The Deaver Brown and Cross River case is legendary in MBA programs as the best in Entrepreneurial classes because it provides a hard core sales situation in which Brown has 10 minutes to sell Kmart, the Walmart of its day, his baby stroller or not. Class room discussions tend to take on a staff point of view relating to quality of presentation, rapport with the buyer, points made, and more. They do not focus on the sole purpose of the meeting: To get the order. This evolution in classroom thinking has a profound positive and memorable impact on students as it should with you, except our listeners get the teaching note too.
