Imagine you are competing for a large RFP at a significant prospect and you save your copies of the proposal drafts on a memory stick, you are traveling to deliver the proposal in the morning so you put the memory stick in your pocket to take home, then you meet your family for dinner. You expect to win the deal, life is good.

You wake up the next morning and discover you cannot find the memory stick, it must have fallen out at the restaurant. Now what do you do? Winning this client is critical.
