<p>Wow!! What a&nbsp;way for&nbsp;<a id="aptureLink_vKg3sc5ZiB" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South%20Africa%20national%20football%20team">Bafana Bafana</a> to&nbsp;go out last week &#8230; By&nbsp;delivering a&nbsp;fantastic “WOW!” performance, our soccer team managed to&nbsp;win the&nbsp;hearts and&nbsp;minds of&nbsp;a&nbsp;country.  This is even more impressive when you think how many people even bothered to&nbsp;watch their previous games.  Ask any South African now and&nbsp;I’m pretty sure that they’ll say they’ll now continue to&nbsp;support Bafana!</p>
<p>That’s what delivering a&nbsp;“WOW!” can do &#8230;</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>3 Great Things We Can Learn From South Africa’s Last Game In&nbsp;The&nbsp;2010 World Cup</strong></span></span></h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>United We Stand</strong> – by&nbsp;gathering an&nbsp;entire country and&nbsp;getting them to&nbsp;focus on&nbsp;one goal, you can make the&nbsp;improbable possible. Sure, we didn’t make it through, but can you imagine what could have happened if South Africans had started doing this several years ago? </li>
<li><strong>You Have To&nbsp;Find Your Flow</strong> – when the&nbsp;coach put the&nbsp;right players in&nbsp;the&nbsp;right place, we got more opportunities to&nbsp;score!  How often do you put the&nbsp;wrong players in&nbsp;the&nbsp;right place, or&nbsp;the&nbsp;right players in&nbsp;the&nbsp;wrong place? </li>
<li><strong>You Miss 100% Of&nbsp;the&nbsp;Shots You Don’t Take</strong> – finally we saw the&nbsp;strikers taking opportunities on&nbsp;goal, finding every opportunity to&nbsp;shoot towards goal.  We had 21 shots on&nbsp;goal, compared to&nbsp;France’s 10.  Twice the&nbsp;shots, twice the&nbsp;goals – <nobr>co-incidence</nobr>?</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>But while the&nbsp;World Cup as&nbsp;a&nbsp;sporting event is starting to&nbsp;draw to&nbsp;a&nbsp;close, the&nbsp;World Cup </strong><a id="aptureLink_T8rfQhFg6N" href="http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?click_id=4&amp;art_id=vn20100528125916710C138671&amp;set_id=">‘gees’</a><strong> (spirit) now needs to&nbsp;be converted into productive energy – so that you and&nbsp;your staff can use this energy to&nbsp;create a&nbsp;renewed commitment to&nbsp;making your business better!</strong></p>
<p>Let’s face it:</p>
<p>•    South Africa is hosting a&nbsp;<nobr>super-successful</nobr> tournament – <em>but most local businesses bared the&nbsp;brunt of&nbsp;decreased productivity</em>;</p>
<p>•    Businesses must now try to&nbsp;harness the&nbsp;energy and&nbsp;excitement that everyone experienced <em>and&nbsp;focus it into growing the&nbsp;business, increasing profits and&nbsp;decreasing customer dissatisfaction</em>;</p>
<p>•    Your staff need to&nbsp;use this inspiration to&nbsp;achieve success <em>without losing even more productive time and&nbsp;without spending hundreds and&nbsp;thousands of&nbsp;Rands on&nbsp;training</em>;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>What would your company do differently if your staff were inspired by&nbsp;a&nbsp;short (but highly effective) presentation that got everyone together to&nbsp;commit to&nbsp;delivering the&nbsp;“WOW!” service that your customers deserve?</strong></span></p>
<p>In&nbsp;the&nbsp;spirit of&nbsp;maintaining this amazing energy from the&nbsp;World Cup, <strong>I’m offering you a&nbsp;versatile and&nbsp;customizable presentation that is JAM PACKED with advice and&nbsp;tips that is certain to&nbsp;be remembered by&nbsp;you and&nbsp;your colleagues for&nbsp;a&nbsp;long, long time.  You’ll learn practical lessons and&nbsp;sage advice that everyone will be able to&nbsp;implement almost immediately.</strong></p>

<blockquote><p><span style="color: #000080;"><strong><em>“A&nbsp;huge ‘Thank You’ to&nbsp;Marcel &amp; the&nbsp;team.  I’ve received so many emails to&nbsp;say “Thanks” for&nbsp;such an&nbsp;amazing event &amp; all made possible by&nbsp;you!” – Inger Truter, BAT</em></strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;"><em>“Marcel’s  is worth every penny! His programme had our staff in&nbsp;awe, in&nbsp;fits of&nbsp;laughter and&nbsp;inspired them to&nbsp;work as&nbsp;one team &#8230; Thank you so much!” – Annemarie Heydenrych</em></span><br />
 </strong> <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong> </strong></span></p>
</blockquote>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>“Hang on&nbsp;a&nbsp;second Marcel, aren’t you still doing magic for&nbsp;events?”</strong></span></span></h2>
<p>Of&nbsp;course! I&nbsp;still love performing and&nbsp;will always be available for&nbsp;<a href="http://www.corporatemagician.co.za/section-corporate-event-services/section-performance-options/integrated-marketing-magic">product launches, roadshows,</a> <a href="http://www.corporatemagician.co.za/section-corporate-event-services/section-performance-options/corporate-entertainment"><nobr>year-end</nobr> functions and&nbsp;formal dinners</a>.<strong> That’s not important; what’s important here is that I&nbsp;can use my&nbsp;expertise as&nbsp;a&nbsp;dynamic and&nbsp;fun presenter to&nbsp;deliver a&nbsp;compelling message to&nbsp;any audience.<br />
 </strong><br />
 It’s what I&nbsp;call the&nbsp;3Cs: “Create the&nbsp;connection, Convey the&nbsp;compelling message, and&nbsp;Collect the&nbsp;results”. Remember this is what ‘Infotainment’ is all about – delivering a&nbsp;compelling and&nbsp;persuasive message using the&nbsp;art of&nbsp;entertainment.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">“Ok Marcel, it sounds good – but we simply don’t have the&nbsp;time!”</span></strong></span></h2>
<p>Right, that’s why I’ve kept this talk to&nbsp;a&nbsp;short 45-minutes!  Remember: just because training programmes are several days long doesn’t make them more important. Sometimes it’s the&nbsp;simplest of&nbsp;messages that make all the&nbsp;difference &#8230; don’t you agree?</p>
<p>The&nbsp;fact is, if you can’t get your staff together for&nbsp;a&nbsp;short but valuable session then you either do not have enough clients, or&nbsp;you have more than enough clients to&nbsp;keep you busy.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">“We’re interested! What next?”</span></strong></span></h2>
<p>Fantastic!</p>
