Article: Slowly, more men are dancing on pointe, including in Seattle

Date: March 25, 2021

By: Moira Macdonald

The first time Ashton Edwards tried dancing on pointe, it felt like coming home. “It was just like magic. It felt beautiful on pointe. I felt like I could dance forever.”

Edwards, originally from Michigan, has been studying ballet since the age of 4, and is now an 18-year-old student in Pacific Northwest Ballet School’s professional division. Those tentative steps last summer, however, were the dancer’s first: Edwards is male, and in the world of classical ballet, male students traditionally do not receive pointe training. But he dreams of a future as a gender-fluid dancer, dancing all the roles he loves.

“I would love to do everything that would fit me as a person, not based on my gender but based on what I can do and who I am as a person, who I am as an artist,” he said.

For those who love ballet, the sight of a ballerina dancing on pointe is an everyday miracle; born from years of training that culminated in ethereal, otherworldly movement. But until recently, the idea of a man dancing on pointe was a rarity, mostly restricted to comic effect in narrative ballets like Frederick Ashton’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” or the all-male dance comedy troupe Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo. In a world engaged in conversation about gender and inclusivity, however, things may be changing in ballet, just a bit.

A Bay Area company, Ballet22, was founded last year with the purpose of breaking gender norms, particularly in the ungendered use of the pointe shoe. James Whiteside, a principal dancer with American Ballet Theatre, makes viral videos of himself dancing — beautifully — on pointe.

And here in Seattle, Edwards is at the center of his own tiptoed revolution: He is the first male professional division student at PNB to take pointe technique classes. “He is quite remarkable on pointe and very committed,” said PNB artistic director Peter Boal. PNB faculty member Marjorie Thompson noted that while some male students borrow friends’ pointe shoes to play around, Edwards is different. “Ashton is a serious young person, and he has a serious desire and he is totally supported at PNB,” she said.

He’s not the only man at PNB who’s comfortable in a pair of pointe shoes. Joshua Grant, a soloist with the company, is a former member of Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo. As a Trock, Grant performed for five years on pointe, fascinated by what he saw as the company’s mission to “blur the lines of what is masculine and what is feminine.”

He’s currently choreographing a new work, called “Bright Young Things,” that will debut in June and feature Edwards on pointe — and that reflects his own love of the technique. For that work, he said, his thought process was simple. “I just wanted to put a boy on pointe! Why is it that women get to have all the fun, why don’t boys get all the fun, too?”

Pointe shoes have been around for a couple of centuries, originally born as a stunt. In her book “Apollo’s Angels: A History of Ballet,” dance historian Jennifer Homans explains that pointe work was first performed by early-19th-century Italian dancers — the first was said to be Amalia Brugnoli — who “blithely hiked themselves onto the tips of their toes and perched there for all to see.” The technique was soon refined by ballet pioneer Marie Taglioni (1804-1884) who smoothed the stunt into something more refined and elegant, darning the toes of her soft slippers to give support.

Later in the century, Italian shoemakers devised the pointe shoe with a hard toe box, made from layers of glue, paper and fabric; it was revised further in the early 20th century, with legendary Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova credited with popularizing a more modern pointe shoe with additional support at the toes and a hard leather sole. But it was nearly always women who wore them, achieving that magical elongating effect.

Grant remembers being fascinated by the soft thump of pointe shoes when attending ballets as a child. “I loved the sound the shoe made when it hit the floor,” he said. In his youth, he remembered watching ballets and feeling that “men always looked frumpy and dowdy, whereas women looked long and ethereal and weightless.”

When he finally saw his own foot in a pointe shoe, “it just took my breath away,” he said. “There’s something about putting on a pair of pointe shoes that gives me goose bumps.”

Men who want to dance on pointe face some challenges, the most significant of which is finding shoes that fit; men’s feet tend to be proportioned differently, and a woman’s shoe in a bigger size might not work. (It might be a bit easier these days: Two years ago, the first pointe shoe designed specifically for men became available, from the Russian company Siberian Swan.) And a taller, broader body might have more balancing issues — though, as Grant notes, there’s nothing natural about dancing on pointe, no matter what size you are.

Male students taking pointe class is new to PNB’s School, Thompson said, but a young man wanting to go on pointe would have been indirectly trained to do so through regular classes. The challenge is the structure of the feet, the ability to balance, to fully straighten the leg on pointe, to have enough abdominal strength to pull up rather than “sitting into the shoe.” All of these, Thompson said, apply as well to men as to women; some female students struggle with pointe due to issues with their feet.

