The opportunity

Not a media buy.
A strategic investment.

The scene: the private dining room of The French Laundry in Yountville, California's wine country. You, your head of sales, & 8 CEOs of your prime candidates for your next big enterprise sale sit around the table, sipping wine & eating fabulous little dishes. At the head of the table sits Kent Beck, leading a lively conversation about life on the California coast, local wines, and, of course, the problems addressed by your product.
