As you might imagine, I’ve been trying to decide how to expand the set of products covered in the Raab Guide to Demand Generation Systems.

Alterian and SmartFocus are also still independent, but are sold as services via marketing agencies (Alterian) or directly (SmartFocus). Although the world has certainly changed since the late 1990’s, I see no reason to expect a different pattern among demand generation vendors.

Summary: Consumer-oriented marketing automation systems have been slower to adopt the Software-as-a-Service model than business marketing (demand generation) systems.

Although I actually think that quite a few demand generation vendors share the Marketo philosophy, it’s still helpful to hear the distinction made clearly.

B2B marketers looking for ways to turn their Web sites into demand generation tools have some new solutions to consider. As part of a broader lead generation, on-demand platform, Demandbase offers a free, downloadable Web application built on Adobe AIR (one of 3 investors in an $8M round they also announced.)

Campaign analysis in demand generation systems. The question here is whether most demand generation systems ( Eloqua , Vtrenz , Marketo , Market2Lead , Manticore , etc.) , so I suppose I’ll have to start defining a standard set of my own. There may be a quiz.)
