Everything around me helped in my work!

One of my master in the field of PR is Jay Conrad Levinson. I almost read all his books and it 
seems to me one of the most 'useful' virtual teachers that I had. Normal, the parents of advertising and PR parents are not left out. But the reality is change 'as we have clicked'. So J C Levinson is 'the moment'.

I learned from him that people do not buy shampoo. They buy beautiful hair. People do not buy mobile phones. They buy convenience. To people must talk about themselves and about their problems, not about you. Talk about your product or your service will help them.

Do not talk about you!

You exist to provide your public service needs. And always you must discover what is important for the public you are pitching. 

All these I learned and I try to respect my master's words!

Of course I have my own vision. I am 'full' of ideas; I have a 'tuned' brain! But all are my business arsenal. I cannot reveal it.

All the best!
