S.M.A.S.H.I.T

If you ever find yourself in a workshop in which a consultant presents a proprietary marketing methodology using some wanky sounding acronym like S.M.A.S.H.I.T, G.E.N.E.R.8 or D.E.E.M.A.N.D…

Hereโ€™s how you need to respond:

Grab the nearest sharpie and sticky note.

(Youโ€™re in a workshop, there should be plenty lying around.)

Use the sharpie to write B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T. on the sticky note in the largest letters possible.

Approach the consultant calmly and confidently.

Thenโ€ฆ

(With just enough force to bruise their ego, not put them on their ass.)

Slap the sticky note smack bang in the middle of the consultantโ€™s forehead.

Turn, and leave the room with a smile on your face.

Safe in the knowledge your actions have made the world a better place.
