RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IS A BUSINESS

That's why Trump does so well and makes his points and works his milestones. He knows how to address the subject matter and being a billionaire, can afford and demand access to some of the best think tanks out there when he has to. It's all a write-off too. How can you beat that? Check some of his strategies out

HE WRITES A BOOK

Business people stay ahead of the learning curve and the real pros stay way in front. How many other candidates running have a book out? Right there, he advantaged himself and disadvantaged them all in one master stroke. Ask yourself this: Did he write it or have it written?  Does it matter?

TAX PLAN FILED

He manages to submit what everyone has to do sooner or later both verbally and in writing which is to explain what they would do and how they would do it. Here is again out there and Jeb Bush got out there too but again, it makes those other candidates look like they are asleep...like it or not. Got plan?

TELLING IT LIKE IT IS

Look...he takes what is broken, needs to be fixed, what people are complaining about and then speaks about it. No wonder he gets instant accolades because statistics will tell you as well as polls what people are complaining about the most. Want votes? If 60% of the voting public is against anything, bring it up!

KEEPS THE SPOTLIGHT

Good or bad, happy or sad, if the headlines have your name in them, well an age old proven method is at work we now call HYPNOSIS. Ex Governor Schwarzenegger used this ploy when running for Governor of California. His movies ran for 9 months prior to election. Day in, day out....over and over

VOTERS MAN THE VOTING BOOTHS

Hmmm, says the voting public while scratching their heads inside the booth. I wonder who I should vote for. Oh, there is a familiar name. BOX GETS CHECKED. Other candidates have no movies to play. Interesting to note if they did, we would just have the Academy awards deciding who would be president....yes?  LOL

CUSTOMER SERVICE DRIVEN

Using business tactics to garner results is probably the best way to go about running a business unless you have a successful business and can do what you want. In business, customer service determines outcomes whether they are real or imagined. In politics, there is a different dynamic at work

STATISTICS PREVAIL

You see they break down certain categories and then project percentages using the LIKE, DISLIKE AND NOT SURE to categorize and assess public opinions. There is always going to be people who love you and who hate you. The trick is to play with the love more and mitigate the hate less. Its tough to do

THE BAR

We talk about about first impression, posture, being a good listener, manners, courtesy, and putting our best foots forward at all times. CEO's, Presidents, Prime Ministers, job applicants and anyone entering the public arenas is playing by established rules and procedures. Fail this, you lose automatically. Remember, it is all staged. Everything is coached, rehearsed and perfected when you get to hear it

PULLING OUT ALL THE STOPS

Whoever does make it to the run-offs, then, we, the public are going to be entertained the likes of which you only get to see on sports play-offs and when the Olympics are held. People going all out, anything goes, this is it and no second chances including the smear portion and accusation stages too

NO EXCUSES

On this election, whoever gets the top spot and takes home the trophy of being the President of the United States better have sleeves rolled up and produce. Why? There is unrest all over the United States with the way things are being handled. Change is not a word, not a request but is mandatory at this point. Congress, get it together already. What dysfunction and how about a taste of your own medicine

THE PEOPLE WANT

Fail to give the people what they want, need, and are willing to demonstrate for and we will enter a term of turmoil and compound problems the likes of which we will all regret making our global enemies rejoice and our supporters pause. People cannot keep spending four or eight year terms and get nothing for it

   I never  thought of campaigns as business but you make some excellent points. And Trump is running his campaign like a successful business.

You  are right...he is running it like a business and it is political suicide.  People like him because says it like it is, but it is suicide.

Hi Richie.  He is a marketing genius.  His business right now is marketing himself as the next President.  Business as usual for Trump.

Trump has certainly made this an interesting process. He is an entertaining guy and yes, he knows business quite well.  Thanks for the thoughtful post - per usual. D
