The Light Bringer

An explanation behind the name may surprise you. Despite the normal associations, Lucifer is the ancient Latin name for the morning appearance of the planet Venus. The original translation is “light bringer” and was often personified in ancient Roman art as a male figure bearing a torch.

Don’t sell the products you have. Sell the problem you solve

There is no secret sauce to successful marketing. But one advice I give is to “find a need and fill it”. Instead of promoting how your product is the; newest, fastest, biggest, etc. Ruthlessly research your target market and address a business need that solves their problem.

Jason Tominson

He is one of the most creative people I’ve ever worked with. Alan’s ideas push the boundaries of how people think things should be done. However, it is the ease at which he gains the support and funding of The Board,  strategic partners and regional EMEA offices that demonstrates the level of respect and trust people have in him that he will produce the result.
