Here’s the good news: people are consuming more content on a daily basis than ever. Here’s the bad news: they seem to be consuming it all at once. The amount of time we spend in front of the TV, the computer, our mobile devices – it’s all going up. According to recent eMarketer data, adults in the US consume an average of 11 hours of media in a day, with the largest shares going to TV, video and online. Marketers should be happy that consumers are so content hungry. But the...

These are the questions we asked ourselves as we imagined and developed “What is Revenue Performance Management?”, the latest video from Eloqua and JESS3. To be honest, we never came up with a clear answer. I suppose it tastes great and is less filling. When we published The Future of Revenue, the precursor to today’s video, our objective was clear: help create a new category (Revenue Performance Management) by putting our vision in historic context. Worry less about the...

If you did not know who Joseph Kony was one week ago, I am guessing that over the last 10 days, many of you now think you may have heard too much. Visible Measures’s chart above has shown that Kony 2012 not only far outstrips “Old Spice Guy” and “Evian Rollerblading babies” as the most viral brand/cause advertising campaign, but it is in fact the most speedily viral of any videos surpassing Susan Boyle and reaching 100 M views in just 6 days! And here is the other astounding...

When Jill Abramson was growing up on Manhattan's upper West Side, her family maintained two subscriptions to The New York Times. One was for reading; the other for her mother’s crossword puzzle idiosyncrasies. The prominent role the Times played in her home makes the story of Abramson’s rise to become the paper’s first female executive editor all the more fabled. I knew embarrassingly little about Abramson when she took the stage for a casual conversation with Evan Smith, CEO...

That’s why I made my way to Lean Startup panel on the Product Lifecycle today. Hosted by Lean Startup guru, Eric Ries, it was an opportunity to dig out some agile marketing tips from the unexpected source of three software geeks: author Mary Poppendieck, Etsy CEO Chad Dickerson, and...

Some deem it a revolutionary movement in business. Others call it marketing under another name. So what is brand journalism? Often bandied about brand journalism has garnered a lot of attention, but not much clarity. The problem is the philosophy behind it came before the practice. But now that brand journalism is taking root at places like Facebook and Tumblr (and, yes, at Eloqua), it’s clear it’s not just some fad. It does remain plagued by myths, which lead to...
