The paper, from Manticore Technology , recommends five best practices for business marketing: (1) define a unified marketing and sales pipeline; (2) deploy an integrated marketing and sales platform; (3) measure pipeline activity; (4) automate lead nurturing; and (5) focus on the top of the funnel.

In Fernandez’ view, this reflects a fundamental philosophical difference from his competitors: Marketo sees marketing as reacting to prospect-initiated behaviors, not executing company-driven interaction paths. My own experience over the years has been that flow charts quickly become too complicated for most marketers to deal with.

I do recognize that they are the best known vendors in the space (with apologies to Vtrenz , whose identity is somewhat blurred since its purchase by Silverpop ). But there are plenty of other options, particularly for marketers with limited budgets. They focus on email nurturing campaigns and marketing measurement.

So it came as a pleasant surprise to find that marketing automation vendor Vtrenz’ ( www.vtrenz.com ) series “Effective Relationship Marketing” presented a fairly comprehensive overview of its topic, including several points with no obvious direct relationship to Vtrenz products. A sly joke, perhaps? Fair enough.

B2B marketers looking for ways to turn their Web sites into demand generation tools have some new solutions to consider. Yesterday, Demandbase announced a new software suite to help marketers harvest passive traffic visiting Web sites. The technology appears useful at both ends of this spectrum. Among other stuff.

Silverpop Engage B2B (formerly Vtrenz) on Monday rele ased its first visual campaign builder, finally matching a feature offered by nearly all its competitors. A track can include placeholder objects, letting users design a campaign before its marketing materials are ready. It definitely raises the bar for the rest of the industry.

Over the past few months, I’ve had conversations with “demand generation” software vendors including Eloqua , Vtrenz and Manticore , and been on the receiving end of a drip marketing stream from yet another (Moonray Marketing, lately renamed OfficeAutoPilot ). But I suspect the shift reflects something more fundamental.

Standard vs. custom selection of marketing metrics. Maybe it’s not a question at all: every application presents them, and every marketer asks for them, usually in terms of “best practices”. The question here is whether most demand generation systems ( Eloqua , Vtrenz , Marketo , Market2Lead , Manticore , etc.)

What with all the recent acquisitions in the digital marketing industry, I thought I’d draw a little diagram of all the components needed for a complete solution. I’ve written about pretty much every variety of online marketing software here or elsewhere and have reviewed dozens of products in depth. The results were a surprise.
