How to Measure the ROI of Marketing Automation Software [9/22 @ 11 am]

If marketers tend to not be good at buying tech, should they work with IT to purchase solutions? Or who should they consult with?

Wow, not much love for IT from the Marketing department. When I ran the IT show at Jack Levy Associates, my goal was to be as responsive as possible, but my role was not just to enable Marketing to push into new areas and technologies, ... more

How long does the "hybrid" model need to remain in place?

Big questions still exist over privacy, user rights, and security. Sure, it would be cheaper if everyone put all their furniture in the gymnasium with everyone else in the neighborhood. But people like to have their own stuff, and some things you just aren't comfortable ... more

Are IT people typically not interested in cloud computing because of concerns about staff reduction

that's a great question. i'm attempting to embrace change but it scares me because of the huge drop in the number of jobs i saw in chicago post 9/11, and the merging of positions and lowering of salaries and raising of expectations/requirements to obtain employment ... more
