Victor Nord is the most common spelling mistake for my name. Every day I get at least one e-mail with my name misspelled. You may think this is unimportant but in fact this is a quite big issue. If you get an e-mail with your name spelled right you will probably continue reading without reflecting whether the sender spelled your name right or wrong. Your state of mind will continue to be neutral. But if you get an e-mail where your name is spelled wrong or even worse the whole name is wrong your emotions will start to flow. Your state of mind will no longer be neutral and this will affect how you read and respond to the e-mail.
So, how common is this name-misspelling-mistake? Try Google “Warren Buffet” and then “Warren Buffett” (This is correct spelling). You will see that around 25% of the name is misspelled.
Conclusion: If you want your receiver to focus on the importance in a mail remember to spell the name right. If not, the receivers state of mind will affected.
Best regards.

Today Viktor Nord and Christian Josefsson got an article published from “Svenkst Näringsliv” about the jobmarket in Sweden and Norway. Unfortunately this article is written in Swedish.
A couple of weeks ago I got nominated for best young entrepreneur in Sweden (west side). This was really flattering but my expectations was small. I was up against more promosing and much better entrepreneurs such as Eric Martinsson & Therese Albrechtson. Against my expectations I won that nomination and now I’m one of the finalists in the national event in Stockholm. They recorded a video of me. Unfortunately the video is in Swedish but you’re welcome to have a look anyway even though you don’t understand. Just click on the picture below:
Jurys motivation: ” This year’s young entrepreneur in western Sweden has developed a service to help very many people to get work. Thousands of people have been recruited to Norwegian companies already. The contractor proved the first step in an interesting business building. The contractor is focused and has the ambition to take the company forward to the next “Ryan Air – Recruitment”
The winner of this award will be presented at the Entrepreneur Gala in Stockholm the 24th of September 2009. The elite of the Swedish entrepreneurs are there and the event is stunning. If you cast a vote on any of the competitors you have the oppertunity to win free tickets. I would really appreciate that you cast your vote on the most promising entrepreneur and not just on me if you personally know me. Honestly I think I don’t have a chance against the other competitors. What do you think?
Up against the Swedish young elite:
My competitors Marcus, Mattias and Ida are all three very successful entrepreneurs and they all deserve to win this competition. Unfortunately I don’t know them personally yet, but I hope I will meet them in Stockholm the 24th of September when the winner is named.
Sverige-Norge.se has been successfull thanks to this amazing person Christian Josefsson. He has been involved since the beginning and is one of the owners. I gladely thank Christian for his incredible job of building up our company from almost nothing to a successfull company. He is not just one of the best art-directors on the market but an true enrepreneur and a big inspiration to work with. I think you all have met a person in your life that has the magic touch and succeed with everything? That’s Christian!
