templationship 

A composition of the words "temporary" and "relationship". It is when two, or more parties agrees that a relationship should only be temporary.

As opposed to most people, who are serial monogamists, people who agree to a templationship are aware about their situation.

It is ideal when you know you're not suited or compatible for long term, but you have intense chemistry and enjoy spending time with each other. Templationships are mostly exclusive in nature, but can also not be. It is defined by the people agreeing to it.
Jane: Have you heard? Sarah and Josh are finally dating!
Laura: Yeah, but Josh wants kids down the line, and Sarah has other plans. I am pretty sure they agreed to a templationship!

templatic 

A commonly used word by complete morons who pose as professionals and think by turning a noun into an adjective and using it before another word they will sound like they know what they are talking about. This is in fact a flimsy defense mechanism these ignorant twats incorporate to argue their case with the professional, who surprisingly does have a clue what they are talking about.
Professional: "Could you show me some examples of creative stationary designs by some of your favourite designers so I can get an idea of the style that you like?"

Complete moron: "I really like these designs: 'web address';

the designs in general but particularly the templatic stationary."

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."
