We’ve got to bridge these damn silos!

One to many information dissemination
Follow the “manual”
Replaceable factory workers

Many to many information dissemination
Contributing stakeholders
Valued artists

Specialization and the transition to the web is fragmenting data.
Silo Proliferation
Database

Increasingly challenging:
Accessing data (internal and external)
Making actionable
Sharing and collaborating

Silos

Web 2.0 – A Silo Explosion

Disconnected Ecosystems of Chaos
Product Development
Partners
Sales
Marketing
AccountManagement
Services
Customers
Support
Single user desktop app  many contributors in web browsers
One to many  many to many
More stakeholders in more locations
Isolated silos of content (varied formats)

Many examples in the customer lifecycle of lossy communications.
Information Asymmetry

Creates lost revenues...

…and unhappy customers.

Decision maker relationships not recognized
Support intelligence not used to up sells
Assets exist, but not used
Product capable, but not communicated
Brand under attack, no response
Easily addressed market never targeted
Services scope misaligned
The symptoms of information asymmetry.
Lost Revenue and Unhappy Customers

Another marketing term. YAY! Providing social context.

Customer Contact Occurs Everywhere
At the tradeshow booth
Contact forms on the web
Q&A during webinars, live chat
Challenge:
How do you capture, rank and share this information so early in the lead lifecycle?
Turning Leads into Prospects into Customers

A glut of critical information and process.
As Leads Qualify, Interactions Increase
Qualification calls
Marketing nurture campaigns
Sales tools introduced
Calls to action made
Challenge:
Is there an effective way to track what was sent, when and by whom?
Each of These Activities Has a Response or Reaction Tied to Them

Opportunities Materialize
What assets do I need to make this deal a reality? Whitepapers, demos, webinars, case studies, silver bullets…
What other groups within my company are going to participate?
Am I working this deal with a partner?
Services involved?
Challenge:
Now that an opportunity has been created, how do I best manage the activities of all those who will help me get this deal done?

Managing, servicing, supporting and renewing accounts.
The Sales Hand Off
Hand off to Support and/or Services
What did sales tell you?
Who scoped this?
Challenge:
Misaligned expectations
Account renewal
Up/Cross selling
Satisfaction
