Check the video link new assist commissioner and m/e ward assist engineer Mr. A. A Khan and mcgm portal complaint closed without solving the issue in ground level. Doing favour to private builder who has damaged the hill without prior permission and demolish 20-25huts without collector survey. Even Maharashtra lokayukta order not implement by suburban collector for that mcgm has not issued MRTP ACT. Even mumbai police has not filed FIR as per SRA letter issued letter to me in 2016. With ₹power builder and corrupt officer are playing with me since 2018. As a Christian and salvation Army tamil church member I had revert them if they will pay in future also they will get. Builder staffs are thinking that with the help of few local people they will hire all the place. In fact I want to say I. E. bring २(two) bricks of masjid in which my finger will point and they can take my both house. Its my challenge to them other Along with authority Corrupt staffs I. E. SRA, SUBURBAN COLLECTOR, MCGM, MUMBAI POLICE, MMRDA, & Political leaders who has supported to builders by giving letter to govt authority. If any one wants to spoil their service by doing malpractice and Interfair in my matter or my family I will revert them at that time builder and their higher authority will not help to those staff as I had done to adani staff. Time is a biggest justice. Even session court judge has supported to malpractice I. E. FIR registered by govandi police station against me at 12pm and adani vigilance raid my house at 12.45pm I don't know how clock is route and like so many proof is available with me. And in another case builder lady staff put fake complaint against me and my trustee member in 2018 in fact since on that day builders work stop even I had a proof and evidence that I will furnish when trails will start in court my next date is on Aug 2021 I had given letter to kurla court no 52 judge even he has not accept my letter he told me without lawyer I can't argument with out lawyer as per our Indian constitutional rights I can fight my case by my self. As per my view every where it's business without ₹power poor people will not get proper justice for that only I will bring $power for getting justice. My case will fight by those lawyer who follows the 7lamps of ADVOCACY as per our Dr. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR Constitutional rights.
Even Wadhwa group has mail me mentioning that they had hand over the project to radius group and radius builder LLP Partner Deserve builder and his uneducated staffs are playing with me. They had brought me in temple I. E. Court and now I am feeding them a prasad.
I am not against the development I know that principal builder Mr. Sanjay C Director of M/s. radius builder BKC ONE owner is putting money and earning money, as it's business rules.
Suburban collector is unanswerable even not given feedback to bombay high court letter, now it's mcgm turn issued property card / tax account to builder by paying 5lacs and outstanding amount of ₹42cr is pending to pay. Mcgm commissioner will be answerable to court and will mcgm will provide same facility to another poor builders of mumbai????
Even Ex- DMC Mr. Maratha visited to same case check the link https://youtu.be/-aiPkpyvOYM
On my NGO letter head Ex- commissioner Mr. Shitaram kunth has given stop work notice to builder towards Hill mining at #BARC and Heritage of mumbai I. E. Near MMRDA TUNNEL Mumbai first tunnel. For details pls check link. https://youtu.be/QT_0SZYLFV0
Even my Twitter video is blocked I. E. Illegal survey carried out by dy. Collector chembur.
With the help of corrupt rcf police staff and builders staff they tried to put PR BOND against me, for the same I had put complaint against them in HUMAN RIGHT MAHARASHTRA against corrupt ACP I will display his name. With one fake case register against me police officer issued PR bond to me. I had asked what is PR bond and I am not a criminal. I had given written application to Mr. Sayyed chairman of human right with so many point. My first point was how many cases has to be need for PR bond. As a founder of NGO and no cases registered against me at the age of 38 my first case was registered in 2018 and for responsible person was Mr. Raju kedhare chief promoter, deserve builder manager Mr. Mahesh sawant now they are under ground unable to face the people and more than 3000 people are not getting their rents from builder and builder is also paid 50+cr loan penalty to yes bank.
Time is a biggest justice

acceptable ways to address Scotty
Mister Scott/Miss Scott
‘Mister’ is, in fact, acceptable for female officers both in canon and in the navy in real life, however ‘Miss’ can be used based on preference. presumably if you don’t know the gender of the person you’re speaking to, use mister over any alternative. Scotty isn’t especially fond of miss as it comes off almost diminutive, but may or may not correct it.
Sir/Ma’am
again, pretty straightforward. ‘Sir’ is acceptable for women, both in ST canon and the real life navy. ma’am is more specific. again, presumably ‘sir’ is the one that should be defaulted to if gender is unknown or has no term. Scotty has a very strong preference for ‘sir’ in this regard and generally corrects it.
Lieutenant Commander/Lieutenant Commander Scott
this is pretty obviously okay. I should note, though, that insisting on calling someone by the full Lieutenant Commander can be offensive, though it is not automatically so, by way of emphasizing that they aren’t a ‘real’ Commander. It can be used derogatorily especially if the Ltcdr in question is in a position (the XO or similar) usually held by someone of Commander or higher, and someone is trying to say that the Ltcdr is not qualified without outright saying so or being overtly disrespectful. it’s like refering to an lt jg as lt jg instead of just lt. you’re deliberately drawing attention to the fact that they aren’t a ‘full’ lt. in casual conversations that do not require full rank you can also use--
Commander/Commander Scott
this is the acceptable way to shorten the rank ‘Lieutenant Commander’ in an on-duty situation/while speaking about them, etc. the line between ltcdr and cdr is not so wide that the difference is important. lieutenant commander is a bit of a mouthful when just trying to talk and is can be very unwieldy if you’re trying to quickly relay info, hence, commander is an easy stand-in. one cannot use ‘lieutenant’ as referring to someone by a lesser rank is incredibly offensive. don’t do it.
Engineer/Engineer Scott
this is typically for superior officers only, if at all. kirk has canonically done so but I haven’t been able to figure out if it’s the same thing as calling bones ‘Dr. Mccoy’ instead of his rank or if it could be dismissive when used. Certainly for lt and ensign ranks ‘engineer lastname’ is acceptable, so, presumably it works for her as well. Scotty doesn’t really mind this, as being an engineer is, truthfully, all she wants.
other notes:
don’t use her first name at all ever while on duty. or any officer’s. the moments where crew use jim’s name are meant to be surprising and are also almost never in front of other crew members.
even if you have a personal relationship with scotty, platonic or otherwise, you don’t get to start refusing orders or addressing her in a personal manner while on duty. don’t fucking do it.
I’ll admit that gets fuzzy with characters such as bones who really doesn’t give a shit when it comes to formality versus letting you know you need to get your life together, but remember that mccoy gets a lot of leeway for being CMO and on top of that he can literally overrule the captain if it comes to it. he’s earned his leeway. a random ensign has not. that’s the distinction i’m going for, here.
remember that ‘Scotty’ is actually a nickname and is, thus, informal and lower ranking officers generally SHOULD NOT use informalities on duty, though Scotty’s liberal with her tolerance of it (eg. have half an ounce of respect in your tone and she doesn’t care if you call her scotty instead of sir/her rank.)
using ‘Scotty’ is perfectly acceptable off duty for pretty much everyone
‘boss’ is considered an acceptable and respectful way to address a superior, especially when revealing chain of command isn’t a good idea.
‘Captain’ is a position as well as a rank so anyone in that position is due that title, regardless of rank. If Spock, Scotty, Sulu, Uhura, or Ensign Joe Blow have the conn and are in charge, they can be addressed as ‘Acting Captain’ or just ‘Captain’, regardless. The exception to this might be admirals/commodores/etc. When in doubt, use the higher rank of address.
other positions/billets factor into who is in charge of who on board. scotty automatically outranks anyone else on board the enterprise short of kirk and spock because of her position as second officer! period! the duties of a second officer are separate from the other duties she performs! the only exception to the rank rule would be the chief medical officer acting in a medical capacity, as usual.
department heads also outrank those in their department; even if scotty were an ensign and not lt cmdr or second officer, she would outrank everyone in the engineering department by her status as chief engineering officer; this is why someone with a department head status is typically lt cdr or above, to avoid rank/rate/billet/position issues.
senior staff, at least on star trek/on the enterprise herself, seem to treat each other as relative equals without regards to rank. it should not be assumed this will hold true for every other crew member and certainly not for those that are not stationed on the enterprise. the main crew all know each other and where they stand in relation to each other, they don’t need to establish positions and boundaries with each other, they’ve already got them.

