The reaction of mainstream analysts to the events of last spring and summer was as amusing as it was predictable. As soon as commodity and metals prices weakened, they were out in droves, tut tutting and warning the great unwashed that we had seen the top of the cycle. They patiently explained to those too dim to understand their market insights (which included us, I suppose) that the "abnormal" commodity markets were coming to an end and the "bubble" had burst.
Pay Per Play - Ppp Advertising - An Internet Gold Mine Or Fools Gold?
Recently, I received an offer for Pay Per Play advertising. If you haven't heard of it, in a nutshell it is a 5 second audio commercial that will play each time a visitor hits your site. You will get paid for every visitor to your website, 100% conversion with nothing to do and nothing to click. To me, this concept is huge. TV and Radio have been doing this to us for years, whether or not we want to hear an advertisement, it is presented to us. The big corporate giants have been branding themselves this way on TV and radio for a millennium. Sure you can change the channel to avoid an advertisement, but; you have already heard the sponsors message. I get up and leave the room when the commercial stretch comes on during a program I'm watching...

Digging for Gold
When I was a young boy in Santa Cruz, California I used to help my grandfather in the fields by his home. This was not his land but back in those days it was not unusual to barter with the neighbors to work it for them so he could grow the vegetables that he loved. He would then share them with the neighbor for payment. He grew corn, beans, peas, zucchini, cucumbers and garlic. And nobody could grow bigger dahlias than my Grandfather.

Mexican Law Firm Eliminates Billing Conflicts of Interest: 'I've Struck Gold With May Cruz Consultores' Says Imperial
Chemical Indu
QUERETARO, Mexico (Business Wire EON) December 11, 2007 -- Now, a prominent Mexican law firm has announced it has discarded hourly billing in favor of alternate billing methods that better meet the needs of their clients. May, Cruz Consultores, a boutique international corporate, real estate and environmental firm catering to multinational clients, has virtually eliminated the concept of billing clients for time worked.
"We will use hourly billing only in very special circumstances in which it really benefits the client, or when the client insists," said managing partner Robert R. May. "But we will first offer clients other options."
Struck Gold With May Cruz
"I feel like I've struck gold with May Cruz," said Steven M. Bradford, vice president and regional general counsel for the Americas for British chemical conglomerate Imperial Chemical Industries PLC (ICI). "Over the years we have used a variety of counsel in Mexico -- large and small law firms. I struggled to find a firm with whom I had full confidence."
"May Cruz provides excellent value and expert targeted legal service," Bradford said. "Their new billing system simply shows me once again that their primary concern is for the wellbeing of the client."
"For some time we have had a fixed retainer with the firm," continued Bradford, "but recently we have had some extraordinary M&A and joint venture work that would normally have been charged separately. We were quite pleased when they made us a rather innovative proposal to enable those more complicated and time-consuming matters to be included in our standard retainer at no additional cost to us."
According to May, the ICI flurry in 2007 of complex legal work on a variety of matters, including the more than EUR 11 billion (US$16.7 billion) sale of the company to Akzo Nobel, demonstrated to the firm's partners that they could offer alternatives to hourly billing for virtually all matters while preserving its high-quality service. "The increased activity with ICI this year gave us the opportunity to be creative and give the client an attractive alternative that ensured the work was properly handled without undue expense," May said.
"May Cruz Consultores provides excellent value and expert targeted legal service" -- Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) Regional General Counsel.
"We know that May Cruz is concerned about all of our needs and long-term interests, including managing the costs of our legal services, and that's what ICI looks for in its service providers," said Bradford. "We want experience and excellent service at a reasonable price. By using alternatives to hourly billing, we get the level of service we need and don't have to worry about unpleasant surprises when the bill comes."
According to May, the elimination of hourly billing came as the result of the firm's desire to innovate and provide added value to its services. "We have never gotten a complaint about our billing, but we believe the future of legal services will be based on fair-value billing instead of charging for time," said May. "Our firm prides itself on its leadership in providing value for our clients, and implementing a fairer billing system is just part of that continuing effort."
