    Kernl is a services that provides private plugin and theme updates for WordPress. This is best illustrated with an example. Lets say that you have a brand new plugin that you are selling. Since you are selling this plugin, you can't host it via WordPress.org because otherwise people could download it for free.

    Like any good developer, you want your plugin to be integrated with the automatic update functionlity of WordPress. Thats where Kernl comes into play. By simply adding a file to your plugin and shortcode snippet you'll be able to host your updates through Kernl instead of WordPress, therefore giving your users the best possible experience and timely updates.

  • 202 Blair Enns of Win Without Pitching

    Win Without Pitching is a worldwide sales training company for creative entrepreneurs.

    Founder Blair Enns is a 25-year veteran of the business side of the creative professions.

    In 2002, he launched Win Without Pitching. WWP has worked with thousands of creative professionals in numerous countries through direct engagements, seminars, workshops & webcasts.

    http://www.winwithoutpitching.com/about/

     

    Blair is a decades long veteran of advertising and design firms, and has spent thousands of hours learning abut pricing, winning work, and how to strategically influence your odds of winning work for design and development work.

    Much of what Blair preaches flies in the face of conventional tactics used by most creative firms. The idea is to become the obvious choice for a client through positioning, derailing the pitching process, or influencing the buying process. If you cannot do any of these three things, your best advice is to walk away from the pitch, as you are unlikely to win.