“I think there’s a lot of misconceptions, that men are not flexible and can’t get on pointe,” said Theresa Knudson, executive director of Ballet22. She noted that in their company, “most of the men have better feet than I do.” At a high professional level, she said, “men and women are equal when it comes to taking class; the split is that the men are lifting and the women are on pointe.”

Edwards, who performed with Ballet22 for a digital show last year, was thrilled by the experience of being able to both dance traditionally female roles and contemporary new work. “It was just men, dancing equally as men on pointe, not trying to be women or trying to fit into any binary standard.”

Might ballet be headed toward a future in which roles aren’t necessarily dictated by gender? Tiny steps are being taken: At the English National Ballet in 2018, male dancer Chase Johnsey (a veteran of the Trocks) made history by performing female roles in the ensemble. Wendy Whelan, now co-head of New York City Ballet, commented at the time that “I don’t care what the body parts are, as long as artistically the dancer makes the choreography shine.” In that same New York Times article, she also expressed concern that ballet is already profoundly competitive for women, with men performing in traditionally female specialties presenting another hurdle.

But along with men dancing on pointe, women can learn what was traditionally called “men’s technique” — powerful jumps and leaps. American Ballet Theatre recently changed the names of its classes from “men’s” and “women’s” to simply “technique” and “technique with pointe,” to facilitate inclusivity, said ABT rep Kelly Ryan. Boal remembered a “legendary” men’s class taught at the School of American Ballet (New York City Ballet’s school) in the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s, regularly attended by the company’s ballerinas.

And PNB School managing director Denise Bolstad said in an email that female professional division students who request to take men’s technique classes will be allowed to do so, and noted that the school is “talking about mixing up the instructors going forward, men teaching women and women teaching men.”

Looking to the future, Grant thinks it might be a while before we would see gender-fluid casting in traditional ballets, but said it’s already happening in contemporary, nonstory ballets — “say, a plotless ballet with eight dancers, and you go on Friday night and it’s eight women, and on Saturday night it’s eight men.” He believes it’s the job of art to push boundaries, to get audiences a bit uncomfortable, “and then they can ask themselves why they feel uncomfortable. We’ve done our job by making them feel something. I think we’ll get there, eventually. It’ll be an interesting, turbulent flight.”

Meanwhile, Edwards keeps rehearsing, appreciating the support he’s receiving from teachers and fellow students — “all the girls are eager to help me!” And he’s imagining a future in which he might be able to dance “all my dream roles. I want to do Oberon and Titania [in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”]. I would love to explore all of the movement I can do, with no limits or restrictions. In a company, hopefully. Someday.”

史上第一射手是大近視！？探討NBA球員的視力問題

文／ Simon

看著籃球員在場上飛天遁地和勁爆的體能展現，許多人或是球迷都可能有一種迷思，相信這群「超人」的整體身體素質都是超越常人，「多數人對於球員的基本認知是他們的身體在各方面都趨近完美。」巫師隊的視力專家Keith Smithson說道，「他們在場上奔馳如閃電、跳躍如火箭，即便不是明星，一到場上也是能飛來飛去，因此多數人認定NBA球員也擁有超人般的視力，但這在NBA中並非人人皆是。」

今年初，幾乎斷定是NBA從古至今的第一神射手Stephen Curry發表了一段震驚眾人的話，「我一直以來都是用模糊的視線在投籃，就像尋常人，我有近視。」

NBA的視力問題

2010年，由眼科專家Michael Peters率領的研究團隊發現，不論是先天還是後天，NBA球員中有16%需要戴眼鏡或是需要動視力矯正手術；球員工會在2017年的調查約有30%的球員有近視問題，並指出行動裝置、手機遊戲和社群媒體的發達是造成新生代球員近視問題越來越嚴重的主要因素。

美國知名健康機構從2009年到2016年追蹤112位NBA選手，研究結果顯示，球員花在電子螢幕佔據上的時間大幅暴增3倍，並有許多球員會熬夜打電動和瀏覽社群媒體，研究員Jason J. Jones博士認為深夜使用社群媒體除了會嚴重影響生活作息外，還會有影響視力的負面影響，「不少球員會熬夜上網，這非常傷害眼睛，而對運動員來說，健康的眼睛幾乎代表著運動生命。」尼克隊總教練David Fizdale本季帶領平均不到24歲的「網路世代」球員，也相當擔憂球員被電玩和手遊佔據會產生的影響，「他們比賽或訓練完就會把眼睛一直暴露在藍光下，我很擔心他們有沒有足夠的休息。」

