The irony is not lost on me…
Pretty Cool Use of a QR Code…
They say no one uses QR codes because it is too hard to push a button twice.
I wonder how many non-artists (without photoshop) took the time to see where this leads.
Istanbul’s Berrge Studio tested the dexterity of potential hires by requiring that tattoo artists fill in a QR code to access a job application.
On the hunt for new tattoo artists, the folks at Berrge Tattoo ran an advertisement in a local newspaper, featuring what is best described as the ghost of a QR code in the center of the page.
Created by Istanbul agency Büro, the ad featured copy notifying readers that Berrge Tattoo was hiring. Tattoo artists interested in applying for jobs were asked to demonstrate their skills through an unconventional method: filling in the QR code. Carefully.
I wonder how many immature people did this:

Conquer your Fear of Public Speaking Like a Boss! (or Steve Jobs)
Studies show the the #1 fear of most people (over dying) is Public Speaking.
I spend a lot my professional time presenting either in person or on the phone to clients/propects, & most of what do is either selling a service, or just selling an idea. Lately I’ve taken upon myself to become a better speaker & learn how to lead a conversation, rather than give a presentation.
My personal journey to get better began by watching The Pitch on AMC & reading the book “The Art of the Pitch: Persuasion & Presentation Skills that Win Business” by Peter Coughter – I’ll save my book report for another post, but it inspired me to take it to the next level.
I took a Speech class in college that scorned me more that it helped me. I only recall not trying to upset my professor & lose a letter grade for every “um” or glance of the note cards; It’s difficult to present things you are not passionate about.
My current goal would be to not only win new business, not sweat when I address a room, or communicate better with my clients & internal teams, but more-so to command the room & own the presentation… err… conversation.
I’m sharing a SlideShare from HubSpot, then your next move should be to search for epic presentations from the best in the game. Once I do more homework on YouTube, I’m going to enroll in a local Toastmasters to practice my newly learned techniques. I’d rather bomb in front of strangers than on a big pitch.
