$2500 - it didn't entice the elitists - they are going elsewhere Pundits as entertainers - won't work, pundits already enter as religious, one at a time for temples. NLP - a bust - those ideas are coming up by other more conventional avenues. Mall stores for TM products - it wasn't proof of a marketing concept. They know it works (Aveda(?), other spas), it was for TM products.