延伸閱讀：球員的螢幕成癮與行銷的網路狂歡談社群媒體如何衝擊NBA

然而，除了基因遺傳或是後天環境造成的近視外，籃球比賽本身也是最容易弄傷眼睛，相較於其他運動，籃球不僅肢體碰撞度高，還會大量運用到手臂揮舞和下壓的動作，因此很容易造成戳傷或撞傷眼睛的意外。根據2018年小兒科期刊的研究，1990到2012年間有16%的青少年在籃球運動傷到眼睛，更別提激烈的成人和職業賽事，除了本季季後賽James Harden被Draymond Green戳傷外，2018年總冠軍賽，LeBron James也曾被Green（沒錯，又是Green）意外碰傷，造成結膜下出血而視線模糊。

2017年，效力於紐西蘭長島隊的Akil Mitchell在一場爭搶籃板中，眼睛被手指插入而造成眼球脫離的駭人意外傷勢，幸好在經過9個月的治療後近乎痊癒，Mitchell目前在法國甲級聯賽征戰，眼睛受傷雖然對視力上沒有造成太大的傷害，但卻給了他不小的陰影，從此以後都要戴著運動護目鏡上場比賽，「我現在沒戴著護目鏡，我會害怕踏上球場比賽。」

而NBA中也有不少球員為了避免眼睛傷勢而戴上運動護目鏡出賽，特別是在禁區討生活的球員，名人堂球星Kareem Abdul-jabbar就是因為很多對手守不住他，就會用插眼睛來當作防守，「他們知道阻擋不了你，就只能要這種骯髒的伎倆。」James Worthy、Moses Malone和Horace Grant都習慣戴護目鏡上場比賽，Hakeem Olajuwon在被Bill Cartwright撞傷眼睛後曾使用過護目鏡，而Amare Stoudemire則是近幾年最知名的眼鏡俠，他是因為曾經因為保護動過視網膜剝離修復手術的雙眼，「眼睛安全不只會影響運動員生涯，更是攸關人生的事情。」

改善視力求進化

今年賽季，NBA現役和史上第一神射手Stephen Curry自曝一直以來都有嚴重近視問題，或是更精準地說，他罹患有圓錐角膜(Keratoconus)，症狀基本上就是嚴重的散光造成視線模糊和無法聚焦，「我的視線都是模糊的，包含籃框在內。」而Curry甚至有時要斜視才能勉強能夠聚焦，因此過去幾年的神射，其實都是在模糊的視線下投進。

為視力問題所苦的球員中，有些球員認為雷射矯正手術太過危險，又認為運動護目鏡體積過於龐大，會積汗和影響視野，因此會基於對場上表現影響最小且風險最低而配戴隱形眼鏡來解決近視問題，Curry就是其中之一，根據勇士隊助理教練Ron Adams的觀察，Curry並不喜歡在上半身帶太多護具，「他覺得戴上任何東西都可能會影響到手感，因此他之前才不戴隱形眼鏡或運動護目鏡。」

但在本季明星賽前的一波低潮讓Curry決定嘗試特製的隱形眼鏡，「我覺得眼前呈現出一個嶄新的世界，從來沒有體驗過那麼清楚的畫面。」戴上隱形眼鏡後的9場比賽，Cuury繳出48.7%的三分球命中率，「我很難想像，如果之前他是在模糊的視線下投籃，那現在有清楚的視線，他究竟能夠準到什麼地步。」Andre Iguodala說道。

除了戴隱形眼鏡外，不少球員選擇藉由雷射矯正手術以求一勞永逸，明星球員LeBron James、Dwyane Wade和Chris Paul都曾經接受過近視雷射手術（LASIK）來改善視力。

甫進入聯盟就極度重視身體保養的James在2007年就決定透過雷射矯正手術來提升身體素質和球場表現，「我的近視非常輕微，但我想儘可能地看清楚籃框和球場的一切。」James也將2007-08賽季生涯第二度場均超過30分以及2008-09賽季拿下生涯首座年度最有價值球員歸功於視力改善，「無論是投籃、傳球還是防守，都是立基在清晰的視力上。」

