		<description>Hi Jim,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think another way to look at it is that Status Quo is a creature of the dark, works in the dark, keeps prospects in the dark.  Our role as sales professionals is to illuminate the situation for the buyer, enlighten, and empower them for the potential hidden by the dark of the Status Quo.  Once they see the opportunity they will make changes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tibor</description>
