!Que Romantica!

You may have read in previous posts about my friend Timmy Two-Shirts, the corporate VP who will one day be able to buy and sell all I hold dear, and a man who is only able to communicate using Powerpoint presentations. It's how he proposed to his wife. It's how he wishes his daughter happy birthday and how he sends his love on father's day.

With Valentine's Day coming up, I was able to help Timmy with how to best apply his "2/14 branding and messaging strategy" to his "primary target market," whom he also refers to as his wife. I've taken the liberty of reproducing the slide at right, in case any readers of this blog would like to use this same data for any potential Powerpoint presentations for the lover in your life this Valentine's Day.

But ssshhhhhhhhhhhh! Don't tell Timmy's wife. This is supposed to be a surprise

His Points Are Powerful

It's been some time since I've mentioned on this blog my friend Timmy Two-Shirts, the corporate VP whom, I predict, one day will be able to buy and sell me (and all I hold dear) many times over.

Timmy is as quick as a whip when it comes to business, but he's incapable of communicating anything unless it's in the form of a Powerpoint presentation. For example, when he asks his secretary for a cup of coffee in the morning, he uses a Powerpoint slide.

Years ago, when he asked his girlfriend to marry him (she said yes), he used a Powerpoint presentation. When he lets his little girl know how much he loves her on Father's Day, he uses a Powerpoint presentation.

It's amazing what the smartest minds in business can communicate when they really give their Powerpoint presentations real thought.

I bet his wife can't wait for Valentine's Day.

Best Dad in the Whole Wide World


You may have read, in a previous post here at The Cup of Joe, about my friend Timmy Two Shirts, the corporate VP who one day will be able to buy and sell everything I hold dear. Timmy, as you may recall, can only communicate in Powerpoint Presentations, whether he is asking his secretary for a cup of coffee or proposing to his then-girlfriend over a romantical I-talian dinner.

Well, you can add another title for Timmy in addition to his role as a powerful corporate V.P.: "Best Dad in the World."

At right is Timmy's powerpoint message of love to his beautiful daughter, approaching two years of age now, from this past Sunday, Father's day.

Great job, Timmy!

"Timmy Two Shirt's" Marriage
Proposal By Powerpoint


As I mentioned in my last entry, my friend "Timmy Two Shirts," the corporate VP who will one day be able to buy and sell everything I hold dear, prefers to communicate everything in powerpoint presentations. This includes even simple queries from his secretary regarding how he likes his coffee prepared.

I think Timmy may be on to something. He has a beautiful wife and absolutely adorable daughter, and it was all made possible by this powerpoint slide that he shared with his then-girlfriend over a romantical dinner at St. Louis' finest I-talian restaurant.
