Marshall's Syndrome

Applies to anything that you are under the impression that you are absolutely infatuated with it, until you remove it from its surroundings, and realize that it was only fabulous in comparison with the absolute crap it was surrounded by.

Called the Marshall's Syndrome due to the fact that this effect most commonly takes place when one is shopping at Marshall's or a Marshall's like store such as T.J. Maxx. One item of clothing looks adorable, untli you bring it home only to realize it is hideous when compared to your other clothes.

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."
