The Monday Morning Memo

This is Paul Sherman, one of the super-significant entrepreneurs featured in

the amazing, fantastic new book, Be Like Amazon: Even a Lemonade Stand Can Do it.
(Maybe I went a little over-the-top there promoting the new book. But I work for the wizard, remember?)

For the past 4 years, Paul has been using – with great success – one of the earliest prototypes of the new studio from Sunpop Studios. Normal video is 30 frames per second. This image is one of those 30 frames accidentally captured while Paul was cleaning his glasses prior to shooting a TV ad for his incredibly successful stores in Peoria, Illinois. (This image has not been Photoshopped, I promise.) This beady-eyed bad boy is selling more home appliances in his town than Best Buy, Home Depot, Lowe’s and Sears combined. That’s right. You can read all about it in chapter 10. (Hey, you guys realize that Sunpop is owned by Roy and Pennie’s sons, right? – Indy)

Random Quote:

“My, but it's nice an' cold this mornin'! The thermometer's done fell up to zero! Mrs. Wiggs made the statement as cheerfully as if her elbows were not sticking out through the boy's coat that she wore, or her teeth chattering in her head like a pair of castanets. But, then, Mrs. Wiggs was a philosopher, and the sum and substance of her philosophy lay in keeping the dust off her rose-colored spectacles. When Mr. Wiggs traveled to eternity by the alcohol route, she buried his faults with him, and for want of better virtues to extol she always laid stress on the fine hand he wrote…. – from Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch, not a real cabbage patch, but a queer neighborhood, where ramshackle cottages played hop-scotch over the railroad tracks.”
