Many associates and their guests are told of some "glowing article" that was supposedly written by USA Today wherein some "expert" claims that "this sounds like healthcare before it became a million dollar business".
I looked high and low for said article because I still do believe that "documentation beats conversation". If anyone's found that article, please make it known in this forum where a person could locate it on the USA Today website. NOTE: It's NOT there!
What I DID find was not an article "written by USA Today staff", but an advertisement (a FULL PAGE ad, at that) taken out in this paper by top associates in PPL in an effort to "corner the market" — given the paper's credibility and its reader base. While we were told to avoid such shortcuts, it was never stated why. It wasn't until I found this info (and the list of the associates who's names were listed in the ad) online that I could see why. But they promoted this as an article, not an AD.
Btw, this attempt to "corner the market" failed... Miserably... By their OWN admission. That's why they're still grinding today!