Bangkok to Host Second Asia Destination Film Forum on 30 January 2020
Tumblr media
Bangkok will host the second Asia Destination Film Forum on 30 January 2020. The event, co-chaired by H.E. Mr. Itthipol Khunpluem, Thailand’s Minister of Culture, and Dr. Sorajak Kasemsuwan, Secretary General of the National Federation of Motion Pictures and Contents Association, will take place at Quaint Bangkok. First launched at the 2018 Mekong Tourism Forum in Nakhon Phanom, Thailand, by the Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office (MTCO), the forum is designed to showcase and recognize films that promote destinations and sustainability, through the power of visual storytelling. The forum will consist of sessions held by Nick Ray from Hanuman Films, Joe Cummings, editor at large of Bangkok 101, Fah Daengdej, Host of The Passion on Nation TV 22, and others, exploring how consumers are inspired to visit destinations by visual storytelling from movies to user-generated videos, how tourism boards can leverage films, how businesses can benefit from visual storytelling, and how it can drive sustainability.
Tumblr media
In addition to sessions and case studies by Tom Waller, producer of “The Cave” (Thailand), and by Ekachai Uekrongtham, executive producer of the Netflix series “The Stranded” (Thailand), there will be case studies by the Singapore Tourism Board, Busan City Tourism Organization, as well as the Tourism Authority of Thailand. Winner of Best Feature Film at the 2019 San Diego International Film Festival “The Steed” (Mongolia), as well as Hanuman Films’ award-winning “The Last Reel” (Cambodia) will screen during the event. In addition, films submitted to the Thailand Film Festival, in collaboration with the Thailand Film Office of the Department of Tourism, and the Mekong Mini Movie Festival, in partnership with MTCO, will be shown during the forum. In the evening, the 2020 Asia Destination Film Awards, as well as the Mekong Mini Movie Festival Awards, will be presented, followed by a Mongolia BBQ Film Festival night with a Mongolian celebrity BBQ chef and traditional cultural performances hosted by the Ministry of Environment and Tourism Mongolia. Jens Thraenhart, Executive Director of MTCO and founder of the Destination Film Forum and Awards, said, “Today, video is one of the most powerful mediums when promoting a destination. It has the chance to awaken the wanderlust in the viewer by showing the essence and uniqueness of a place in just a few short moments. However, the power of inspiring people via film goes beyond promoting destinations; it can also drive change and responsible travel behavior, striving to emphasize tourism that is sustainable, responsible, environmentally conscious, and bringing benefits to local communities. In partnership with WWF and Khiri Travel, the Mekong Mini Movie Festival is creating awareness of sustainable tourism and conservation, focusing on the festival’s mascot, the endangered Mekong Dolphin.” A Destination Film Forum networking happy hour with film previews will take place at the popular Spectrum Lounge & Bar at the Hyatt Regency Bangkok Sukhumvit at 17:30 on 29 January.

Brandspeak: Does Emotion Play a Role in B2B Branding?
  The following guest post is by SAP senior director Joe Pantigoso.
Recently, as I was going through a brand inventory framework to help a group of startups identify opportunities to better define their brands, one startup leader commented, “I don’t need to think about emotional benefits. I’m a B2B brand.”
Many in large as well as small companies believe that emotional benefits are only for B2C brands. They think that B2B brands should focus solely on functional benefits given the often high cost of B2B purchases, the complex procurement process and the potential business impact if the purchase fails to meet expectations.
However, some Bain and Company consultants in a recent Harvard Business Review article argue that it’s critical to consider “the full range of both rational and emotional factors behind business purchases.”
They cite emotional benefits like whether a brand can “reduce anxiety” or “enhance the buyer’s reputation” as impacting the B2B purchase, too. Reliability, trust, credibility, partnership, confidence—all emotional benefits—can sway a B2B decision.
A “Think with Google” piece brought this to life: “When a personal consumer makes a bad purchase, the stakes are relatively low. Best case, it’s returnable. If not, it might require an explanation to a spouse. Business purchases, on the other hand, can involve huge amounts of risk: Responsibility for a multi-million dollar software acquisition that goes bad can lead to poor business performance and even loss of a job.”
Market researcher Forrester linked these emotional benefits to an opportunity, describing brands as “a proxy to allay the fear of buyers.” I also appreciated how the Forrester analyst emphatically commented: “If you thought B2B was all about features and functionality, think again. The human brain abhors complexity, and… influencers and decision makers in B2B are desperately seeking the right signal to simplify decision-making. That signal is brand!”
To see how some B2B brands are using emotional benefits to engage their audiences, just take a look at their YouTube videos and survey the themes:
• Boeing – reliability
youtube
• EY – purpose and legacy
youtube
• Goldman Sachs – leadership
youtube
• McKinsey – reinvention
youtube
• 3M – improving people’s lives
youtube
A former CMO of mine used to explain B2B marketing not as “business to business” but as “people to people.” People comprise organizations that make business decisions for B2C as well as for B2B brands. And people are human and full of emotion. I particularly like Dr. Jill Bolten Taylor’s TED Talk in which she described humans not as “thinking creatures that feel” but as “feeling creatures that think.” When you look at it that way, it becomes clear why B2B marketers need to consider emotional benefits for B2B brands.

3 Life and Marketing Success Resolutions for 2019

This text and the accompanying 30-minute video comes from my Content Marketing World 2018 keynote presentation. On Dec. 31, 2017, I “retired” from marketing and took a sabbatical for 2018 (which, as of this publishing, I’m still happily on).
I’ve given over 400 keynote speeches in 18 countries, but this one was the most personal. The team at CMI is nice enough to publish this so the entire CMI audience can watch and read it. I hope there is something here that will help you in your life or your marketing (hopefully both).
Yours in Content,  
Joe

