  • Actually connecting with potential customers and growing your pipeline is harder than ever before. Today’s sales and marketing environments are a paradox. You have more marketing channels, content and martech tools to reach customers. And using company logic doesn’t lend itself well to actual pipeline growth. According to the CMO Council, “Only 20% of marketers are able to predict the next best action for their customers.”

    Additionally, Forrester Consulting discovered, “65 percent of marketers struggle to employ emotional marketing as they turn to automation to improve customer engagement.” Our guest to discuss this is author and consultant Brian Carroll CEO and Founder of markempa.

  • We've covered a lot ground with the topic of AI, but before it was a thing, companies pushed their teams to implement and vigilantly use tools such as CRM, DemandGen, CMS and so much more as a solution to increase closed deals. During this period the roles of sales, marketing, management and IT evolved dramatically. Bad habits were also part of this evolution.

    Sales and marketing replacing productive personal efforts with filling in blanks to satisfy management with data, data and more data. What was lost along the way? Conversation, relationships, business lunches - IN PERSON relationships, including real voice interaction through the phone. Hiding behind social media, email and texts have hurt companies who wonder why their latest, greatest tools aren't solving the issues. Susan Finch hosts Michelle Huff, when she was Chief Marketing Officer of Act-On Software, Inc.. Michelle understands that tools and systems have their place, but how to you continue to integrate best human practices for the highest results?

  • Susan Finch talks with Paul Petersen about the lazy, stupid mistakes people make when using social media. They forget it's a people to people media and try to automate posts - barfing our stuff and that of others vs. true engagement to build relationships that can be converted to prospects or advocates - from either direction.

    Let's be honest, she goes on a few rants here because she's passionate about this topic. But she is right. Dead right. Everyone wants the easy way, the silver bullet to avoid actual work. People want to be liked, and loved, and talked about, but they don't want people to people contact; they just want it to look like they have contact, and care when they don't.

    ----more----

    Social media enables a unique opportunity to study another person or company before we attempt to directly engage. We can see their actual positions, words, favorite products, styles and more - it's way more informative than straight data. Data is sold as truth, but that's not the case. Data is an in the moment tabulation of a top of mind discussion, whims, a news headline trigger, a trip down memory lane and then the rabbit holes that spin-off of those directions.

    Social enables us to search for who is talking about what and then filter it from there - their position, their passions, their bugaboos, their pain. This guides the introduction and conversation. But how much should you engage? Why not automate it all? How can your CRM help you sincerely engage? You have the tools, you may need to rethink how you use them.

    Many CRM systems Dery says:

    Can allow on-premise users to switch to a free web-clientCheck to see if your system can allow SaaS or client based accessMost Windows enabled CRM systems can be virtualizedQuote software and inventory systems are easy to access if you aren’t using them.

The ability to target customers and prospects with the right messages will be dumped into chaos. Analytics and conversion traffic will disappear as most third-party cookie users know it today.

The proposed regulations would establish procedures to facilitate consumers’ new rights under the CCPA and provide guidance to businesses for how to comply.