Wade第一次聽到雷射手術時就嚇的打退堂鼓，除了害怕外，也擔心手術出錯會造成無法挽回的傷勢，然而在諮詢過幾位曾動過手術的家庭成員後，Wade在2011年決定接受雷射矯正，「我生涯只做過幾次毫不後悔的決定，動雷射矯正手術就是其一。」Wade說道，「手術過程不僅一點都不可怕，而且是挺輕鬆愉快的經驗，幾分鐘的手術就讓我看得更加清晰。」Wade現在成為雷射手術的大力提倡者，常常會推薦有近視的隊友去做雷射矯正。

Rudy Gay也是聯盟中著名的「瞇眼哥」，視力差到差點沒能通過駕照申請，Gay試過隱形眼鏡和運動護目鏡，但他都覺得感覺不舒服，「那些眼鏡配件讓我感覺不對勁，有東西罩著眼鏡或掛在鼻子上感覺很怪。」然而在打法被逐漸摸清的情況下，Gay的外線問題被嚴重暴露造成數據不斷下滑，2013年，Gay決定動雷射矯正手術，改善後的視力讓Gay迎來生涯的二度高峰，「沒什麼比看得清楚來得更加重要。」

聯盟中最頂尖的控球後衛之一Chris Paul在生涯前期也飽受近視所苦，且有時也必須得斜視才能聚焦，「只要能看得到籃框，我就覺得當天的視力感還不賴。」但在10年前，他的爸爸和哥哥覺不斷勸他接受雷射矯正手術，但一向疑神疑鬼的Paul始終不敢進行手術，直到他意識到這是個進步的契機，「直到現在，我還是覺得雷射矯正的過程很詭異，但確實很有幫助。」Paul在矯正過後，三分線和罰球命中率都有所提升，「感覺像得到煥然一新的視界，整個球場、弧線和手感都更加明確了。」

視力輔助手感，還是手感輔助視力？

近幾年最接近的NBA的視力研究是杜克大學的眼科中心所做為期10年的調查報告，但他們很訝異發現不少球員近視的嚴重度遠超一般人想像，「有些球員連最大的E都看不到。」杜克大學的眼科醫師Terry Kim說道，「很難想像這些球員如何在如此模糊的視線下仍能命中投籃。」

杜克大學的研究最終發表在《眼科與視覺科學》期刊，他們研究了60位球員，發現有15%的球員需要視力矯正，而這些球員都是來自於強權高中的頂尖天賦，但卻絲毫未察覺自己的視力缺陷，不少球員的視力大概只有20/70（約0.2~0.3），連能在北卡州開車的視力門檻都不到。

然而，即便有嚴重的近視，為何有些球員如Curry仍能在場上呼風喚雨、彈無��發？原因在於籃球並不像棒球隨時需要看清楚155公里火球的軌跡，有時籃球甚至是靜止的，這也解釋部分原因Curry為何能在近視和散光下打球，比起視力，手眼協調對籃球員來說更加重要，「籃球，或是任何運動並不是誰的視力好才就能有傑出的表現，看得清楚不一定做得到，手眼協調的成熟度和瞬間反應才是最重要的。」前美國眼科學會運動部門的主席Don Teig說道。

名人堂球員Dave Bing在他的自傳寫道，他在5歲時左眼不小心被圖釘刺傷，因此整個生涯都是在模糊視線下打球，但這並不影響他的得分火力，曾入選過7次明星賽和1次的得分王，Bing認為視力只是輔助，手感才是左右投籃的關鍵，「看得清楚不代表你有感覺，抓住感覺，就算閉著眼睛我也能投進。」

而另一項發表在《臨床視力測定學》的研究則能從不同的面向解釋為何Curry在近視狀況下還是如此之準，研究中近視的球員分成不戴眼鏡與戴眼鏡兩組來罰球，結果命中率沒有太大的差別，唯一的差別是完全蒙住雙眼投籃命中率才顯著下降，而且研究結果也發現，技術越好的球員，近視的影響就越低。太平洋大學的視力學教授Ryan Bulson認為這有兩種理論可以解釋，第一是肌肉記憶的效果，對Curry這種NBA等級的頂尖射手來說，數以萬計的訓練早就讓身體形成習慣，也就是多數人口中的「手感」，「我們的大腦會排除一些投籃不進的動作，而去記住投進的動作、力道等。」Bulson說道，最著名的例子就是Michael Jordan的閉眼罰球。