Hello Cleveland. It’s fantastic to be back here at Content Marketing World. Some of you may not know this, but I’ve been on a sabbatical for the last nine glorious months since leaving CMI.
In January, I spent 30 days electronics free. In February, I took my father to Sicily to see 60 cousins we’ve never met before, and the last six months, I’ve literally spent more time with my two boys than in the previous six years.
Disclaimer
The Pulizzi family is notorious for using disclaimers. So for this speech, here’s my disclaimer. I’ll cover some marketing, but this is much more about you and your success. I care about each of you way too much to just give you marketing advice … I want to give you more. That said, you may not like it. I’m willing to live with that. So here goes.
Tabula rasa
I first came across the term “tabula rasa” in 1995 while studying rhetoric at Penn State University. Tabula rasa or “clean slate” is found in the writings of Aristotle, and is the belief that we are each born with a blank slate and everything we learn … our habits … our behaviors … comes from our experiences.
What if, right here and now, you had a clean slate? You could do or be anything you wanted. Nothing in this world could hold you back from your accomplishments.
Now I want you to fast forward exactly one year to this time in 2019. What’s different? What did you accomplish in the last 365 days?
What about five years from now?
Are you rich? Did you get the guy or the girl you wanted? Did you have another child? Did you travel the world? Did you prevent your kids from growing up to be idiots?
Would you consider yourself a success? Have you made a positive impact on the world?
I’ve been studying success and successful people as long as I can remember … easily 30 years. As a young adult I kept a journal with me of all the things I wanted to do and accomplish, and listened to success audio tapes from Brian Tracy and Zig Zigler.
Even as I’ve been on this year-long sabbatical, I’ve kept this obsession about success.
Here’s the question: Why are some people successful and others are not? Is there a formula for success that put the odds in your favor?
What I’ve found is that most of us have conditioned our brains and have formed habits that preclude us from success. That means if we don’t change what we are doing, right now, the things you want to accomplish in 2019 or 2023 and beyond, both marketing and personal goals, will never happen.
Most of us have conditioned our brains & formed habits that preclude us from success, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet Three Re’s
Record Repeat Remove
Not just me, but the most successful people in the world use this formula as well … which is, sadly, a very small percentage of people.
Record. Repeat. Remove. That’s the success formula for personal & professional success, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
And here’s the bonus … the same actions and behaviors that will make your personal dreams come true, will also define your success in marketing.
Record
What does record mean? This means you document your desire. Depending on what research study you look at, less than 10% of all people write down and record their goals. And, those that do, accomplish more in their lives than the other 90% combined.
Let’s say you were going to build a house. If we treated building this house like we do building our lives, we would just call the contractors, the electrician, the plumber, the concrete guy, the drywall team, the roofers … have them get in a huddle and figure it out.
Can you imagine the chaos to building a house without a plan? But that’s what we do. We don’t plan for our desires to come true.
Our mental houses are falling down. Over the past 20 years I’ve asked hundreds of people what their success plan is. How they are going to get what they want out of life? Most people do not have any idea what they really want. And if they do, they certainly don’t write it down or believe they can achieve it.
Bruce Lee case study
In January of 1969, very few people ever heard of a man named Bruce Lee. Today, Bruce Lee is probably the most famous martial arts movie star who ever existed. Bruce had some major ambitions … and he penned this letter to himself:
My Definite Chief Aim
I, Bruce Lee, will be the first highest paid Oriental super star in the United States. In return I will give the most exciting performances and render the best of quality in the capacity of an actor. Starting 1970 I will achieve world fame and from then onward till the end of 1980 I will have in my possession $10,000,000. I will live the way I please and achieve inner harmony and happiness.
Bruce Lee – Jan. 1969
Unfortunately, Bruce passed away just four years later, but not before accomplishing everything and more from this letter. Every day Bruce got out of his bed and had a crystal image of what success was to him, and what he needed to do that day to move the needle forward.
Think and Grow Rich case study
When I was in college, I read Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. In the 1930s, Mr. Hill interviewed 500 high achievers like Ford, Roosevelt, and Carnegie to find out why they were so successful. He found, actually, that the key similarity for these high achievers was incredibly simple. They wrote down their desires.
The common thread among high achievers? They write down their desires, says Napoleon Hill & @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
But what kind of goals and desires?
Billionaire investor Warren Buffett says, “If you are going to try to bat 1,000%, you won’t accomplish many things of importance. If you’re willing to strike out a few times, you can change the world.”
So I’m not talking about small goals here … we are talking about I’m Gonna Change the World goals.
We do this remembering three components. Let’s look at Bruce Lee’s desire. First, it’s totally unreasonable. This is a Big Big Goal. No person had ever brought martial arts to the mainstream.
Second, we need specifics. He wants to make $10 million by 1980. He had a specific amount and a specific year.
And the best goals ALSO serve others. He wanted to thrill audiences with his performances. And in exchange for delivering this value, he became a superstar.
Well, would you know that the exact same things hold true for your content marketing plan?
Big – If you take your content marketing plan into your CMO and they approve it the first time around … guest what? It’s not big enough. You need to go in there and make their heads spin. It needs to be big! Unreasonable – No other company should have this goal. This is what I call your content tilt or differentiation point. Are you building something for your audience that has never been done like this before? Other-serving – What’s in it for the audience? Are you first and foremost helping them get better jobs and live better lives or is your goal about you getting more leads or money?
If your CMO approves your #contentmarketing plan the first time, it’s not big enough, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
HANDPICKED RELATED CONTENT: This Goal-Setting Activity That Made All the Difference Repeat
What do we mean by repeat?
Every day in the morning, and every night in the evening, we are going to review this goal. We are going to take about 1% of our day – less than 15 minutes a day – to review our desires. The plan for our mental house.
In a 2009 study published by Dr. Phillipa Lally in the European Journal of Psychology, 96 people over a 12-week period were analyzed about changing behavior and habits. Each chose one new habit and reported each day on whether or not they did the behavior … and … when the behavior became automatic.
Some people chose simple habits like “drinking three bottles of water a day” or “no desserts.” Others chose more difficult tasks like “exercising for 15 minutes before dinner.” At the end of the 12 weeks, the researchers analyzed the data to determine how long it took each person to go from starting a new behavior to automatically doing it.
On average, it took 66 days before a new behavior became automatic. The range was 18 to 254 days.
This is exactly why you have to review your success goal every day over a long period of time. You have to condition your mind to believe that the goal is attainable. Remember … tabula rasa, clean slate … we have to reprogram our mind to accept that our goal is possible.
And here’s the big idea most people just don’t get: The MOST important thing to accomplishing your goal is to BELIEVE that it is possible. You don’t need more money, or skills, or abilities, or a better job or Robert Rose. The most important thing – as George Michael knew so well – is having faith.
The MOST important thing to accomplishing your goal is to BELIEVE that it is possible, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
Once you can condition the mind to your goal, your day starts to shape itself.
Let me give you an example … email. How many people checked email this morning? Most people do. But if you had a totally unreasonable success goal that you reviewed this morning, the same goal you reviewed the night before, you might start to believe that digging into email first thing in the morning won’t at all help you accomplish your goal.
Now let’s go back to our marketing fundamentals again.
There are two main reasons why content marketing programs fail. The first, is that the goal isn’t truly big enough … it doesn’t really affect the lives of the audience in a unique way.
The second comes down to this idea of repetition. If it takes 66 days to change a personal behavior, how many times are you going to need to consistently deliver your content to your audience to change their behavior?
In researching for my book Content Inc., we found that minimum time from start to driving revenue for content marketing was nine months. The average was 18 months of consistent delivery. Why? Because it takes time to build an audience.
If you aren’t delivering consistently to your audience, you are not content marketing.
If you aren’t delivering consistently to your audience, you are not #contentmarketing, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet Remove
In high school I read the book Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein, which still to this day is my favorite book. Toward the beginning of the book Valentine Michael Smith, who was born on Mars, is learning to understand humans. Three of his caretakers were women, and each was practicing kissing Mike. Every time any of them kissed Mike, they fainted, out cold.
Jubal Harshaw, Mike’s main caretaker, asked one of the women why she fainted. She said this to Jubal:
Mike gives a kiss his total attention. I’ve been kissed by men who did a very good job. But they can’t give kissing their whole attention. No matter how hard they try parts of their minds are on something else. Missing the last bus – or their chances of making the gal … maybe worry about a job, or money … but when Mike kisses you he isn’t doing anything else. You’re his whole universe … just kissing you. It’s overwhelming.
I must confess that as a young man in high school I tried this technique, but the results were inconclusive.
This is all about focus. Clearing away all the clutter and just being focused on accomplishing something.
In order for record and repeat to work, we have to clear away all the garbage that is stopping us from accomplishing our desires.
Clear away all the garbage that stops you from accomplishing your desires, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
Bill Gates and Warren Buffett
Microsoft founder Bill Gates didn’t really want to meet Warren Buffett. He didn’t think they’d have anything in common. But at the urging of Meg Greenfield, Washington Post editor, they met on July 5, 1991. Gates was nervous and he was dreading the meeting.
Greenfield gave both men a sheet of paper and asked each to write down the one word that is their key to success. Both, as it happened, wrote down the same word: Focus.
From that day, the two became best friends.
To be successful … we need focus, we need discipline … and we need to remove the distractions around us.
Put away your phone
A few months ago, someone asked me to take a coffee meeting with them. He said he had some very important business model questions for me and thought I could help. We met at Panera Bread on the west side of Cleveland.
I sat down, put my coffee on the table. He sat down, put his coffee on the table, and his phone just on his left side face up. Throughout our chat, he kept looking at his phone. Instagram, Twitter, Messenger … all kinds of notifications. Clearly, he was not paying attention to me.
Obviously, what I was saying wasn’t very important to this person. Whenever I see someone with a phone face up or face down next to them during a meeting, I already know they have a focus problem.
After a bit of back and forth he asked me “What’s the first thing I should do?” I told him to take his smartphone and throw it in the garbage.
Lack of time?
“I don’t have time to accomplish my goals.” I hear this all the time.
Did you know that, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average American still watches three hours of television per day?
That’s 1,100 hours watching TV per year. Let’s say you’re blessed enough to reach 80 years old and that was you. That means almost 10 years..

What if, right here and now, you had a clean slate? You could do or be anything you wanted. Nothing in this world could hold you back from your accomplishments.
Now I want you to fast forward exactly one year to this time in 2019. What’s different? What did you accomplish in the last 365 days?
What about five years from now?
Are you rich?
Did you get the guy or the girl you wanted?
Did you have another child?
Did you travel the world?
Did you prevent your kids from growing up to be idiots?
Would you consider yourself a success? Have you made a positive impact on the world?
I’ve been studying success and successful people as long as I can remember … easily 30 years. As a young adult I kept a journal with me of all the things I wanted to do and accomplish, and listened to success audio tapes from Brian Tracy and Zig Zigler.
Even as I’ve been on this year-long sabbatical, I’ve kept this obsession about success.
Here’s the question: Why are some people successful and others are not? Is there a formula for success that put the odds in your favor?
What I’ve found is that most of us have conditioned our brains and have formed habits that preclude us from success. That means if we don’t change what we are doing, right now, the things you want to accomplish in 2019 or 2023 and beyond, both marketing and personal goals, will never happen.

