The geek holiday that comes after Christmas. It covers the various weeks within January and February that encompass CES (Consumer Electronics Show), Macworld and PMA (a major photography expo). Most every cool new consumer electronic, Apple and photography product is announced during this extended holiday, making it feel like Christmas for Geeks all over again.

For Geeksmas this year I hope Canon finally releases a successor to their 5D camera. That, and maybe Steve Jobs will give us a new ultraportable mac, too!

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
