| | | B2B INTERNET MARKETING STRATEGIES MARCH 22, 2011 Stop Crossing the Chasm! Start Growing the Long Tail! A good analogy would be the invasion of Normandy by allied forces in World War II, when the allies crossed a relatively short “chasm” (the English Channel) and focused an utterly massive force entirely on a small series of beaches in Normandy. Crossing the chasm is exactly the wrong strategy for many of the newest and most innovative technology products today, especially many cloud services and SaaS products. Later, products can be marketed to a more lucrative mainstream (“majority”) market. How do you know which strategy is best for your products? Low (Days). | IT'S ALL ABOUT REVENUE MARCH 19, 2013  Props to the Channel: Partners of the Year 2013 Congratulations to these agency partners, who consistently delivered on driving business, satisfying their customers, and participating proactively in co-marketing activities.

CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MATRIX | WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2006 [x+1] Product is Better than Its White Paper
[x+1] ( www.xplusone.com ) offers some pretty intriguing technology for online conversion optimization—that is, it automatically identifies customer segments based on behavior and demographics and determines the most productive offer for each segment. Knowing this, I was pleased to see they had published a paper titled “Five Steps to Achieving Precise Customer Targeting Online.” It would be interesting to see a simple explanation of such a complicated product. But I was disappointed. In fact, this may be the least effective white paper I’ve ever seen. MORE >> -
FIFTH GEAR ANALYTICS | WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2010  Social Media Use by Job Function Stats – Indicates Need to Change.
Also near front-runners on this list included Communications, PR, IT, Sales, Tech Support, Customer Service and those in a Chief Information Officer role. The report noted that CEO scored below Customer Service, which does not surprise me, but I was disappointed to find roles like Administrative Assistant, General Level Employee and Research & Development on the bottom half. I firmly believe that B2B companies can realize tangible value in social media use if properly tracked, regardless of your product or service. Wendy Boyce. The proof is in the numbers. Tweet This!

DIGITAL B2B MARKETING | TUESDAY, AUGUST 14, 2012  CRM Retargeting: The Shiny New Advertising Tactic?
What if banner ads could become as targeted and relevant as emails? Rather than targeting an audience based on various characteristics, CRM retargeting allows you to target segments of your CRM database with online ads. How It Works You have seen retargeting ads, banners that promote whatever products you looked at or left in your shopping cart and follow you around the web. Advertising is targeted to individual people and may appear on a broad range of sites. One of the emerging trends in online advertising promises to make this possible. MORE >> -
B2BMARKETINGSMARTS | FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2010  Two ways to use your B2B customer database as a valuable targeting tool.
The first part of his presentation was on what I know is the most important part of any B2B marketing campaign — targeting the right market. Hale begins his targeting strategy addressing segmentation. Its objective is to design a marketing mix that precisely matches the expectations of customers in the targeted segment. Before the segmentation analysis begins, however, B2B marketers need to identify which companies should be targeted based on industry, title, company size, number of employees, etc. Look at the customers you’ve lost.