Three Re’s
Record
Repeat
Remove
Not just me, but the most successful people in the world use this formula as well … which is, sadly, a very small percentage of people.
Record. Repeat. Remove. That’s the success formula for personal & professional success, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
And here’s the bonus … the same actions and behaviors that will make your personal dreams come true, will also define your success in marketing.
Record
What does record mean? This means you document your desire. Depending on what research study you look at, less than 10% of all people write down and record their goals. And, those that do, accomplish more in their lives than the other 90% combined.
Let’s say you were going to build a house. If we treated building this house like we do building our lives, we would just call the contractors, the electrician, the plumber, the concrete guy, the drywall team, the roofers … have them get in a huddle and figure it out.
Can you imagine the chaos to building a house without a plan? But that’s what we do. We don’t plan for our desires to come true.
Our mental houses are falling down. Over the past 20 years I’ve asked hundreds of people what their success plan is. How they are going to get what they want out of life? Most people do not have any idea what they really want. And if they do, they certainly don’t write it down or believe they can achieve it.
Bruce Lee case study
In January of 1969, very few people ever heard of a man named Bruce Lee. Today, Bruce Lee is probably the most famous martial arts movie star who ever existed. Bruce had some major ambitions … and he penned this letter to himself:
My Definite Chief Aim
I, Bruce Lee, will be the first highest paid Oriental super star in the United States. In return I will give the most exciting performances and render the best of quality in the capacity of an actor. Starting 1970 I will achieve world fame and from then onward till the end of 1980 I will have in my possession $10,000,000. I will live the way I please and achieve inner harmony and happiness.
Bruce Lee – Jan. 1969
Unfortunately, Bruce passed away just four years later, but not before accomplishing everything and more from this letter. Every day Bruce got out of his bed and had a crystal image of what success was to him, and what he needed to do that day to move the needle forward.
Think and Grow Rich case study
When I was in college, I read Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. In the 1930s, Mr. Hill interviewed 500 high achievers like Ford, Roosevelt, and Carnegie to find out why they were so successful. He found, actually, that the key similarity for these high achievers was incredibly simple. They wrote down their desires.
The common thread among high achievers? They write down their desires, says Napoleon Hill & @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
But what kind of goals and desires?
Billionaire investor Warren Buffett says, “If you are going to try to bat 1,000%, you won’t accomplish many things of importance. If you’re willing to strike out a few times, you can change the world.”
So I’m not talking about small goals here … we are talking about I’m Gonna Change the World goals.
We do this remembering three components. Let’s look at Bruce Lee’s desire. First, it’s totally unreasonable. This is a Big Big Goal. No person had ever brought martial arts to the mainstream.
Second, we need specifics. He wants to make $10 million by 1980. He had a specific amount and a specific year.
And the best goals ALSO serve others. He wanted to thrill audiences with his performances. And in exchange for delivering this value, he became a superstar.
Well, would you know that the exact same things hold true for your content marketing plan?
Big – If you take your content marketing plan into your CMO and they approve it the first time around … guest what? It’s not big enough. You need to go in there and make their heads spin. It needs to be big!
Unreasonable – No other company should have this goal. This is what I call your content tilt or differentiation point. Are you building something for your audience that has never been done like this before?
Other-serving – What’s in it for the audience? Are you first and foremost helping them get better jobs and live better lives or is your goal about you getting more leads or money?
If your CMO approves your #contentmarketing plan the first time, it’s not big enough, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
HANDPICKED RELATED CONTENT: This Goal-Setting Activity That Made All the Difference
Repeat
What do we mean by repeat?
Every day in the morning, and every night in the evening, we are going to review this goal. We are going to take about 1% of our day – less than 15 minutes a day – to review our desires. The plan for our mental house.
In a 2009 study published by Dr. Phillipa Lally in the European Journal of Psychology, 96 people over a 12-week period were analyzed about changing behavior and habits. Each chose one new habit and reported each day on whether or not they did the behavior … and … when the behavior became automatic.
Some people chose simple habits like “drinking three bottles of water a day” or “no desserts.” Others chose more difficult tasks like “exercising for 15 minutes before dinner.” At the end of the 12 weeks, the researchers analyzed the data to determine how long it took each person to go from starting a new behavior to automatically doing it.
On average, it took 66 days before a new behavior became automatic. The range was 18 to 254 days.
This is exactly why you have to review your success goal every day over a long period of time. You have to condition your mind to believe that the goal is attainable. Remember … tabula rasa, clean slate … we have to reprogram our mind to accept that our goal is possible.
And here’s the big idea most people just don’t get: The MOST important thing to accomplishing your goal is to BELIEVE that it is possible. You don’t need more money, or skills, or abilities, or a better job or Robert Rose. The most important thing – as George Michael knew so well – is having faith.
The MOST important thing to accomplishing your goal is to BELIEVE that it is possible, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
Once you can condition the mind to your goal, your day starts to shape itself.
Let me give you an example … email. How many people checked email this morning? Most people do. But if you had a totally unreasonable success goal that you reviewed this morning, the same goal you reviewed the night before, you might start to believe that digging into email first thing in the morning won’t at all help you accomplish your goal.
Now let’s go back to our marketing fundamentals again.
There are two main reasons why content marketing programs fail. The first, is that the goal isn’t truly big enough … it doesn’t really affect the lives of the audience in a unique way.
The second comes down to this idea of repetition. If it takes 66 days to change a personal behavior, how many times are you going to need to consistently deliver your content to your audience to change their behavior?
In researching for my book Content Inc., we found that minimum time from start to driving revenue for content marketing was nine months. The average was 18 months of consistent delivery. Why? Because it takes time to build an audience.
If you aren’t delivering consistently to your audience, you are not content marketing.
If you aren’t delivering consistently to your audience, you are not #contentmarketing, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet

In high school I read the book Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein, which still to this day is my favorite book. Toward the beginning of the book Valentine Michael Smith, who was born on Mars, is learning to understand humans. Three of his caretakers were women, and each was practicing kissing Mike. Every time any of them kissed Mike, they fainted, out cold.
Jubal Harshaw, Mike’s main caretaker, asked one of the women why she fainted. She said this to Jubal:
Mike gives a kiss his total attention. I’ve been kissed by men who did a very good job. But they can’t give kissing their whole attention. No matter how hard they try parts of their minds are on something else. Missing the last bus – or their chances of making the gal … maybe worry about a job, or money … but when Mike kisses you he isn’t doing anything else. You’re his whole universe … just kissing you. It’s overwhelming.
I must confess that as a young man in high school I tried this technique, but the results were inconclusive.
This is all about focus. Clearing away all the clutter and just being focused on accomplishing something.
In order for record and repeat to work, we have to clear away all the garbage that is stopping us from accomplishing our desires.
Clear away all the garbage that stops you from accomplishing your desires, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
Bill Gates and Warren Buffett
Microsoft founder Bill Gates didn’t really want to meet Warren Buffett. He didn’t think they’d have anything in common. But at the urging of Meg Greenfield, Washington Post editor, they met on July 5, 1991. Gates was nervous and he was dreading the meeting.
Greenfield gave both men a sheet of paper and asked each to write down the one word that is their key to success. Both, as it happened, wrote down the same word: Focus.
From that day, the two became best friends.
To be successful … we need focus, we need discipline … and we need to remove the distractions around us.
Put away your phone
A few months ago, someone asked me to take a coffee meeting with them. He said he had some very important business model questions for me and thought I could help. We met at Panera Bread on the west side of Cleveland.
I sat down, put my coffee on the table. He sat down, put his coffee on the table, and his phone just on his left side face up. Throughout our chat, he kept looking at his phone. Instagram, Twitter, Messenger … all kinds of notifications. Clearly, he was not paying attention to me.
Obviously, what I was saying wasn’t very important to this person. Whenever I see someone with a phone face up or face down next to them during a meeting, I already know they have a focus problem.
After a bit of back and forth he asked me “What’s the first thing I should do?” I told him to take his smartphone and throw it in the garbage.
Lack of time?
“I don’t have time to accomplish my goals.” I hear this all the time.
Did you know that, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average American still watches three hours of television per day?
That’s 1,100 hours watching TV per year. Let’s say you’re blessed enough to reach 80 years old and that was you. That means almost 10 years of total time, nonstop, is dedicated to watching TV.
That’s like turning the TV on when you’re 30 and never moving until you are 40. A lost decade.
Now, I’m not saying you shouldn’t watch TV or YouTube videos or surf Facebook. I personally enjoy watching the Cleveland Browns lose most Sundays. But to be successful, you have to change your behavior and make time to do the great things.
I have one friend that says she doesn’t have time to do anything, and yet she hasn’t missed an episode of Big Brother in 20 years. If you’re curious, that’s 550 hours of watching time.
Now let’s go back to our marketing fundamentals again.
When Robert Rose and I go into consulting engagements, besides not having the BIG goal and delivering consistently, do you know what else we find? Content run amok.
Content is being created everywhere … blogs and podcasts and videos with no discernable strategy.
Great media and product brands that have loyal audiences start by doing one thing amazingly well to one audience … a newspaper, a podcast, a blog, a video series, Instagram, an email newsletter.
So you most likely need to go back and start killing some things and just do one thing amazingly well before you diversify into other content types. In this case, less is more.
Do one thing amazingly well before you diversify into other #content types, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
Record. Repeat. Remove – a simple formula that’s hard to execute. A marathon if you will … not a sprint.
This formula got me to this place, but I almost lost it all by not following it.
My story
In 2007 I left an executive job in media to start a business. I had this great vision of a content marketing matching service between agencies and brands, that we dubbed the eHarmony of content marketing.
Now don’t laugh … at the time I thought it was brilliant.
My written desire was to have 100 paying customers by the end of 2009.
Over the next two years, we were struggling … burning through cash to pay for programming and marketing, increasing our debt. I was having doubts. Late summer 2009 was critically important. That was the time when we were approaching agencies in our system to see if they would pay for another year.
Most agencies were not re-signing to the $5,000 annual fee, and one in particular, our best case study where we delivered a multimillion-dollar client, still hadn’t signed up yet.
So I called the CEO on the phone. Let’s call her Paula. I said, ”Hey, hey Paula … for some reason your auto renew isn’t turned on in our system. Just wanted to make sure there wasn’t a problem.”
She said, “Oh yeah, about that … we decided not to renew.”
I said, “really … why is that?”
She said, “Well, we can get better ROI by doing some other things.”
And I said, “You can get better than 1,000% ROI somewhere else? What is it and I’ll sign up.”
There was silence for a bit … and she just said, “Sorry Joe, we’re not going to renew.”
And that was that.
I hung up the phone, went into my backyard, and just lost it. I couldn’t even close our best customer. I felt completely sorry for myself. A complete failure.
I couldn’t believe I had left a great job for nothing. I had an amazing wife and two small boys that I couldn’t take care of.
It took me a couple weeks to pull myself together. Secretly I’d already been peeking around to see if any full-time jobs were available, which actually made me feel even worse.
And then I went back to the success formula. I then noticed that all my goals were around selling a small product to help just a few people. Actually, my goals were quite small. They were also very “me” centric. There was nothing about adding value to others. Honestly, who cares if we reached 100 customers by 2009? No one. It was a terrible primary goal and didn’t follow any of what we are talking about here.
My career goal actually came to me while I was reading feedback from our blog subscribers. The requests were all around “our group needs training,” “are there other content marketing pros I can meet,” and “my CMO needs convincing.”
And I finally got it. Our audience needs education, not a hookup.
So we set the goal to be the world’s leading educational resource for content marketing to solve those audience issues. And we wanted to do this by the end of 2013.
And then I worked the formula. Recorded it … read and reviewed that goal first thing in the morning and before I went to bed and stopped doing everything else to focus on that.
My friends and loved ones thought I was crazy before. Now they thought I needed to be committed. I mean, still no one even knew what content marketing was and I was going “all in” with it?
Content Marketing Institute was born exactly nine months later in May of 2010 and the most amazing people in the world helped to join this new cause. The first ever Content Marketing World took place in Cleveland at the Renaissance Hotel in September 2011. We were hoping for 100 people to show up. Maybe 150 if we were really lucky. That year, 660 attendees showed up.
And by 2012, we accomplished our big, unreasonable goal. And today, here we are at Content Marketing World with 4,000 attendees.
There was no logical reason that we should have succeeded. There were dozens of other companies that should have created Content Marketing World. But we set the goal and worked the formula … just like Bruce Lee, like Warren Buffett, like Oprah.
You will do amazing things. You will change the world. But it’s a choice, and there is a process for making it happen.
Too many talented people I know decide to just swim down. It’s easier, it’s safe, it’s comfortable, and it’s seductive. But it doesn’t make the world a better place.
And one final thought … this odd quote from Bull Durham sums everything up:
If you believe you’re playing well because you’re getting laid, or because you’re not getting laid, or because you wear women’s underwear, then you are!
This means, whatever you believe you are doing for whatever reason is true.
And if you believe you are failing because of … your education, your skills, your job, your significant other, then you are!
But if we can reprogram our minds for success, we will be successful.
Tabula rasa … today you have a clean slate … and you can choose to reprogram your brain … your lives …or not.
Just like content marketing is a new muscle for most organizations, success planning is a muscle we have to build and work on every day.
So, in 2019 …
Document your desires.
Review them consistently every day.
Remove the clutter in your life so you can be successful.
Thank you!