而Harden在本季季後賽的表現或許能說明肌肉記憶的重要性，Harden在首戰被Green戳傷眼鏡後，不僅視力受損，雙眼還有視差，然而傷後兩戰反倒繳出45%的投籃命中率和40%的三分命中率，「我幾乎看不到籃框，只能憑著反應和身體感覺去順勢而為。」Harden說道。

第二是由Mon-Williams提出的模糊適應理論（blur adaptation），「當你的視力長期在模糊狀態，就學會適應。」Bulson表示，「模糊適應是尚未蓋棺定論的理論，但多數專家認為這可能是大腦提高了對模糊圖像的分析能力，讓你去適應你看到的自然狀態。」

Texas State大學的運動科學教授Duane Knudson認為運動員並非完全倚靠視力，「動態視力（visual acuity）才是運動場上更加重要的能力，也就是說，看得見快速移動的物體比看的清楚靜態物體來得重要。」特別是籃球這種隨時都在快速移動的比賽，球員更需要橫向和縱向的走位，「動態視力能捕捉球和人的移動路徑，而NBA這種水平的球員早就習慣移位路徑，即便視野模糊，只要能到對的地方，之後就交由手感決定。」「動態視力是NBA中相當複雜且重要的一環。」Smithson說道，「多數人視力越好，投籃也會越準，但有部分的人雖然視力不好，但仍舊有非常好的命中率。」

視力輔助手感，還是手感輔助視力，這有點像是雞生蛋還是蛋生雞的命題，並沒有真實的答案，競技比賽中，視力是基礎，但擁有清晰的視力卻不一定能轉化為真實的戰力，唯有透過不斷練習，讓成果銘刻在身體，並在比賽中自然展現，才是真正球星具備的條件。

Right now we're limited to about 15 No Cost Grocery Programs, with this staff move we could more than double that.

LISTEN TO TLR’S LATEST PODCAST:

By Kody Fairfield

A man suspected of burglary at a Wisconsin gun shop is on the run after allegedly mailing a manifesto to President Donald Trump, detailing his grievances against the government, says CNN.

Joseph A. Jakubowski, 32, allegedly robbed the gun shop in Janesville on April 4, the Rock County Sheriff’s Office said, according to CNN.

“A large quantity of high-end handguns and rifles were stolen and the suspect fled the scene,” authorities explained.

Following his robbery, police found the car that Jakubowski was driving, set ablaze and with evidence that it was done intentionally, Cmdr. Troy Knudson explained to CNN. Unfortunately, Jakubowski was no able to be located by authorities.

Some 150 local, state and federal law enforcement officers were actively looking for Jakubowski, the Rock County Sheriff’s Office said. Additional federal officers have been dispatched to the area, officials said Monday, reports CNN.

Authorities also explained that on the same day on which the robbery occurred, Jakubowski sent a 161-page manifesto to President Trump, and others.

Knudson said the White House has received the manifesto. CNN has mentioned that they reached out to the White House for comment.

The manifesto included “grievances against government and personal angst toward anyone or anything other than natural law or rule,” reported CNN.

According to CNN, authorities released a cellphone video that appears to show Jakubowski at a post office, mailing a bulky envelope addressed to Trump at the White House. The video, which Knudson said was posted on social media, shows Jakubowski’s name and a Janesville return address on the envelope.

Knudson declined to confirm what social media platform the video was on.

CNN reports that authorities have gone through the manifesto, and found anti-religious and anti-government views. As a result, they have beefed up patrols at churches and places of worship, but emphasized that there is no specific threat to any religious group.

“There were two themes in the manifesto,” Janesville Police Chief David Moore said according to CNN. “He was anti-government, and he certainly had his concerns on the federal government, and anti-religion. Those seem to be the two strongest themes.”

A church service at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Sun Prairie, near Madison, were canceled Sunday after a man who looked like Jakubowski was spotted near the church on Thursday, the Rock County Sheriff’s Office said. Authorities were not able to determine whether the man was Jakubowski, explained CNN.

CNN explained that Knudson said he was unaware of specific people targeted in the manifesto. Rep. Paul Ryan, speaker of the House of Representatives, is a resident of Janesville.

