The vision of man going to the Moon united the world. And fifty years ago, this feat was proven possible when the Apollo 11 successfully landed the first humans on the Moon.
Indeed, strength and success are found when vision and alignment connect.
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing, let’s take a look at the video below of President John F. Kennedy’s September 12, 1962 speech at Rice University.

It’s Only Common Sense: Selling With Confidence
08/30/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseOne thing that frustrates me is when salespeople feel they have to beg their customers — for a meeting, a quote, or an order. What does that say about you as a salesperson if you feel that you have to beg your customer for anything? Let’s face it, if you honestly felt that you had the world’s best product or service, you would act like you are doing your customer a favor and not the other way around.
It’s Only Common Sense: Hear That? It’s Opportunity Knocking
08/26/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseI was reading the Sunday comics the other day when I came across a statement in “Hi and Lois” or maybe it was “Arlo and Janis” — one of those deep philosophical comic strips.

It’s Only Common Sense: More of My Favorite Customer Service Stories
08/12/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseCustomer service is getting worse. How about those pain-in-the-neck supermarket self-checkouts? How about whenever you approach somebody at Best Buy or Home Depot and they are never the right person? The right person is on break. Is it too easy to attack the airlines? Way too easy. Let’s just say that paying to get on the plane early, paying to borrow a blanket, and paying for Wi-Fi is going in the wrong direction. Although I don’t think we have hit bottom yet. That will come with paying to use the toilets and renting life jackets at a premium depending on the severity of the emergency. Never underestimate the creativity (cruelty?) of a hungry bean counter.