3 Life and Marketing Success Resolutions for 2019

This text and the accompanying 30-minute video comes from my Content Marketing World 2018 keynote presentation. On Dec. 31, 2017, I “retired” from marketing and took a sabbatical for 2018 (which, as of this publishing, I’m still happily on).
I’ve given over 400 keynote speeches in 18 countries, but this one was the most personal. The team at CMI is nice enough to publish this so the entire CMI audience can watch and read it. I hope there is something here that will help you in your life or your marketing (hopefully both).
Yours in Content,

Hello Cleveland. It’s fantastic to be back here at Content Marketing World. Some of you may not know this, but I’ve been on a sabbatical for the last nine glorious months since leaving CMI.
In January, I spent 30 days electronics free. In February, I took my father to Sicily to see 60 cousins we’ve never met before, and the last six months, I’ve literally spent more time with my two boys than in the previous six years.
Disclaimer
The Pulizzi family is notorious for using disclaimers. So for this speech, here’s my disclaimer. I’ll cover some marketing, but this is much more about you and your success. I care about each of you way too much to just give you marketing advice … I want to give you more. That said, you may not like it. I’m willing to live with that. So here goes.
Tabula rasa
I first came across the term “tabula rasa” in 1995 while studying rhetoric at Penn State University. Tabula rasa or “clean slate” is found in the writings of Aristotle, and is the belief that we are each born with a blank slate and everything we learn … our habits … our behaviors … comes from our experiences.
What if, right here and now, you had a clean slate? You could do or be anything you wanted. Nothing in this world could hold you back from your accomplishments.
Now I want you to fast forward exactly one year to this time in 2019. What’s different? What did you accomplish in the last 365 days?
What about five years from now?
Are you rich?
Did you get the guy or the girl you wanted?
Did you have another child?
Did you travel the world?
Did you prevent your kids from growing up to be idiots?
Would you consider yourself a success? Have you made a positive impact on the world?
I’ve been studying success and successful people as long as I can remember … easily 30 years. As a young adult I kept a journal with me of all the things I wanted to do and accomplish, and listened to success audio tapes from Brian Tracy and Zig Zigler.
Even as I’ve been on this year-long sabbatical, I’ve kept this obsession about success.
Here’s the question: Why are some people successful and others are not? Is there a formula for success that put the odds in your favor?
What I’ve found is that most of us have conditioned our brains and have formed habits that preclude us from success. That means if we don’t change what we are doing, right now, the things you want to accomplish in 2019 or 2023 and beyond, both marketing and personal goals, will never happen.

Now, I’m not saying you shouldn’t watch TV or YouTube videos or surf Facebook. I personally enjoy watching the Cleveland Browns lose most Sundays. But to be successful, you have to change your behavior and make time to do the great things.
I have one friend that says she doesn’t have time to do anything, and yet she hasn’t missed an episode of Big Brother in 20 years. If you’re curious, that’s 550 hours of watching time.
Now let’s go back to our marketing fundamentals again.
When Robert Rose and I go into consulting engagements, besides not having the BIG goal and delivering consistently, do you know what else we find? Content run amok.
Content is being created everywhere … blogs and podcasts and videos with no discernable strategy.
Great media and product brands that have loyal audiences start by doing one thing amazingly well to one audience … a newspaper, a podcast, a blog, a video series, Instagram, an email newsletter.
So you most likely need to go back and start killing some things and just do one thing amazingly well before you diversify into other content types. In this case, less is more.
Do one thing amazingly well before you diversify into other #content types, says @JoePulizzi. Click To Tweet
Record. Repeat. Remove – a simple formula that’s hard to execute. A marathon if you will … not a sprint.
This formula got me to this place, but I almost lost it all by not following it.
My story
In 2007 I left an executive job in media to start a business. I had this great vision of a content marketing matching service between agencies and brands, that we dubbed the eHarmony of content marketing.
Now don’t laugh … at the time I thought it was brilliant.
My written desire was to have 100 paying customers by the end of 2009.
Over the next two years, we were struggling … burning through cash to pay for programming and marketing, increasing our debt. I was having doubts. Late summer 2009 was critically important. That was the time when we were approaching agencies in our system to see if they would pay for another year.
Most agencies were not re-signing to the $5,000 annual fee, and one in particular, our best case study where we delivered a multimillion-dollar client, still hadn’t signed up yet.
So I called the CEO on the phone. Let’s call her Paula. I said, ”Hey, hey Paula … for some reason your auto renew isn’t turned on in our system. Just wanted to make sure there wasn’t a problem.”
She said, “Oh yeah, about that … we decided not to renew.”
I said, “really … why is that?”
She said, “Well, we can get better ROI by doing some other things.”
And I said, “You can get better than 1,000% ROI somewhere else? What is it and I’ll sign up.”
There was silence for a bit … and she just said, “Sorry Joe, we’re not going to renew.”
And that was that.
I hung up the phone, went into my backyard, and just lost it. I couldn’t even close our best customer. I felt completely sorry for myself. A complete failure.
I couldn’t believe I had left a great job for nothing. I had an amazing wife and two small boys that I couldn’t take care of.
It took me a couple weeks to pull myself together. Secretly I’d already been peeking around to see if any full-time jobs were available, which actually made me feel even worse.
And then I went back to the success formula. I then noticed that all my goals were around selling a small product to help just a few people. Actually, my goals were quite small. They were also very “me” centric. There was nothing about adding value to others. Honestly, who cares if we reached 100 customers by 2009? No one. It was a terrible primary goal and didn’t follow any of what we are talking about here.
My career goal actually came to me while I was reading feedback from our blog subscribers. The requests were all around “our group needs training,” “are there other content marketing pros I can meet,” and “my CMO needs convincing.”
And I finally got it. Our audience needs education, not a hookup.
So we set the goal to be the world’s leading educational resource for content marketing to solve those audience issues. And we wanted to do this by the end of 2013.
And then I worked the formula. Recorded it … read and reviewed that goal first thing in the morning and before I went to bed and stopped doing everything else to focus on that.
My friends and loved ones thought I was crazy before. Now they thought I needed to be committed. I mean, still no one even knew what content marketing was and I was going “all in” with it?
Content Marketing Institute was born exactly nine months later in May of 2010 and the most amazing people in the world helped to join this new cause. The first ever Content Marketing World took place in Cleveland at the Renaissance Hotel in September 2011. We were hoping for 100 people to show up. Maybe 150 if we were really lucky. That year, 660 attendees showed up.
And by 2012, we accomplished our big, unreasonable goal. And today, here we are at Content Marketing World with 4,000 attendees.
There was no logical reason that we should have succeeded. There were dozens of other companies that should have created Content Marketing World. But we set the goal and worked the formula … just like Bruce Lee, like Warren Buffett, like Oprah.
You will do amazing things. You will change the world. But it’s a choice, and there is a process for making it happen.
Too many talented people I know decide to just swim down. It’s easier, it’s safe, it’s comfortable, and it’s seductive. But it doesn’t make the world a better place.
And one final thought … this odd quote from Bull Durham sums everything up:
If you believe you’re playing well because you’re getting laid, or because you’re not getting laid, or because you wear women’s underwear, then you are!
This means, whatever you believe you are doing for whatever reason is true.
And if you believe you are failing because of … your education, your skills, your job, your significant other, then you are!
But if we can reprogram our minds for success, we will be successful.
Tabula rasa … today you have a clean slate … and you can choose to reprogram your brain … your lives …or not.
Just like content marketing is a new muscle for most organizations, success planning is a muscle we have to build and work on every day.
So, in 2019 …
Document your desires.
Review them consistently every day.
Remove the clutter in your life so you can be successful.
Thank you!

