I was about to say...raise your hand if you capped off a $10,000,000.00 business deal over the 9ers-Jags game.

 

Unfortunately, it's not real if it isn't signed.

"JaxUSA, the economic arm of Jax Chamber, came back with six or seven leads, said its president, Jerry Mallot, who declined to name the companies."

 

IF ANYONE HAS WORKED WITH MARKETING PEOPLE IN CORP AMERICA, A LEAD IS PRETTY MUCH NOTHING.  IT'S A WAY TO JUSTIFY THE MAJOR WINING AND DINING ACTIVITIES THAT HAVE BEEN ABSORBED BY THE COMPANY AND/OR TAXPAYERS.

 

MARKETING AT ITS FINEST !!!
