As you know, I am a proponent of Antimimeticisomorphism. This is an example of that kinf of out-of-the-ordinary thinking.

As a reader and/or subscriber to this and my other blogs, you already know that I have a holistic approach to life and business. I live and promote a “purpose driven life” that requires that you find and follow your passions. To help find your purpose and passions, you can begin by asking yourself the […]
Every once in a while* someone does something so out-of-the-ordinary that you have to do something about it. In this instance, it started about 3 years ago when I walked into a Runner’s retail shop called Running Room. First of all, this was in Richmond, Vancouver, Canada. Well Steveston if you want to be specific […]
Sydney’s Private Jeweler, Sam Kritsotakis, recently opened his new Eskae Boutique in Mosman… The reason that’s newsworthy is because a lot of businesses are struggling, yet our clients are thriving and expanding. The reason is simple. They are applying antimimeticisomorphism principles of Exponential Mindset Thinking – having fun, doing out–of-the-ordinary things that create extra-ordinary results […]
A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way […]
Watch this video and ask yourself the question – would you sit down? When I explain Antimimeticisomorphism to my clients, I always specify being different for a deliberate purpose without being provocative.

As a recent Economist Magazine article explains, denial is useless. Spread happy truths instead. “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on. ” Winston Churchill IF YOU Google the phrase “Middle East rumours”, the first link that pops up is not, as you might […]
Even though I don’t own a dog, I love em! I especially enjoy visiting Paddington Pups as you can see below. I mean c’mon – life doesn’t get any better than spending it with happy, playful puppiess and dogs who love you unconditionally. Paddington Pups is raising money and awareness for the Millan Foundation setup […]
We have all heard the saying “A picture is worth a thousand words”, but a TERRIBLE picture can lose you 1,000 clients. This photo was taken from a Facebook page for a restaurant. You be the judge – would you want to eat there? It’s no surprise (to me) that this restaurant is struggling to […]
As The Exponential Growth Strategist, once of the cornerstone principles of exponential marketing is uncovering hidden assets. This real life example made me take notice because it’s utterly brilliant! The only improvement I could make to this creative idea is to identify the balls to the matches played and sell those at a premium. (I […]
Exponential Marketing has a cornerstone concept: Add value to your clients and they will come back and refer more clients to you. Easier said than done. That’s why I’ve included a simple example: An Australia Post Postcard Fact Sheet that helps clients prepare their documents for direct mail. The question for YOU is “What basic […]

This is an example of a superbly written explanation. It’s direct, to the point and reinforces why Qantas remains the safest airline in the world.

One of the foundational principles of Exponential Marketing is creating value for your suspects, prospects and clients. Easier said than done.

Everyone involved in direct mail wants to increase response rates. I came across a blog post that explains how you can significantly increase direct mail response rates. I’ve used this strategy countless times. Of course you don’t want to overdo using post it notes as the video below confirms.
As a reader or subscriber to this blog, you’re well aware of the Exponential Strategies I teach my clients. One of the foundational principles is to create value and the leverage will come, on its own, as if by magic. I have several award-winning clients, but one sticks out right now well above the others […]
I was recently working with a client, Bree Robbins of Paddington Pups in Brisbane. As her business coach and mentor, we were discussing how she can differentiate herself within her existing product and service offering. I’m not advocating this is the primary theme, but rather a secondary or additional Pathway to Profit™. When a dog […]
One of the reasons I like to blog is to find and then share stuff you otherwise would never come across on your own. I got this request by email and thought it was a great idea. Sometimes you have to get our of your box and try something new to get a different result.