CMO Global da Subway diz que a rede de alimentação não teve medo de mudar
Entrevista com Joe Tripodi sobre as mudanças que a rede de alimentação está fazendo para se manter na mente dos consumidores.
A Subway ocupa o décimo lugar no ranking "Top 100 Global Franchises". Segundo a marca, uma posição muito alta em um dos setores mais competitivos que operam sob o modelo de franquias. Com 2.122 restaurantes no Brasil e poucos dias depois de abrir o primeiro restaurante Fresh Forward no país, a marca sabe claramente que transformação é evolução e exige que pensemos além do convencional em um negócio em que há ainda muito espaço para inovação.
Mas do que se trata essa transformação? Joe Tripodi, CMO Global da Subway, explica. "Precisávamos injetar mais energia juvenil, sermos mais corajosos. Os consumidores recebem milhares de mensagens todos os dias. É cada vez mais difícil atingir a Geração Z e os Millenials, e a marca não poderia se dar ao luxo de que sua publicidade se convertesse em paisagem”, completa o executivo.
Joe Tripodi, que foi vice-presidente executivo e diretor de marketing e vendas da Coca-Cola, juntou-se ao time da Subway em dezembro de 2015 no cargo de diretor de marketing global, como uma estratégia da empresa para evoluir, inovar e melhorar.
Uma das principais mudanças na personalidade e no tom de voz da marca surgiu durante os últimos Jogos Olímpicos de Inverno, nos quais a marca lançou uma nova campanha com o lema: “Make It What You Want”. Esta é uma estratégia que visa mostrar que a marca representa um estilo de vida. "E queremos fazer isto de duas maneiras: incentivando um estilo de vida saudável e através da música, exaltando a customização que o menu oferece."
"Acreditamos que mostrar um estilo de vida ativo e vibrante se encaixa muito bem com o legado da nossa marca e nossa tradição de uma alimentação saudável. Por outro lado, a música é um meio poderoso para exaltar a nossa mensagem-chave: a customização e a possibilidade de escolha que todo mundo tem. Com esta campanha, queremos destacar esse atributo de uma forma mais poderosa e impactante", diz Tripodi.
"Qualquer modernização e transformação de uma empresa é acompanhada de uma compreensão do cliente. E o cliente da Subway quer um sanduíche nutritivo a um preço acessível. Por isso, é importante entender que o preço é o que você paga, mas o valor é o que se obtém. Acreditamos que temos muitas dimensões para nossa marca, seja pela nossa vasta presença ou grande variedade de opções: esse tipo de escolha é valioso. O fato de que você tem a opção de esquentar seu sanduíche ou de comer cookies assados diariamente no restaurante, várias opções diferentes de molho, etc. Todas estas possibilidades criam um valor", diz Tripodi.
Tantas mudanças e novas estratégias podem desgastar uma empresa, mas a Subway® tem certeza de que é hora de dar um salto na direção certa e continuar a avançar. "Trata-se da melhoria contínua. Quando você dá um passo atrás, levanta seus pés e relaxa, isto é o começo do fim. A complacência e a perda de relevância são coisas que destroem muitas marcas: perder essa conexão emocional", concluiu Joe Tripodi.
SAIBA MAIS. A Subway informa oferecer uma alternativa para o fast food tradicional, servindo 7 milhões de sanduíches por dia. Os clientes escolhem entre 37 milhões de combinações de proteínas de qualidade, vegetais frescos e pão assado diariamente. A maior rede de restaurantes do mundo serve opções nutritivas e deliciosas em mais de 44.000 restaurantes em 113 países. Fundada há mais de 52 anos pelo jovem Fred DeLuca, que tinha apenas 17 anos de idade, e por um amigo da família, o Dr. Peter Buck, a marca informa que continua sendo uma empresa familiar que atualmente trabalha com mais de 21.000 franqueados dedicados em todo o mundo. Subway é uma marca registrada da Subway IP Inc.

