It is important to find out about the operating hours and days of the hire company to ensure that your travel plans are adequately accommodated for and not inconvenienced. The company should be able to travel to your preferred destination within and outside the country at the time you make a booking. It is also desirable to hire a minibus from a company that can drop off everyone at their doorsteps after the trip regardless of time.
Take a look at the terms and conditions offered by the hire company to ensure that they are suitable in your travel plans. This is to avoid instances where you can engage the services of a particular provider only to find out later that you are at a great disadvantage.
An online search of a Minibus hire company is arguably the best method to get the cheapest provider. This is because you can compare the rates charged by different companies. It is also worth mentioning that there are numerous ways that you can save by transacting through the internet. These include attractive discounts, late deals and a selection of a provider that can offer value for money.
An online search for a minibus hire company allows you to look at various company's online ratings and customer reviews. These are reliable sources of information about the company because they are first hand vies and accounts from its previous customers. it is interesting to note that the information is specific about the points that made a particular customer happy or dissatisfied. Online searches are quick, convenient efficient and easy to use because you can visit numerous sites within a short time when compared to physical visits to different companies' registered offices.
If you intend to travel with persons with physical disabilities, make sure to inform the minibus hire company about it and ask for a vehicle that can easily accommodate their entry and exit without inconveniences.
The age of the minibus you intend to hire should be known in order to avoid instances of inconveniencing breakdowns that are common with aged vehicles. Ensure that you only deal with a company that invests in new vehicles and has a policy of properly maintaining their fleet. It is desirable if the minibus hire company has several types of vehicles to offer its customers to enable you to select an appropriate vehicle.
Before hiring a minibus, it is imperative to ascertain the number of persons to be transported and the luggage to be carried. This is to ensure that the minibus you intend to hire has enough capacity to handle the weight.
If your journey is long, make sure that the minibus has enough legroom to provide comfort for everyone. Travelling through hot or cold areas can cause discomfort to many travellers. It is, therefore, important to hire a minibus that has reliable air conditioning systems to ensure comfort for everyone. It is always advisable to carry sunglasses with you during the trip to reduce glare in a sunny day if the selected minibus has no tinted windows. Travel insurance is also desirable because incidents and accidents happen without warning, which makes it important to have some kind of protection against financial losses that could result.
In conclusion, the above tips are essential if you intend to find a suitable vehicle for your holiday travel when in a group. They are to make you get an unforgettable experience in a minibus hire vehicle.
