"GG said: "We are not going to give away all the ERI team’s secrets but we will share the basic principles with you:"

1-If you are going to do a global launch you must assemble and manage a multi-cultural management team. Hire the best!

2-Go Direct. Agents, reps, and distributors cannot sell new concepts and technology. Direct, motivated employees can/will.

3-Retrofit existing plants. Get a reference plants out there for engineers and operators to validate savings. In a global launch do several--make them accessible. Clients must travel no more than a few hours to talk with the operators to validate benefits.

4-You must establish a Global network of factory-trained technicians and spare part depots to support your product.

5-Identify, contact, and work with, validators and connectors to support your quest. Read: Six degrees of separation.

6-Share the wealth. Recognize and pay the people who help you. Work with your board to give lots of options to your employees to make them stakeholders. Do more options!

7-Break the market codes. Understand your product, your industry, and your clients—avoid “Cargo Cult” Marketing"

... is "personal advice", inappropriate for a wikipedia article unless this guy wrote a book on it (self-published sources). take it out or leave it? also, this article seems really pointless in general. a lot of advertisement and not much other info. - rairakku(talk to me) 16:10, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