Five predictions for health tech and services in 2017
New Post has been published on http://www.greggsdiabetes.com/predictions-health-tech-services-2017/
Five predictions for health tech and services in 2017
1. The 21st Century Cures Act makes “Real World Evidence” a buzzword in pharma and payer circles, and justifiably so
For the uninitiated, “Real World Evidence” (RWE) is a term that has received much and attention and debate as a core component of the 21st Century Cures Act: a bill that received much press coverage in Q4 2016. The term refers to health care information about the use of a drug after it has been approved by the FDA and prescribed to patients in the “real world.” This data is usually derived from electronic health records, claims databases, and patient-reported registries. Given the several ramifications of the Cures Act, 2017 will see pharma and payers clamor to acquire solutions to harness the power of RWE, creating new revenue opportunities for incumbents and early stage companies.
Amongst its many regulations, the Cures Act speeds up the FDA New Drug Approval process while earmarking short term funding for other health related programs like NIH research, mental health, and Joe Biden’s cancer “Moonshot” initiative. The Act passed in overwhelmingly bipartisan fashionwith a 295 – 14 vote in the house. Perhaps the most subtle, yet profound component of the law allows Pharma companies to do post-market launch research around “real world use” (read: off-label) of drug products. If data suggests positive outcomes of off label use, this evidence can be used to expand the indications of use for that drug. This game changer will allow biopharma companies to save tens to hundreds of millions of dollars as the previous standard practice of expanding indications required re-running costly randomized control trials.
In addition to expanding indications, there are a host of other biopharma use cases for RWE highlighted in the below QuintilesIMS schematic where the case is made for a Billion dollar opportunity per pharma client.
From a payer perspective, the impact of expanding indications will be immediate, but the looming hazard is the sheer volume of high cost, specialty drugs and biosimilars coming to market sooner than ever before. To mitigate the uncertainty of the value of new, high-cost drugs, Payers are turning to value based contracts powered by RWE. A great example is my former employer, Harvard Pilgrim Health Plan and their CMO Michael Sherman, who has pioneered a series of value based contracts for high cost cholesterol and congestive heart failure drugs.
Given the above catalysts, there is a clamoring in both biopharma and payer circles for solutions to harness the power of RWE.  Answering this call are a score of companies who are focusing on “value based” therapeutics analyses. One exciting company with significant market traction focused exclusively on RWE is NYC based Aetion (Arrivi, Lakestar). The company, founded by Harvard pharmacoepidemiologists and Wall Street data scientists, is pioneering the concept of “Rapid Cycle Analytics” in healthcare. On behalf of its pharma and payer customers, the multidisciplinary team performs real-time simulated studies drawing on terabytes of distributed international data sets. With statistical precision, the company can perform comparative effectiveness studies and reproduce the results of large scale clinical trials with 10x the speed of traditional methods of database programming, statistical modeling, and analysis.
There are a handful of health tech analytics companies previously focused on biopharma market access, reimbursement, and R&D efficiency that are now reorienting around the RWE use case. Some notable early stage tech companies here are GNS Healthcare (Cambia/Echo, Alexandria) and Truveris(Canaan, New Leaf, First Round). In addition to these early stage companies, the Large HCIT Conglomerates (QuintilesIMS, Optum, Truven/IBM, Inovalon) and traditional consulting firms (Avalere, ZS Associates, Decisions Resources Group) are starting to devote significant resources to this emerging opportunity in RWE and are likely acquirers in this space.
Special mention in this category goes to Flare Portfolio company, Health Verity. The company is led by successful serial entrepreneur Andrew Kress, who sold his last health data start up SDI to QuintilesIMS in 2011. Health Verity is pioneering new ways for large healthcare enterprises to buy and sell rich healthcare data. By liberating, enriching, and marketing previously siloed patient data, Health Verity is on pace to become a market leading supplier of the RWE mentioned above.
2. Clinical Decision Support moves into the world of Prescriptive Analytics and finally takes root
The delivery of scalable, patient centered, evidence based clinical decision support (CDS) to entire populations has been viewed as one of the “Holy Grails” of health tech. This promise has led to a score of CDS companies being built on the way to creating a $500M market for CDS solutions. But given the universal appeal for CDS in the addressable market of providers and payers, some would argue that the opportunity has been largely undershot. In the following paragraphs, I’ll attempt to make the case for why 2017 is the year that CDS solutions begin to overcome their previous barriers and finally take root in the market through incorporation of big data and cognitive commutive resources.
It is estimated that up to 50 percent of medical care for chronic conditions does not adhere to evidence-based medicine/guidelines (EBM). This statistic is compounded by the fact that 86 percent of all US healthcare costs are a result of complications of chronic disease. When analyzing the high prevalence of non-EBM in chronic conditions such as cardiac disease, diabetes, and renal disease, its generally accepted that systematic adoption of patient centered EBM portends improved outcomes and potential cost savings.
CDS 1.0 saw the health tech industry simply digitize long lists of clinical guidelines into workflow tools. A common tech manifestation of this trend was the “order set.” Order sets are essentially checklists or protocols that direct a clinician to order certain tests and medicines when they encounter a patient with a certain clinical condition (e.g. A CHF or COPD order set). A notable company from this era was Zynx Health, co-founded by CDS Veteran and Cedars Sinai Chief Clinical Transformation Officer Dr. Scott Weingarten. Zynx was ultimately bought and sold twice, first by Cerner, and then subsequently to Hearst Media. Criticisms of this first wave of CDS companies was a lack of patient-centeredness. The guideline-based recommendations did not change from unique patient to the next, which led to providers decrying one-size fits all “Cookbook” medicine.
I would contend we are starting to see CDS 2.0 with early stage companies pioneering the relative new trend of Prescriptive Analytics. These new entrants are combining predictive population health analytics with that of evidence based guidelines and compiling these data sets to make patient-centric recommended interventions pertinent to a patient’s current condition. This new wave of CDS companies are using virtual data warehousing, natural language processing, and Cognitive computing to incorporate disparate data sets, determine causative factors and predict outcomes.
There are a handful of next generation CDS companies that are attacking varying elements of the care spectrum using the prescriptive analytics strategy. In the Care Management space, an exciting early entrant is the stealthy, NYC-based HealthReveal, founded by Dr. Lonny Reisman. Prior to seeding and starting HealthReveal, Lonny served as chief medical officer of Aetna after his start-up Active Healthwas acquired by Aetna for $400M. HealthReveal is predicated on the ability to identify individuals in a population who are not receiving evidence-based care, then recommending evidence-based interventions, called “Reveals,” to the responsible clinician or care manager. Two other notable players in the care management space are venture-backed Lumiata (Khosla, Intel, Sandbox) and Atlanta based Jvion (Eastside).  Led by CEO Ash Damle, an MIT trained data scientist, Lumiata company is pioneering the use of AI to identify populations that are at highest risk of adverse clinical outcomes, and directing care management through the codification of the world of clinical evidence. Jvion is harnessing their cognitive clinical success machine to serve a variety of use cases from preventing readmissions to driving success in value-based payments.
Two companies that are exclusively focused on CDS at the patient bedside through integration with Providers’ EHR and ordering systems are Stanson Health and PeraHealth. Stanson Health (Cedars Sinai), co-founded by previously mentioned Scott Weingarten is a continuation of his work at Zynx. Stanson attempts to reduce low value and unnecessary care by pinging clinicians with context-driven alerts and prompts at the point of care. PeraHealth (Mainsail) provides real-time CDS tools that are based on the Rothman Index: a validated clinical measure of patient condition/stability based on 26 independent variables. With an installed base of 80 hospitals, PeraHealth helps clinicians better predict and anticipate transitions in care, readmissions, and morality.
There are a host of large legacy players who will continue to speak to the opportunity in clinical decision support, most notably the large EHR Vendors (EPIC, Cerner, Allscripts, Athenahealth) as well as HCIT stalwarts (IBM/Watson, Optum). Given the platform nature of these companies, it is likely that they will be acquirers of these next gen CDS models that will continue to come to market in 2017.
3. MACRA spells the end of the standalone primary care provider and health tech looks to fill the void
In late 2016, CMS overrode the way Medicare physicians received payment with the passage of MACRA (Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act). The legacy approach to physician payment, known as the Sustainable Growth Rate (or “doc fix”), was based on a fee for service backbone. MACRA details how physician payment and its adjustment over time will occur after 2018. These payment adjustments will be based on two value-based criteria: involvement in Alternative Payment Models (APM – such as ACOs and CMMI demonstration projects) and a Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS). With MACRA reporting to begin in 2018, I predict that 2017 will see increased market adoption of health tech solutions to manage and automate primary care operations.
Prognosticators familiar with nominated HHS Secretary Dr. Tom Price’s preferences predict that MACRA will remain unchanged in the new administration given its broad bipartisan support. What may change though, is shifting of mandatory APM rollouts such as the CJR (Complete Joint Replacement) demonstration project and cardiovascular bundles to optional/voluntary participation. This switch to voluntary participation is possible because the APM component of MACRA is a bonus payment until 2026, when it then becomes a requirement and a lion’s share of the payment adjustment schedule. The below chart shows the dollar flows in typical APM structure for the average PCP.
For the next 10 years, MIPS (Merit Based Incentive Payment System) will become the required, default system of clinician payment adjustment. The MIPS adjustments start at a (+/-) adjustment of 4 percent of Medicare revenue, but ultimately grow to (+/-) 9 percent by 2022. Said another way, a clinician can stand to gain a bonus or a dock in pay equal to the adjustment figure in a given year. The MIPS system is based on four components of reporting of care of varying significance: quality, value-based payment practices, meaningful EHR use, and clinician improvement activities.
Compliance with MIPS reporting and achieving success in target measures creates a significant burden requiring dedicated infrastructure. Independent primary care groups will understandably struggle to comply and succeed in a post-MACRA world. Even large integrated practices will require new workflows given the potential 10-plus percent swings in Medicare revenue. Given the need for new infrastructure, I predict we will see the continued trend of consolidation of independent practices and entry by health tech/service start-ups offering MACRA compliance and optimization services.
The last five years have seen emergence of a spectrum of primary care practice management/value based care enablement offerings in the market. Three well-funded leaders in this space are Aledade(Venrock, GV, Biomatics), Village MD (Oak HC/FT), and Lightbeam Health (Hearst, 7 Wire). Y Combinator alum Able Health and Greenville based Chartspan (Iron Yard), represent new entrant, pure play MACRA enablement solutions. There are a host of start-ups who have pioneered Chronic Care Management (CCM) reimbursement code submission that are also well positioned to power MACRA compliance. Two notable players in this space are CareSync (Greycroft, Harbert, Merck GHI) and MD Revolution (Jump). I predict that this is just the tip of the iceberg, and venture investors will see a flood of new entrants combining aspects of the above business models to serve the growing need of primary care practices in a post-MACRA world.
4. Start-ups develop a “high risk” appetite and target “node” conditions in high risk populations such as Medicare Advantage and Dual Eligibles
Some would consider that the “First Act” of Digital Health innovation (2011 – 2015) was heavy on hype and light on substance. Quantified self was the battle cry with a focus on the “worried well” population who have relatively low average annual healthcare expenses of $4,400. Many entrepreneurs and investors bought in, with decidedly mixed results. Veterans from this era have learned that tech in healthcare requires a more utilitarian approach: there must be a valuable “use case” or core costly problem being solved to generate a willingness to pay (WTP). A great example of this WTP is care management in the high cost populations of Medicare Advantage and Dual Eligibles. By the sheer number of medical conditions in these populations, management is problematic with average total medical expense ranging from $10,000 to $30,000 per year. I predict that 2017 and the “Second Act” of digital health will see a continued trend of entrepreneurs gravitating towards the sickest and highest cost members of our population, delivering valuable tech enabled solutions for “node” conditions that drive costs for individual patients.
An interesting phenomenon that is emerging amongst many successful start-ups targeting high-risk populations is the focus on what I’m calling a “node” condition. These “node” conditions (e.g. a terminal illness, end stage renal disease, chronic pain, behavioral health, and frailty) are the most advanced in a patient’s medical history and serve as the cost driver condition for a patient. Because of this centrality, the specialty care team responsible for the “node” condition can best manage the total cost of care for the patient. This is the concept behind the “specialty medical home,” a model being piloted across the country. Many spectators have doubts as to whether specialist physicians can truly manage the total cost of care of patients, and entrepreneurs are rushing in. Early stage companies are designing full stack, tech-enabled services to manage these “node” conditions, and then inking contracts with payers/providers that allow start-ups to “go at risk” and participate on the upside of potential savings realized.
Two notable early stage companies managing care in patients with terminal illness are Landmark Health (Francisco Partners) led by former Accretive Investor Adam Boehler, and Nashville based Aspire Health (GV, Oak, Sandbox), co-founded by Senator Bill Frist. With the end of life period being the costliest period of all, these companies are providing palliative care services that dramatically lower costs as they aid patients and families transition from chronic illness to palliation.
An interesting early stage company attacking the high cost node condition of end stage kidney disease is Cricket Health (First Round, Boxgroup). Co-founded by former LinkedIn exec Arvind Rajan and Aberdare Partner Vince Kim, the company’s HOPE platform identifies patients at risk for advanced kidney disease and delivers a navigation service that educates and attempts to lower the cost of care for these patients.
Two additional node conditions that are often connected and have a high prevalence in these high-risk populations are chronic pain and mental illness. It’s well documented that patients with chronic pain have healthcare costs that are two to three times that of the general population. Two companies that are focused on delivering tech enabled management solutions to this population are MOBE and Axial. MOBE provides a unique solution for payers that identifies patients with chronic pain and delivers comprehensive CBT and coaching to improve health outcomes. Venture-backed Axial Healthcare (Oak, Sandbox, 406) is developing comprehensive analytic solutions that monitor prescriber and patient behavior to help navigate high-risk patients to receive care at centers of pain excellence (COPE). I’ve written extensively about behavioral health tech companies that are delivering much needed, cost saving solutions to these high-risk populations.
A final special mention is in the emerging awareness of the node condition of frailty. Although seen as a natural progression of aging, there is a medical diagnosis that corresponds to frailty known as failure to thrive. Many start-ups are now rushing into the frailty space to provide services to delay this gradual decline and in turn, preventing high cost complications. Two special early stage mentions in this category are Welbe Health and Attuned Care. Bay Area based Welbe (F-Prime) is implementing the much-acclaimed PACE program which provides Medicare reimbursement for delivering common activities of daily living such as meals, transportation, and home care assistance. Chicago-based Attuned Care is providing comprehensive care services for the high needs populations of Assisted Living communities.
I predict start-ups in 2017 will continue to hone in on node conditions, and will be rewarded as payers and at-risk providers look to the market to deliver best in breed solutions to their populations
5. Health tech industry innovation will not waver over the next 4 years, it will subscribe to republican orthodoxy and free market forces
Most of the preceding predictions will be impacted by the election of a Donald Trump administration, and perhaps more importantly, a systematic republican transfer of power. Post the 2016 election, Republicans have the majority in both houses of congress: Senate (R – 52, D – 46, I – 2) and House (R – 241, D – 194). On a state level, there is a predominance of republican governors (R – 33, D – 16, I – 1)and republican controlled state legislatures (32 states – accounting for 61 percent of the population). This is important given that a likely GOP ACA replacement plan would leave much fine-tuning of policy to the states. It should be no surprise then that traditional republican policy will prevail, and prudent entrepreneurs and investors should prepare for that.
For the next four years, we should expect legislative reforms that reflect traditional republican principles, specifically: deregulation and less federal government oversight of industry, privatization of federal programs, and re-appropriation of funds from entitlement programs. We should expect a very active climate of legislation as both the legislative (Congress) and executive (Health and Human Services) branches of government promise to enact healthcare reform. The key representatives of both branches have made attempts to replace Obamacare and are on record regarding their wish lists. Representing the legislative branch, Speaker Paul Ryan has spearheaded a concerted effort on behalf of his congressional caucus and think tank groups to author his “A Better Way” series for his vision on the elements of a repeal plan. Representing the executive branch, HHS nominee Dr. Price has previously submitted his version of a replacement plan — Empowering Patients First Act, HR 2519— four times in four different congresses. Finally, the last republican congress actually passed an ACA repeal bill – Restoring American Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act of 2015, HR 3762 —  that was ultimately vetoed by President Obama. Ultimately the details of the ACA replacement plan will become clear in the months to come, but the essential elements of the plan will be held in the plans noted above.
And as expected, in joining my brethren of investor health tech bloggers, I am compelled to include my guesses at what replaces the ACA. Sticking with the trends approach, I’ve selected key items that will face either headwinds or tailwinds in the new congress. I’ve also included the sources that led to these predictions.
Overall, our team at Flare Capital is very bullish about continued value creation in the healthcare sector through traditional free market forces. Whereas the last eight years have seen healthcare innovation driven by the federal government, we believe the market will now become the leading driver of change. We predict that enterprises will attempt to improve their bottom line, gain market share, and achieve differentiation through continued adoption of innovative health tech and services. We believe that many big businesses will be built by providing solutions to this end for the multi-trillion dollar US healthcare market. We hope that this market-driven lens, combined with the preceding sector specific predictions, provides all participants a guide to navigating dramatic change in the coming year.

