Although I'm a marketing student, but I used to think that Relationship Marketing is something that really hard to achieve while doing business. However, UnMarketing has blowed my mind not because what Scott Stratten and Alison Kramer wrote in their books. It is because what they did made people like me feel special. Indeed, Scott Stratten and Alison Kramer did make my heart skip a beat. It is an unique experience in my entire life until now.

Here is the story of "The Santa did come to the town".

Before Christmas, I posted a single status telling that all I need is the book Unselling, and I didn't expect that will come true.

Dear #Santa. This is all I wish for this #Christmas. #UnSelling. Hopefully :P

Nothing happened, and I almost forgot about it until one day. An Instagram user @unmarketing made a comment ask me if I received the Christmas gift yet or not, then told that "Go to the contact form at unMarketing.com and send your address. We'll get you a copy".

Because it is no harm, so I did and hope that the miracle will come (still don't believe that gonna happen). 

Until today, Jan 15, 2015. I got a package from Amazon.

I did not remember what I ordered from Amazon, but It has my name on it. so I opened it.

OMG, It's Scott Stratten! I don't know that you put the book Business Awesome in the front on purpose or not, but it's really AWESOMEEEEE.

My heart did skip a beat! I wished only one book - the UnSelling. Now got 4 of your books, and it's beyond my imagination. You guys always know how to Surprise and Delight Your Customers. I have to admit that.

It is a wonder late Christmas gift ever. Thank Scott Stratten and Alison Kramer so much. You already got my loyalty!

I always want to find a way to present a Powerpoint or Prezi from my iPhone without paying anything. Like, how to present Prezi from iPhone for free. 

Option 1: if you only need to present remotely, just use a remote control.

Option 2: don't have remote control, don't worry. You can always turn a wireless mouse to control the presentation from far away. The problem is it will be fine if you control a Powerpoint remotely with a wireless mouse.

However, you can only control a Prezi presentation with a left or right arrow on your keyboard. So, the solution is to add left and right function to your mouse. You can do that by using this special software called X-Mouse Control. By using this app, you can always turn your middle wheel on your mouse to left and right, or left click and right click to left and right arrow - just for short time, so you can control your Prezi remotely. 

Option 3: don't want to use a remote mouse? Fine! Let's use your iPhone or a smart device to a remote control. Kool?

What you need?

- Computer (which will connect to projector) and iPhone with Internet. 

- Teamviewer

Get it? Use your iPhone to control your computer by using Teamviewer! From the moment you connect to the computer with your phone. You can control anything. You can start to present a Powerpoint presentation or a Prezi presentation with your iPhone. However, be careful with the internet connection.

I write this post because I want to show you how to backup your Gmail emails to your computer. It can also help to transfer all of Gmail emails to another Gmail account.

Step 1: download Gmail Backup program from Google Code

Step 2: Install the Gmail Backup program to your computer and run it

Step 3: fill your email account and password then press backup button

After that, just wait until it finishes. When you want to restore your emails, fill your account username and password then press restore button.

Trouble shooting: If you receive those alerts such as:  "Error: IMAP: [ALERT] Please log in via your web browser: http://support.google.com/mail/accounts/bin/answer.py?answer=78754 (Failure)", you should try the following methods:

+ try to login via your web browser then login to your Gmail backup again
+ go to less secure apps and enable this function, so your Gmail backup app can connect to your account

Have fun :)
