Politics and Law

Politics and Business are so similar in a large number of ways. Sure politics is even dirtier and generally played by less ethical homeowners and yet the similarities are often uncanny. Perhaps a brief point-by-point comment on this subject will open a new perspective on this subject. Below are a few similarities to help the thinking juices flow and allow some conceptual thoughts.1.) In politics you must canvas the area using data about the voters; in market you use demographic software to gather info about the customer.2.) In politics you have to get the voter to obtain a decision to vote for your candidate; in business you have to get the consumer to choose your product or tool in your competitor.3.) In politics you must employ various methods to reach the voter; In boom any great re&wshyp;selling plan uses multiple media, mediums and methods to reach the consumer.4.) In politics you must show how your candidate is higher and different; In business you must show how your type is best.5.) In politics you must get those people to the polls to vote; in business you must get those people in the door of your business to buy something.6.) In politics you must win or you are forgotten; In business you must beat your competition and the patron should buy according to you or you go out of business.7.) In politics the customer decides with his or her vote; in business your voter buys your product or service with his or her dollar.I hope this philosophical discussion allows you to see business from a several perspective and if you are in business and considering politics, forget it. Business is a much better game than politics and as a politician might say; You Can Trust Me on This in 2006.