2017 Trends for CMOs: Ignite Content Performance with Influencers
Companies launching into new markets often spend substantial budgets on advertising and PR in order to create awareness. These investments can be significant when there is no existing affinity between the brand and the solution in target markets.
For example, Orange France faced this challenge when launching Homelive, a connected home management platform for IoT devices. Turning to their influencer marketing platform, Traackr, the company identified and engaged influencers in new communities outside of high tech and marketing to include lifestyle design and connected home. These influencers were engaged to create reviews on their blogs and inspire social traffic.
The result was over 20,000 unique visitors per day on the campaign website along with 14,000 social mentions, a majority share of voice on social media, and first-page visibility on Google on important keywords. The program was successful not because of overspending on ads and PR, but because of integrating specific and relevant influencer communities with content marketing.
Launching into new markets can be an uphill battle to create brand awareness, credibility, and engagement and is a common challenge with companies worldwide. In addition to the costs associated with sophisticated advertising and PR campaigns, increasing consumer demand for quality content in combination with distrust of branded content and advertising has senior marketing executives looking for options.
From the promise of increased consumer trust to better conversion rates and retention rates, content co-created with industry influencers is an attractive approach for many brands that are challenged to keep up with content quantity and effectiveness. According to research by TrackMaven, over the past two years output of content has increased by 78%, but content engagement has decreased by 60%.
In fact, there’s a lot to be optimistic about for senior marketing executives who are considering an influential approach to content marketing. Some 82% of consumers surveyed would follow recommendations from influencers, according to a study by Dr. Johah Berger from the Wharton School, while a study from Burst Media reports an average of $9.60 earned media value for every $1 spent working with influencers.
Both B2C and B2B marketers can benefit from an influencer-focused approach to content marketing. Instead of viewing influencers as shills for conference tweets or simply as industry celebrities for publicity, CMOs can approach influencer relationships as a content partnership that provides mutual value.
But how? There are a myriad options when it comes to influencer content programs, but many of these efforts can be segmented into three use cases.
1. Micro-content: These are often short-form content contributions including quotes, tips, or insight from individual influencers that are added to brand content assets.
A great example of micro-content application would be LinkedIn’s now famous Sophisticated Marketers’ Guides championed by Jason Miller, group manager of global content and social media marketing at LinkedIn. The first edition included short-form contributions in an “ask the expert” format and as pull quotes included in an ebook, webinar, and infographic and translated into several languages.
The first Sophisticated Marketers’ Guide resulted in over 10,000 downloads, 3,000 MQLs, and a staggering 21,000% ROI.
2. Campaigns: Longer-form content contributions by a group of influencers, often as part of a larger campaign.
Traackr recently published a good example of influencer campaign content, aptly named “Influencer Marketing in Real Life,” by co-ordinating an event and subsequent content with major brand executives and industry influencers. Contributors including executives from Cisco, Marriott, and Dell were interviewed along with industry influencers including Joe Pulizzi, Ann Handley, and Jay Baer by email and phone, and were also engaged in person at an event during an industry conference for professional photos.
Over 50% of the content for the campaign was created by participating influencers and the ebook beat benchmark download goals by 1,883%.
3. Community: Brands that can commit to influencer engagement and see the value of ongoing relationships will identify and activate a dedicated group of influencers who participate in a mix of scenarios and contribute a variety of short and long-form content.
Phillips implemented a digital command center that leveraged social media monitoring, content creation, engagement, and analysis to monitor and engage three key groups of influencers. It wanted to “own” and influence conversations around important topics including clean air; smart home; look good, feel good; ageing well; and connected work spaces. Engaging with influencer communities around each conversation, three types of content were co-created including long-form content, editorial, and social content.
The program expects to have 4,000 to 5,000 pieces of content created per conversation area.
Influencer Content For The Win Senior marketing executives who think about influencers as partners and participants in the brand conversation with customers can tap into an incredible resource that offers mutual value to both the brand and the influencers. By activating influencers to co-create content and amplify it to their respective audiences, brands can extend their reach to new customers in a credible way that can inspire relevant conversation, purchases, and advocacy.
When CMOs increase their marketing organization’s ability to plan and implement integrated influencer content programs, the result is not only an increase in quality content that customers actually want to engage with, but qualitative relationships with the influencer participants.

2017 Trends for CMOs: Ignite Content Performance with Influencers
Companies launching into new markets often spend substantial budgets on advertising and PR in order to create awareness. These investments can be significant when there is no existing affinity between the brand and the solution in target markets.
For example, Orange France faced this challenge when launching Homelive, a connected home management platform for IoT devices. Turning to their influencer marketing platform, Traackr, the company identified and engaged influencers in new communities outside of high tech and marketing to include lifestyle design and connected home. These influencers were engaged to create reviews on their blogs and inspire social traffic.
The result was over 20,000 unique visitors per day on the campaign website along with 14,000 social mentions, a majority share of voice on social media, and first-page visibility on Google on important keywords. The program was successful not because of overspending on ads and PR, but because of integrating specific and relevant influencer communities with content marketing.
Launching into new markets can be an uphill battle to create brand awareness, credibility, and engagement and is a common challenge with companies worldwide. In addition to the costs associated with sophisticated advertising and PR campaigns, increasing consumer demand for quality content in combination with distrust of branded content and advertising has senior marketing executives looking for options.
From the promise of increased consumer trust to better conversion rates and retention rates, content co-created with industry influencers is an attractive approach for many brands that are challenged to keep up with content quantity and effectiveness. According to research by TrackMaven, over the past two years output of content has increased by 78%, but content engagement has decreased by 60%.
In fact, there’s a lot to be optimistic about for senior marketing executives who are considering an influential approach to content marketing. Some 82% of consumers surveyed would follow recommendations from influencers, according to a study by Dr. Johah Berger from the Wharton School, while a study from Burst Media reports an average of $9.60 earned media value for every $1 spent working with influencers.
Both B2C and B2B marketers can benefit from an influencer-focused approach to content marketing. Instead of viewing influencers as shills for conference tweets or simply as industry celebrities for publicity, CMOs can approach influencer relationships as a content partnership that provides mutual value.
