		<description>Melanie,

As an account executive in the medical and advertising arena, I know first hand the importance of looking the part and leaving a good impression.  I have often had to train with up-and-coming reps who did not understand the value of presentation.  I can think of one particular instance where I was making a large presentation to a hospital and had to bring a junior rep to deliver a portion of the message.  While this guy was a good looking fellow, we went into the meeting with his sleeves rolled up, no jacket, and a loose tie.  That is fine for working in your own office but when you are meeting people, especially for the first time, it does not convey professionalism.

In case you think I might be being a bit up tight, after the presentation was over, the chief of internal medicine pulled me aside and said "Mark, seriously, what's with that associate of yours?  He looks like he just rolled out of bed".  This is an issue because it impacted MY image, not just his.  You need to stay conscious of the physical world because your advertising and marketing are not the only things that speak about your business - the way you present yourself does also.</description>

		<description>Thanks PBCDanielle. 

It can be so easy to forget the simple things - especially when we are all trying to compete, save money and bring in sales quickly.

		<description>I think this is a great article. I believe that now-a-days business is all about “promoting yourself” and projecting the best image. You want to put your best foot forward – look professional, speak professional – and say the right things. I think “promoting yourself” also ties in with branding and design – you want to not only project the best image of yourself but also your company. 

Again - great article!</description>
