Did you know?

11 March 2010 No Comment

This is one of those videos, that makes you think.

Years it took to reach a market audience of 50 million:

  • Radio – 38 years
  • TV – 13 years
  • Internet – 4 years
  • iPod – 3 years
  • Facebook – 2 years

It is estimated that a week’s worth of the New York Times contains more information than a person was likely to come across in a lifetime in the 18th century (I’ve used this info in my book “Trigger events” in 2007!)

There are 31 Billion searches on Google every month. In 2006, this number was 2.7 Billion. To whom were these questions addressed B.G.? (Before Google)

So what does it all mean?

The 21st Century changes the rules of engagement. Business world is changing daily, and if you are not at least trying to keep up with the changes, you are becoming the dinosaur of sales. Read more about selling in 21st Century.

“Wanting connections, we found connections — always, everywhere, and between everything. The world exploded in a whirling network of kinships, where everything pointed to everything else, everything explained everything else …” – Foucault’s Pendulum, Umberto Eco, 1988 (My favourite author!)
