How do you promote nectar?

In order to promote Nectar properly, you must first collate all the positive effects Nectar has provided to the company, even if you have to 'fertilize some fields of information'. Next, by buttonholing the members of the board individually and quietly, you may engender some 'positive buzz' regarding Nectar. Wait for the buzz to blossom on its own. It is imperative to the successful promotion of Nectar that you subtly verify the acceptance of the generated buzz by the board members. Then you may openly and confidently promote Nectar. Good luck with your Nectar promotion efforts!
