Real working thought:
It’s important to have a realistic scope in regard to what a SharePoint project will encompass and output. I've been a member of a few projects where the scope was not realistic and on one occasion needed new technology to be built until the proper outcome could be met. This therefore led to potential cost overruns in the budget.
The following are six key aspects about SharePoint that are good:
1. End to end - good platform for distributing content and processes
2. Scale and agility - the platform is updated often and therefore provides a faster deployment strategy as part of it's ecosystem
3. Delivering trust - the system provides a core permission model
4. High availability - the system is made to scale and provides to the enterprise this valuable concept
5. Too integrated to fail - the system provides many out of the box features and functionality as well as allows for customizations
6. Hybrid and multi cloud - the system can be set-up half on-premise and half in the cloud therefore allowing for scalable as needed

The following are three ways to get the SharePoint message out:
1. One has to decide whom to mail or e-mail the SharePoint information to?
2. One has to decide what the text of the SharePoint mailing/emailing will entail?
3. One has to decide the best time to send the SharePoint mail/email?
