Men Overheard 

Often found in pages in women's magazines. These pages are filled with quotes or small conversations said by men to other men, partners or simply friends. The main purpose is to entertain the reader as it shows men in an unintelligent light. The readers 'overhear' the speech then send it in. The magazine then judges if it is worthy of print.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
