Influencer 50
Between you and your customers lie the influencers
Influencer 50 If only 2% of those you spend your marketing budget on have any real effect on your sales, isn't it about time you identified that 2%?
Technology marketing is under attack on two fronts. On the one hand, the effectiveness of traditional marketing techniques - such as direct mail and advertising - is declining.  On the other, traditional authorities in the marketplace (journalists and industry analysts) are having diminishing impact on buying decisions. Neither of which is helpful if you're in the business of technology marketing.

Offer a great service? Sell a great product? How will you get anyone to remember you? And even if they do, how can you get them to believe what you're saying?

The fact of the matter is that, using traditional marketing techniques, you can't. Simply throwing more resources at an ever more sophisticated and sceptical audience is not the answer.

There is a better way.
""Our salesforce have increasingly recognised the role of influencers in their major sales opportunities. In late 2005 we took Influencer50 on to help us identify the most prevalent influencers and we're now involving our senior management in acting on the Report's findings. We've high hopes that we'll soon be able to quantify the benefits it has brought us.""
