Previously, they had Shashank as a team member and his company as a partner, but recently all references to Simpliflying have been removed. Only remnant is one presentation that Robert gave at a conference as a “Simpliflying Associate” <br /><br />Robert Cook and his team are still listed on the Simpliflying.com bios. Shashank proabably is leaving them up there to establish is own credibility. Maybe somebody should tell Robert?<br /><br />I guess Robert probably only realized later that Simpliflying was nothing more than a thin veneer of fancy presentations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189040857725534268.post-58028933322397460632011-06-15T05:09:54.220-07:002011-06-15T05:09:54.220-07:00Note that here he admits that his only "airli...Note that here he admits that his only "airline branding" experience was to write a white paper:<br /><br />http://bit.ly/fV1AvF<br /><br />But here is where he is caught SimplyLying - his company was only registered in October, 2009, two months AFTER it supposedly broke even http://bit.ly/jwUgW4<br /><br />"Nigam quit his job in Boston in Dec 2008 returned to Singapore to incorporate and work on Simplifying full-time. “I had $20,000 in savings from my one and a half years working at Endeca. I told myself I had to break even before the money ran out or I’d have to return to the job pool.”<br /><br />Luckily for him, the company broke even in nine months and even better, it did so using less than $10,000."<br /><br />Of course, no financial statements have ever been filed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189040857725534268.post-25748139905958609912011-06-13T08:08:56.413-07:002011-06-13T08:08:56.413-07:00Its more like what Fish got on a lucky day.
Here ...Its more like what Fish got on a lucky day.<br /><br />Here is one he did with another blogger where they were paid - "The World's First Tweetup on an Aircraft"<br /><br />http://www.penn-olson.com/2010/02/03/breaking-the-worlds-first-tweetup-on-an-aircraft/<br /><br />Shanshank's partner was realistic about it:<br /><br />http://www.penn-olson.com/2011/05/26/journey-as-an-entrepreneur/<br /><br />"Besides blogging, we used to manage marketing campaigns for brands. At slide 12, the picture shows one of the campaigns we did for Singapore Airshow in 2010. The plane wasn’t actually flying but it was still considered to be the world’s first tweetup on a plane. Our marketing gimmick received coverage from various media. Money was okay but unfortunately, we didn’t like to deal with marketing and public relation stuff. There are just too many bullshit to deal with."<br /><br />Obviously the client relationship was not all that smooth. Sounds like something from "a global leader in brand strategy" or two blogger's Tweeting?<br /><br />Anyway, since the aircraft was a Bombardier and the airline livery was Air Baltic - bingo - two clients!

Simpliflying is not a real company, he's just a blogger like Fish that manages to convince a company every now and them to do some tweets for them. He probably kept Fish on despite all the evidence because Fish has a lot of followers and was more willing than most to write for free to "build his brand".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189040857725534268.post-86448495338944801562011-06-08T13:04:47.366-07:002011-06-08T13:04:47.366-07:00@1250 If that's the case the little respect I ...@1250 If that's the case the little respect I had for Shashank has blown out the window..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189040857725534268.post-85196141286396322112011-06-08T13:03:35.865-07:002011-06-08T13:03:35.865-07:00Shashank knew what Steve had done.
