Here’s an interesting post by Mike Damphousse of Green Leads that I found through Funnelholic (thanks Craig) on how lead nurturing impacts the effectiveness of calling campaigns designed to secure qualified sales appointments.

Last month there was much made about social media’s impact on the coverage of protests in Iran. At the 140 Conference. Robert Scoble moderated a panel of journalists and producers that discussed the impact of Twitter on mainstream news media, specifically using the Iran election to illustrate the power of essentially the people. Let freedom ring.

A business associate sent me an HBP newsletter on business transformation, a subject near and dear to my heart. Since it was HBP, I expected a positive upbeat view of all the upsides companies can enjoy thanks to the ever present opportunity for business transformation. Boy, was I ever surprised! Here's the gist of the article's message.

I met a new client a couple of weeks ago.    We spent time over dinner discussing his company and their strategy for diversification and expansion. The guy is sharp, and the opportunity he unearthed is strong.  He hired me to help him communicate that strategy to his board and fellow executives.  He knew it inside and out. 

It's time for the monthly ClickInsights' Expert Interview Series  - focusing on sharing tips ' n tricks for B2B marketers. This month's focus is on leveraging social media, certainly a timely and much discussed topic! Read the post by B2B marketers including Ardath Albee, Brian Carroll, Patsi Krakoff, M.

Businesses large and small are jumping into a social media presence these days. It’s a great opportunity for real communication with your audience.    If you walk the walk. But what happens when the talk isn’t the walk?    When a customer pushes past the social persona. Do you walk the walk - or do you crash and burn? Still.

I was checking out a potential client's website. found everything I ever wanted to know about the company.    About their unmatched experience and revolutionary products, their industry leading service and kicktail integration capability.  It was a chest thumping extravaganza! couldn't find a customer story anywhere. 

I listened to a new client's 'pitch' yesterday. Turns out they have a great story. There are just a few glitches. One in particular is pretty common - and a potential killer. The client is so brilliant they lose everyone in the process of telling their story. They have intellectual property that truly is game changing. Not intentionally.

  "Anyone who says there's a one-size-fits-all approach to strategy and positioning simply doesn't get it. Great positioning is as unique as the specific situation. Strategic positioning is as much an art as it is a science. And each and every situation offers a blank canvas."

Remember your Mom's response to that justification? If your folks were like mine, it probably went something along the lines of "So does that mean you'd jump off a cliff just because the other guy did?" " Business is no different - or at least it shouldn't be. Market leadership is not about being just like everyone else.

Picture this. big company has one last chance to rise from a serious downturn. But the company has lots going for it. An unbelievably loyal customer and market following, A game changing innovation, A significant demand for exactly that innovation, A bit of money to back it. watched customer after customer 'light up' as we told our story.

I just spent some time with one of my clients. The goal was to identify the best target market profiles for a new product they are launching in the fall. The team argued in detail about the quantitative market data from a leading industry analyst. Which was the biggest opportunity?    I finally had to jump in and rain on their parade.

We’re always hearing that marketing and sales should be better aligned (whatever that means), but I see little practical advice about how to do that beyond the usual change management stuff. Our research shows that we may have found something: account planning. For a company’s most important (i.e., Marketers could help with that problem.

Right now, it seems that the gap between sales and marketing is mostly papered over with technology. For example, the trend towards creating a closed-loop lead generation and nurturing process between marketing and sales is a positive step, but it seems like a bridge across the chasm rather than a true route to collaboration. Sharing what works.

I’ve done enough presentations about web 2.0 to see that the sessions tend to fall into one of two categories: revival meeting or therapy session. This week, I experienced both. Most of my web 2.0 has any value for marketing. present the usual stats showing web 2.0 But it doesn’t sink in. By the end, everyone is frustrated, including me.

I had a great conversation recently with two of ITSMA’s brand gurus, Geoff Dodds and Julie Schwartz. We put ourselves in a hypothetical situation that some of you may have faced for real: when something bad happens that involves your company–think Tylenol poisonings, accounting scandals, etc.–what Respond quickly. Be transparent.

I’m continuing the discussion I began in my last post about when a crisis hits a brand. Geoff Dodds, Julie Schwartz and I brainstormed the different responses customers can have to a crisis and the steps you can take to address the problems. Breaking the promise. Association of blame. Collateral impact. auto industry as a whole. Employees.

It’s marketing 101: don’t hold your needs above those of your customers—and don’t defy the expectations that you set with them. So far, so good. But then Apple sent out confirmation emails to its customers listing a UPS tracking number link to track the progress of the shipment. Apple creates great products. The rest? can’t.

To be successful with social media marketing, we are going to have to become social media guinea pigs. We are accustomed to creating programs and campaigns and then standing back and observing them. Social media will demand involvement that is much more personal. Social media is always on. You need to be involved in social media to monitor it.

Time 30:49. There are only a few ways humans show they value something… give their time or give their money.  Another, for argument’s sake, is to lend their name, but that isn’t a good example for this post so I’ll leave it as a side note. Live World is both a technology platform and provider of social media services. Enchiladas, anyone?

We’re all on the receiving end of email marketing messages. The problem is that most of them appear to try and do too much. It often feels like marketers have a list of all the stuff their solutions do and they want to cram it all into one message to make sure they say something that interests you. That kind of content makes my head hurt.

This morning I typed into Google the search term: VoIP (which stands for Voice over Internet Protocol) and I got 64 Million responses. 64 Million!! How archaic is that? Does Google have any idea how long would it take me to go through 64 Million responses? But the best responses according to who?

Toss Out the Company-Centric USP and Bring In the Customer-Centric ‘UBP’ to Underlie Your Content Marketing Strategy. Don’t get me wrong. The unique part is critical.