“Local law enforcement was keeping Capitol P.D. in Washington, D.C., abreast of their investigation,” Knudsen said.

Beyond the anti-religious and government rhetoric inside the manifesto, Jakubowski also threatened to steal weapons and use them against public officials or schools, said CNN. An action which has caused Janesville School District to enter into lockdown mode.

Donald McLean, Jakubowski’s stepfather, said that while the two are estranged and have not spoken for two years, he hopes Jakubowski will turn himself in peacefully. McLean said around age 17, Jakubowski began hating police and other sources of authority, reported CNN.

“He just generally started hating society, hating police, hating the government, hating rules, regulations, controls, limits,” he said, according to CNN.

McLean fears what will happen if Jakubowski is confronted by police, and has urged his stepson to turn himself in peacefully, says CNN.

“Stop whatever you’re doing, whatever you’re thinking, put everything down and call 911,” he said. “We can start working through the rest of this.”

Jakubowski is considered armed and dangerous. Anyone who sees him should call 911 instead of approaching him, Knudson said, according to CNN.

The FBI has offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.

“All local, state and federal agencies continue to be involved in this search and additional resources have come in from Chicago and Minneapolis/St. Paul Minnesota,” the Rock County Sheriff’s Office said, CNN explained.

It’s unclear what Jakubowski’s goal is, mentioned CNN.

“We know he has put a lot of planning into this, we just don’t know what the endgame is,” Moore said.

Outcome-Based Thinking In Your Marketing

In a previous podcast with Grant Leboff, Promoting within the Electronic Planet and writer of Electronic Marketing: Just How To Utilize Social Networking and also the Internet to Create Prospects and Market More, we quickly moved upon today’s sales channel. He advised me the unique sales channel but still Elias Lewis in 1898 developed the main one generally use nowadays. As many folks are appealed to by us once we can and filter right down them to the purpose of purchase. the Fuller Wash people heading door-to-door processed not really a poor work for almost any system. This and processed much more from cool- callers’ next-generation. Really the only modification within this technique hasbeen further advertising methods created for recommendation strategies’ use.

Another action has been actually obtained by it using the introduction of social networking and electronic and e-mail marketing. Which has generated a good amount of individuals promoting methods. I proceed completely back again to Tellman Knudson the John Kennedy and also the sideway image item start by Walker. I’m up to date with present ideas of Ryan Deiss, Ryan Levesque, Salim Ismail, Verne Harnish, Phil Fernandez (Marketo)and Aaron Ross (SalesForce). We construct Revenue and Advertising Funnels along with other resources convinced that we are able to produce a client/chance from this. I’m not stating some of this since simply by the particular software of some form of procedure, start to become far better and perhaps much more effective and we’re likely to concentrate is incorrect.

Nevertheless, all ostensibly make use of the method that is same; attractive to people that are large. I contact Exhaustion is a Funneled of by this process. With this specific technique, you push lots of info out, wishing it reaches the people that are best. Whether it’s Marketing or Inbound, a great deal is nevertheless hoping happening and spraying. Toughest of it requires a significant amount of cash and time to attract the people.

Within Opportunity’s Channel, we consider advertising within the opposite order. We begin with core proposition and our primary client. With primary clients we start our advertising having a start up, it’s with our; issues commence to modify. We produce a high level of learning possibilities along with greater associations. Hence, we create more company improvement possibilities are able to talk better inside our customers across more stations and and relate solely to influencers. You should be prepared to search heavy to comprehend customers. It becomes about building efficient feedback coils and wedding. These coils become of understanding our method. We make use of this understanding how to supply the clients with more worth and engage together in the related sides of the usage of our items /providers.

Opportunity’s Channel is done from those learnings’ sides. We find out who to interact with-in different businesses and how. We develop upon the recognized toward the unfamiliar. Usually hitting out pressing the sides, searching for adjacency within our areas. It’s not about developing upstream or a downstream in certain channel; it’s about being related within our customer’s marketplace. This kind of thinking is result-centered. To ensure that we are able to be ready for our events a definite result supplies a group of requirements. It generates some limitations for all of US to work-in with these requirements and it’s only a stop since we all know where we’re headed when we struck a.

How frequently would you presume guess what happens your visitors need? How frequently would you produce revenue and advertising strategies internally? Just how much money and time is advertising wasted by you towards the people?
