I treat each piece of content Eloqua publishes like a product. Every new asset has a target audience, a list “price” (gated, ungated, hybrid) and an upgrade road map. Most content we publish is supported by a PR push, a direct marketing element, and a media buy.

Stuart Wheldon, senior director of customer success and strategy at Eloqua, agrees with Weatherall’s viewpoint. "I think that marketing has historically been seen as the last frontier to be operationalised”, he says. He thinks this is because "IT has been very focused on the infrastructure in order to run the whole business, and managed it from the same area, but with the shift online marketing now plays a bigger role.”

B2b marketers may have to add options to their opt-in forms so customers and prospects can choose exactly how they would like to be contacted, said Dennis Dayman, chief privacy and deliverability officer at Eloqua, a marketing automation provider. “Marketers that are using Facebook need to make sure they have strong preference options to give people the opportunity to make a choice in how they receive their information and in what format versus in just a single email inbox,” he said.

I used (old fashioned?) email to reach out to some of the people whom marketers rely upon daily for tools and ideas — and here are their informed impressions: Dennis Dayman, Chief Privacy Officer, Eloqua Will this be a first? No. Many systems like Google Wave, Outlook 2007 and others have offered a single “inbox” for all communications (RSS feeds).

"This has given us a great balance between delivering success, rather than just technology, to clients, and at the same time taking the risk out of the decision for them (in the same way that a freemium tries to do)," he said.

When it comes to marketing, social media suffers from the Curse of the Giddy. That is, the battle cries are so busy being cheerful that they forget to be useful. “Engage with your audience.” “Join the conversation.” “Market with your customers, not at them.” We’ve all heard these convenient axioms, each more delightful than the other. But, as a practical matter, none are instructive. None tell you what to actually do. And social media has been around far too long for us to be talking more than doing. (Random tweets and a semi-formed Facebook Fan Page no longer constitute doing.)

TheDigitalLetter
One of the constant issues that comes to mind when dealing with web marketing is who owns what. This is probably more important of an issue when dealing with social media because a major part of this solution is dependent on the creation of content. Without the content in place, there’s no context and people won’t know what to write about, tweet about, share on Facebook or post on YouTube. For businesses, content is definitely king…just read Paul Carr’s recent post on tech blog TechCrunch. Okay, now the message that I’m trying to convey might be lost on Carr’s article, but I believe that the more powerful and relevant your content you are producing, the better engaged your audience will be.

When you think about it, social media is just an organized extension of the way the web has worked since the beginning.

It’s really kind-of remarkable, when you think about us living in an age where we can broadcast to the entire world…and yet relationships are made and leads are generated primarily by word of mouth.

Actually, I think Eloqua's new Content Grid is fabulous: it crams a complex story and a lot of information into an easy to understand infographic on a critical topic for B2B and solutions marketing. Nice job, folks! My small beef is with the definition of "content marketing" that underlies the grid. Don't get me wrong: I'm a huge proponent of companies and marketing organizations getting much more serious about creating and executing integrated content strategies to support marketing and sales...

Lately there's been increased discussion about whether text messaging will become relevant in a B2B marketing environment. We've all seen the stats on Generation Y's use of text messaging and the medium's popularity throughout Europe and Asia. These trends have led experts to predict an inevitable rise in the relevance of text messaging for B2B marketers. I would, however, contend that the opposite may be true. Text messaging may never become a relevant B2B model.

Since the advent of email marketing in the mid-1990s, companies have embraced the misconception that email is virtually "free" as a marketing medium. This false impression often leads to over-communication -- which, in turn, triggers diminished response rates, spam complaints, and unsubscribes. Even marketers who are sensitive to email recklessness sometimes face internal pressures, such as end-of-year revenue numbers, to send "one last blast to the entire database" with the justification that "it doesn't cost us anything."

The rapid pace at which email has developed means that criminals and spammers are constantly looking for new ways to make money and bypass the law. Consequently, email technology and regulators are being forced to keep up. In the past, the threats posed by spam were prevented using fairly basic measures that would block untargeted emails. Content filters were set up to protect inboxes from messages that contained certain keywords.

When email was first developed, it was primarily used as a channel to exchange research between universities, the government and to share military information with targeted parties. Today the landscape is quite different, and email is now a fully-fledged method of communication. As is typical however, as its popularity has grown, so has its appeal to criminals. This has created both a challenge in terms of how to prevent this criminal activity, as well as an opportunity, particularly for marketing services companies who strive to support organisations that dispatch targeted emails as part of their marketing communications activities.

That's the situation Waltham, Mass.-based ZoomInfo finds itself in after implementing an automated lead-nurturing and customer-retention solution. Amanda Halle , a marketing associate for the online service "that extracts information about people and companies from millions of published resources," says it was time for ZoomInfo to integrate and automate its programs, using the option offered by marketing automation solution provider Eloqua of Vienna, Va. The ZoomInfo marketing team had been manually inputting the information—work that consumed several hours a week.

The panel this morning started to talk about the impact of social marketing on email marketing ROI, but turned into a discussion of what metrics are actually important. Turns out that very few of us (at least among the audience here) are doing a great job of measuring and optimizing email marketing based on the data we have now — opens/renders, clicks and conversions. As a contribution to overall revenue, social marketing seems to just add depth and breadth to those metrics, rather than having to introduce brand new measures.

One of the most commonly cited benefits of implementing a marketing automation system is the opportunity to improve your organization’s ability to analyze marketing effectiveness. This is indeed possible, and provides a powerful advantage to organizations who are successful. However the final outcome of great marketing dashboards rests on a strong foundation of data. Ensuring that the data you need is available, cleansed, and normalized is critical to generating the analysis you need.

There is no way to determine with 100% accuracy where an individual buyer is in their buying process. This leads to a difficult marketing conundrum when looking at targeting marketing efforts based on a best possible approximation of where that buyer is likely to be in his or her buying process; in a broad enough population, there will always be some response to a marketing campaign, regardless of what buyer stage it was targeted at.

How do you separate hot leads from long-term leads from tire-kickers? How can you efficiently nurture those long-term prospects, learning more about their interests in the process, until they are really ready to engage with sales?
