I see the mistake of trying to SELL your idea, rather than finding out first, what people want. This guy is a great resource, maybe you can reconnect with to find out what they really want to know, THEN, create a product or a two hour seminar, he could even host, for free to his buyers. You share your hacks with them.

I think the approach was wrong, do you see it that way Millard?

Gordon,

I see your point. Since I think marketing a lot of the time, that is what I focused on. Talk about a beginner mistake ! (Slaps forehead)

It does make more sense to teach a number of benefits most folks don't see when they purchase a Mac. I can easily talk to the owner of the store and ask what all these seasoned citizens use their Mac for.... and go from there.

I appreciate the fact that you take a 30,000 foot view of things and can observe the things we overlook.

Thanks Gordon !
