Hi

 

Isn’t it weird how things happen sometimes?

 

Earlier this week I wrote a blog post on the different types of opportunity that always come from a crisis

 

It’s here if you have 5 minutes

 

Later that day my friend and ex colleague Chris called me with some details about a project he wants me to help with

 

Like me he’s an ex Audio visual/events services guy and has built up a lot of contacts over the last 20 years or so

 

And as events look like they’ll start happening again fairly soon a Covid testing opportunity has arisen

 

Anyone attending a large scale live event will need to have a recent negative Covid test in order to buy a ticket

 

And the plan is to team up with a top medical organisation to get the ball rolling

 

I’m going to a meeting next Friday in Edinburgh with some of the stakeholders

 

My role will be in sales if I decide its something I want to do but of course I won’t be doing any traditional door knocking, telesales etc

 

Not with all the Internet tools at my disposal and several years of internet marketing under my belt

 

In fact when I outlined the approach I would take to Chris he was pretty impressed.

 

“How did you learn all this stuff mate?” were his exact words.

 

Of course you know the answer to that one don’t you?

 

If not - read the blog post here

 

And have a great weekend!
