From Web Analytics to Demand Generation. ActiveConversion first became known for its sales-focused Web Analytics, such as identifying companies that visit your website (similar to Leadlander ). So the people behind ActiveConversion gave me a demo to show they are more than a niche player. Anonymous Visitor Identification.

My little tour of demand generation vendors landed at Pardot just before Thanksgiving. As you’ll recall from my post on Web activity statistics , Pardot is one of the higher-ranked vendors not already in the Raab Guide to Demand Generation Systems. This pricing is low even among SMB demand generation systems.

Summary: Active Conversion helps marketing and sales departments make the best use of leads they’ve generated outside the system. That's fewer functions than traditional demand generation, but if those are the functions you need, who cares? But a longer list of options creates more potential combinations.

you know that I see a lot of demand generation systems. There are two basic approaches to this: use a flow chart, or present a list of steps. My own opinion is quite firm: flow charts don't work. Here, then, is a list of vendors (alphabetically) and their interfaces. I'm in favor of that approach.

Someone (I think it was end-of-day panelist Meg Heuer of Sirius Decisions ) also pointed out that CRM data is often very dirty, which isn't a problem for salespeople working with one record at a time, but making it hard to use for marketing.

I had a very productive conversation on Friday with Fred Yee, president of ActiveConversion , a demand generation system aimed primarily at small business. In fact, this was so interesting that I didn’t look very closely at the ActiveConversion system. Anyway, back to our talk.

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.)
