Managing a remote workforce—sometimes hundreds of miles
away—is dependent on outlining procedures and providing direct
communication to your workers. Businesses shy away from telework
for this very reason, and they believe managing a remote workforce
is extremely complex and time-consuming. Luckily, web conferencing
and webinars make the process painless for collaborative meetings
with remote workers and supports open communication with the staff.

While webinars are a valuable part of the marketing mix, your
webinar platform is inherently isolated from other critical systems
– CRM, marketing automation, and third-party registration.
This disconnect presents a number of challenges including less
accurate data, more manual work to move data between systems, and
delayed follow up. Good thing many business-critical systems can
now be integrated with webinar platforms to eliminate these errors
and manual tasks. Tune in to this AMA TV episode... Read More » »

Face-to-face interaction is no longer required for a
businesses to succeed in this day and age. In fact, more and
more businesses are moving away from the traditional office setting
and outsourcing their work to remote workers in other cities,
states and countries. Telecommuting is one of the most cost
effective ways to grow a business; and despite many misnomers,
telecommuting doesn’t disconnect a worker from the office.
Many businesses are using helpful communication methods to

Last week, I attended the SiriusDecisions 2012 Summit in
Scottsdale. While the weather was hot (102 degrees) the emerging
trends for B2B marketers were even more so. I sat through

Citrix regarding content marketing and predictive analytics
(yikes!), which basically debunked the myth that marketers plan
parties and design cool logos and reinforced how much of marketing
is now a science. The 4 key concepts that were discussed during...
