The exact quote from a client this week was "Now what, nothing seems right".</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Once again, whether you are deploying a new piece of software, making a business case to your executives or presenting the latest and greatest version of your software, please remember the art of repetition and simplicity.
