“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes “Awww!” -Jack Kerouac,
You have to be crazy to want to “double your double,” to double the speed at which you double the size of your company. Thank God for the Mad Ones of 2010.
As we were doing our review of the year and planning for the new year, a theme revealed itself- We love the Mad Ones. The clients and projects that drove our greatest passions and growth were from the small universe of people who fit Jack Kerouac’s description….
Matty, Ally-Boy, Rob Daddy, Mama Bear, Kohai, Sonny-D-Madcap, Klaus, Backstreet Boys, Joe-Mack-Baby, Markie-Mark, the Dick, Shelly-Hell, Wild Bill, Winnie-lou…and many un-nicknamed, but just as mad people…
This last year, this group of crazies sold more, yelled louder, laughed harder, fought stronger… They got bigger and they made us better.
Our favorite work, our best work, happened with the Mad Ones. Bloody mad, every single one of them. So, we at Hunt Big Sales will open a bottle and raise a glass to the great Mad Ones of 2010. We are looking forward to a great 2011 with them and as many Mad Ones as we can find…
