Regardless of who you are and what you sell, you've got to find reasons to connect with your customer.

That requires thinking differently about people. How many folks do you know that like being treated as just another factor of production, or an anonymous consumer?

In today's economy where that fat has been trimmed to the bone, it's about time we started connecting on the basis of feeling and fantasy, emotion and imagination.
