Debilitating Demo Diseases – Rampaging Pronouns

 

Symptoms:      

 

Demo begins by introducing Mike the Manager, Eunice the End-User, Veronica the VP, Andrew in Accounting, Sally the Sales Director, and Ike from IT. Presenter immediately loses track of which pronoun to use: I, you, he, she, them, they, um, hmmm. Audience immediately loses patience. Sales rep loses deal, misses quota, and suffers Terminus Abruptus.

 

Examples:        

 

“Next, I’ll show you how Eunice enters the account information, which you can use to calculate the total so she can add the new lines which I need for the next section.”

            

Cure:   

 

Apply restraints; purge excess pronouns (Pro-No^™ and Pronoun-Be-Gone^® are two products often recommended and can be purchased over the counter). Replace with “you” exclusively.
