Business was down in Shneider’s taylor shop in Brooklyn so he made God an offer. I’ll make you a partner if you help me out, he prayed. He hears a thundering voice say ”OK Shneider, include me in the name of your business and it’s a deal" Shneider quickly changes the sign on his taylor shop to say "God & Shneider" and business takes off. A few years and several new franchises later Shneider decides to branch out into the big city. He opens a big store on Fifth Avenue in New York and calls it "God and Shneider." It flops, he loses everything. “God, what did you do to me?” That same thundering voice says "Shneider, this is the big city, you need to upgrade your image, call it Lord and Taylor" The rest, as they say, is history.

People have asked me for an explanation of Marketing. Perhaps the following analogies will help clear it up: You’re on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses you’re passing.

A man was out driving, when he came across a flock of sheep. He got out of his car, and walked over to the shepherd tending the sheep. He asked, "Are you a betting man?" "Why do you ask?", said the shepherd. "I’ll bet you $20, to one of your sheep, that I can guess the size of your flock.", he said. "You’re on", said the shepherd, "How many sheep have I got?" "367", came the answer. "That’s amazing," exclaimed the shepherd, "You’re absolutely right! go and pick yourself a sheep." Having claimed his prize, the man was walking away, when the shepherd called out to him. "How about another bet- double or nothing.", he challenged. "What’s the bet?", said the man. "I’ll bet you that I can tell your occupation, and who you work for." "That’s a bet." said the man. "What do I do?" "You’re a marketing consultant, and you work for the government.", said the shepherd. "That’s amazing," said the man. "How did you figure that out?" The shepherd smiled. "Put down my dog, and I’ll tell you." From: Jim Wright | ||||||||||||||||||||
