The Value of a Demo

by alec on September 13, 2005

Wendy Kennedy’s Show and Tell is so true.  Good demonstrations are invaluable.  Not wizzy powerpoint slides to show how the product works, nor staged videos of users using the product. Get in front of your audience and show them how you use the product. 

Alec Saunders is the Vice President of Developer Relations for BlackBerry make Research in Motion. This is his personal blog, with his personal viewpoints. Prior to this Alec was the CEO and co-founder of Calliflower — the easiest way to hold a meeting, online, on a conference call, or on the go. A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.
