Intro to Entrepreneurship
L&S 5 (UGBA 96)
Monday September 23, 2013
Apply the science of decision making to improve the effectiveness of your communications. This is helpful for web sites, brochures, political campaigns, and all forms of advertising and communication. Get a competitive advantage in your communications.
This module will let individuals see the importance of branding your company, the challenges you will face in relation to growth, the expenses that you will be out that you may have perhaps not thought of and how to resolve problems relating to cost based pricing.
When you want to get started building a super sales team, what are things you want to tell them. Sales is not about just numbers or just saying Yes/No and Next. Sales is about building relationships, It is about creating that trust in the minds of your prospects. That can happen only when you listen.. actively. And then get into their shoes and provide them a solution. Your product or service may or may not be a 100% fit. But if you are sure that you are true to your customers, you will be a great sales guy!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.

2) The Sales Funnel
3) Knowledge
4) Commitment – Full Time is a Frame of Mind
5) Style
6) Respect
7) Listen
Keys to Success
3. • This phrase is incredibly prophetic
– In fact many people succeed that you would not expect.
– When a process is replicated – anyone can do it
– As Kenny Lloyd our CMO says
• You do not have to be pretty or smart
• you simply have to have a system and follow it
Innvia has that system
The more you know
the less you need to say.
- Jim Rohn
It is simple to succeed -but not necessarily easy
4. • Babe Ruth was the Home Run King
– Most people do not realize he was also the strike out
king
• The sales funnel is the amount of business or
prospects you have to identify to meet your
objectives
The Sales Funnel
5. Companies determine a closing ratio based on a set of
criteria to manage their sales process to assure success
– A sales person has to identify who they are going to sell, how
much and what time frame
– They also have to answer a predetermine set of questions
about the account to determine the probability (%) to close
– These questions could include: have you scheduled an
appointment (10%), do they have funds (40%), has
management met them (50%), is the purchasing department
involved (80%), is the purchase order being processed (90%)
The Sales Funnel
6. The moral is – if you want 12 people in your front line
it may require 20-100 people in your funnel depending
on how well you pick, qualify and work them.
The process of qualifying not only gives you a higher
probability success but more importantly sets
milestones to achievement
The Sales Funnel
7. Product knowledge is key to success
– The majority of people are trying to figure out the
“Affordable Care Act” and how they will be
impacted.
– If you are knowledgeable on the subject and point
people to information and affordable
insurance – you will be successful.
Knowledge
8. While Innvia and the “Diamond Wealth Team” have the
platform and systems to make building a team and
business simple – you have to invest time learning the
product, company and market.
– This is so you can answer questions and be knowledgeable and
confident
– The key to success is to minimize how much you say
• you initially just want to create interest
• then get them to the site or on a 3-way call
Knowledge
9. The Innvia opportunity is structured as a referral system
You do not need to sell
The product and opportunity speak for themselves
Your job is simply to get people to
look at the site.
An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.
- Benjamin Franklin
Knowledge
10. Full time is more a frame of
mind - than a number of
hours
– Have a tablet with you all the
time
– Write down all your ideas
– A professor once said “No
thought is as clear as the first
time you experience it.”
Commitment
11. If every conversation you have you bring up insurance and
simply listen – then briefly share
If you set daily goals and review them daily
If you smile at everyone and give them an earnest
compliment
If everyday you look at your life – compare it to the rest of
the world and find something to be thankful
If everyday you do a random act of kindness
Then you will be successful
Commitment
12. It was character that got us out of bed,
commitment that moved us into action, and
discipline that enabled us to follow through.
- Zig Ziglar
Commitment
13. Two of the most successful people in Technology
Industry I knew
– The 1st – if you started talking technology to them they would
simply walk away. They made a fortune by simply going to
executives and asking them what problem they were trying to
solve (LISTEN). Then they would martial whatever resources it
took to solve the problem.
– The 2nd – never worked more than 35 hours a week.
However, they set high goals, worked smart, had a plan and
worked a system
Style
14. – I learned from these two people to listen and work smart.
– I also learned from the saying of “sell yourself
first, company second and product third”.
• This is critical to success because at the end of the day whatever
you are selling there are probably two other products that will do
the job.
• The key is what do you personally and your company bring to the
table. Knowledge, support, predictability and dependability are
the most coveted.
Style
15. The Moral is – Learn to listen, work smart and
bring something(knowledge) to the table.
Every one is talking about and impacted
today by health insurance.
It is almost as simply as saying the word
“insurance” and possibly “mandate and
you have an instant conversation
Just sit back and let them talk
Then share your opportunity
Style
16. Respect is critical to success.
– My Vietnam Company Commander Michael McFadden
• “a true hero”
• Lives by the motto “Mutual Respect”.
Respect
17. Respect is critical to success.
– Respect is
• Being timely – When you are late for an appointment you are
disrespecting the person’s time no matter what the excuse or
reason
• Being prepared – Shows people that you respect their time and
attention
• Being Responsive – Shows people you are dependable
• Following up – Keeps people engaged
Respect
18. – Being successful is maximizing every
interaction you have
If you have some respect for people as they
are, you can be more effective in helping them
to become better than they are.
- John W. Gardner
Respect
19. One of the most important things in selling is to be a good
listener
– Initiate a conversation with a thought provoking comment.
– The exciting part about Innvia is everyone is - already talking
and concerned about health care and the mandate.
– If you let someone talk first - you will understand what is
important to them.
– The biggest mistake sales people make is - selling before
listening.
Listen
20. “Listening to people keeps them entertained.”
Mason Cooley
“Every person in this life has something to teach me--and as soon as I accept
that, I open myself to truly listening.”
Catherine Doucette
“I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most
people never listen.”
Ernest Hemingway
Listen
21. “Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your
temper or your self-confidence.”
Robert Frost
“The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.
Just listen.
Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention...
A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect
than the
most well-intentioned words.”
Rachel Naomi Remen
