Here are a few links that would supplement our conference call:

The first is the video we mentioned from Dove Soap’s Campaign for Real Beauty – it’s called Evolution - http://www.dove.us/#/features/videos/default.aspx[cp-documentid=7049579]/ 

Here is our blog article about finding the Saturday Night Live video - http://goldencompass.com/blog/when-you-really-need-a-4-letter-word-in-politics/
 
And here is the Eventvue.com article – (we wish we could have this for NSA conventions) - http://goldencompass.com/blog/7-reasons-why-you-should-cancel-conventions-that-dont-use-eventvue/
 
The main link, though, is our ReadyTalk.com reenactment of the call with slides. It’s narrated, so turn on the volume up on your computer. The presidents will have to register to play it. Click on the link below:
