0707 - Summary/Objective
0708 -
070801 - Follow up ref SDS 13 0000, ref SDS 12 0000.
070802 -
070803 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Matt Conover transmitting a copy of a
070804 - letter he received from John Deneen that provides the name and
070805 - contact information.
070806 -
070807 - Matt proposes that we talk to this person about contributing to
070808 - SDS...

070818 - Matt says....
070819 -
070820 -      ...Daniel... is a member of unRev-II apparently, so might already
070821 -      comprehend SDS from your posts, and thereby be more excited to
070822 -      get involved than others to whom you might have to put out more
070823 -      marketing effort. Given the context and implied endorsements of
070824 -      others at unrev-II he should be intrigued.
070825 -
070826 - This person was submitted for Matt to consider in his new consulting
070827 - business, reported on 011010. ref SDS 12 ZY5G
070828 -
070829 - Since SDS is a unique capability and nobody else has been able to
070830 - create anything close to SDS, based on research the past two years, as
070831 - reported on 000425, ref SDS 3 0480, a question arises about what a
070832 - product development person would contribute?
070833 -
070834 -  ..
070835 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 to Morris asking for comment on scope for
070836 - product development in light of SDS unique position in market.
070837 - ref DIT 1 1I9O
070838 -
070839 - Point out.....
070840 -
070841 -     1.  SDS sales depend on there being a big enough emotional issue
070842 -         for people to overlook DOS in order to get the benefits of
070843 -         "intelligence."  That may be wishful thinking, but that is
070844 -         what I am asking about today.  In that context, can we put to
070845 -         work a product development person, as suggested by Matt in his
070846 -         letter below? What would we talk to him about? ref DIT 1 AJ4K
070847 -
070848 -     2.  Matt Conover has begun making useful contributions to SDS
070849 -         marketing and business development, and his sales ideas, per
070850 -         Matt's letter on 011010, ref SDS 12 3X4F, align with Morris'
070851 -         ideas on 951011 for making emotional appeal. ref SDS 1 SV5N
070852 -
070853 -     3.  What should be scope of discussions on product development
070854 -         based on record showing SDS is unique capability? ref DIT 1
070855 -         QV7H
070856 -
070857 -     4.  Since there is no other similar capability, emphases should be
070858 -         on selling and deployment, i.e., figuring out how people can
070859 -         benefit from organizational memory, ref DIT 1 EW7M, while
070860 -         minimizing worry about accountability, fear of looking
070861 -         incompetent from getting help with a Com Manager, and other
070862 -         issues we discussed on 010924. ref SDS 9 XT5F
070863 -
070864 -     5.  Need to crafting an agreement that protects our rights to
070865 -         intellectual property in the design, so as others discover
070866 -         this power, Bill, Larry, Lou, et al, do not figure it all out,
070867 -         or if they do we retain royalty rights, etc.  Based on past
070868 -         experience, it appears, that even if people finally discover
070869 -         the SDS design, it would take many years for others to produce
070870 -         a useful program.  I realize your point that sales do not
070871 -         require usefulness, just a good marketing effort; but that
070872 -         might be tempered, if we can gain an initial base of people
070873 -         who experience SDS and grasp the range of capability required
070874 -         for satisfying their emotional requirements of safety,
070875 -         recognition, prestige, credit, etc. ref DIT 1 XZ8M
