First I want to say that the story your about to read is true and several "fun" things were left out. This young man, Mark Anthony, has more tools to go far in life then most people I have met and that includes some very high profile success stories! After reading the first 2 paragraphs here, click on the link below to read the whole article. Then surf his blog and let me know when you get back from Vegas!
On my recent trip back to Minnesota, I made a special point of visiting an old friend. Tony Geer. If you ever want to learn anything about retail marketing, guerrilla style, spend a few minutes with Tony and you will have an MBA level degree in retail marketing.
I first met Tony while managing a kiosk next to his at Mall of America in Minnesota. The first thing that attracted me to him was his ability to call a spade a spade. He could rip an employee for bad business practices one minute, and spin around the next minute and woo a passerby into stopping to look, than buy whatever he was selling.
Turning screaming and unruly kids into passive, obedient children is another trait he has. To him, that was the key....
