How do we measure the value of social media?Helge Tennø
By referencing several of the current changes as social media we limit the perspective and reach of our ideas. We see these activities as satellites outside of core business, insignificant flirting with customers compared to the bigger commercial changes happening.
Our job is to become ambassadors and show the rest how customer insight and involvement can be increasingly valuable to the future of the business.

Scope, scope creep & its impact on project deliveryOrangescrum

Towards the end he suggests a couple of frameworks for succeeding in implementing a marketing automation system and presents a couple of cases in which SBD have successfully solved their clients' problems.
(Chatura Fernando + Sasha Williamson, IBM) Kafka Summit SF 2018
In this session we will be showing you how to apply design thinking to evaluate and use Kafka in a meaningful way within your organization. We’ll walk through five techniques we use within our own organization grounded in design thinking methodologies to help us tease out user problems and understand what to act on.
Use these best practices to work through question such as:
-How could event stream benefit my organization?
-Where does Kafka sit in my organization?
-What Kafka data is most useful to my consumers?
-How do I split responsibilities between your users and DevOps?
-How does Kafka tie into my existing tech stack?
Lavante VP of Product Management Sherry DePew presented this definitive discussion about vendor fraud at the Arkansas IAPP chapter meeting. Hosted by Walmart. Thanks Walmart for you continued support.
7 Habits of Highly Effective Executive BriefingsKelley Henry
As an enterprise technology venture capital fund in New York City, Work-Bench has worked with hundreds of early stage go-to-market enterprise startups to accelerate their Fortune 1000 customer acquisitions.
Executive Briefings are a valuable tool for the startups in our community to meet and connect with Fortune 1000 enterprise buyers. For enterprises, it’s a chance to evaluate relevant emerging startups that address new opportunities or solve pain points. For startups, these briefings are a foot in the door with a potential customer through a trusted partner who can help elevate you beyond the noise.
After hosting more than 150 executive briefings with enterprise technology buyers and observing thousands of startup pitches, we’ve noticed key patterns from many of our portfolio companies that lead to successful meetings, follow-up conversations, and in the best case, POCs and pilots. We created a playbook, 7 Habits of Highly Effective Executive Briefings, to serve as a guide to own the room and land your next enterprise customer.

9. ABOUT TEMPO AI
Presently in stealth mode, incubated at SRI, backed by a great group of SV VCs, Tempo is focused on
developing a day assistant with enterprise data
Tempo’s value-prop is enabled by well-know enterprise trends:
1. BYOD and BYOA
2. Opening-up of the walls (enterprise data available via OAuth)
3. Consumerization of IT (Increased focus on UI in enterprise apps)
Independently, Tempo leverages emerging trends in the enterprise
1. Use of affordable cloud computing to enable a personalized and a context -aware experience
2. Bottoms-up Go-To-Market
APPNATION IV
SAN FRANCISCO, CA
DECEMBER 11-12, 2012
10. TREND 1: CONTEXT AWARE IS THE NEW LAYER
Context is akin to LBS; location used to be a category but what app doesn’t benefit from location
With enterprise, you have user data from his cloud services but you also have his context
• In the office or out of the office or maybe even on a flight
• On a sales call or in a team meeting or maybe at his desk
With his cloud data, you have even more context:
• User-specific data such as calendar, contacts, email, tasks
• Enterprise data such as projects, bugs, wiki, CRM and more
By blending this data, you can provide a series of uniquely personalized experiences
APPNATION IV
SAN FRANCISCO, CA
DECEMBER 11-12, 2012
11. EXAMPLES OF CONTEXT AWARE IN THE ENTERPRISE (TODAY)
1. Knowing when to leave based on current traffic conditions; the device knows where you are and what
you are doing and it can suggest when you need to head out of the office
2. Asking you if you need a taxi; the device knows when you are at the remote office and you just stepped
out of the building in the evening
3. Notifying you of key birthday’s; your top sales contacts are in the CRM and the device knows the time
and date so you can send a personalized note in a timely fashion
4. Letting you know when your colleagues are nearby; the device knows where you are in the building and
where you are going
5. Automatically logging billable hours; based on location and time, the device can log where you spend
your time and who you called (eg attorneys)
6. Surfacing the top priorities; device knows when it’s downtime or when you are on an airplane and can
surface critical emails or tasks
APPNATION IV
SAN FRANCISCO, CA
DECEMBER 11-12, 2012
12. TREND 2: BOTTOMS-UP IS THE DESIRED GO TO MARKET
B2B requires scaling a sales team (more linear growth) and often means customer development is
happening with the buyer and not the user. Classic example is Salesforce that is designed for managers.
Bottoms-up requires certain elements:
• Needs to appeal to the consumer (5PM-9AM) and the prosumer (9AM-5PM)
• Needs to be horizontal enough to enable self-adopt; a CRM mobile tool would not appeal to the barista!
• Needs to be marketed and launched like a consumer app (b/c it is a consumer app) and needs to be
proven like a consumer app
• User testing should occur with not only your target persona but also more general personas (eg
soccer mom, student etc)
• High downloads + usage and then monetization; law of large #s!
BYOA is enabling bottoms-up and enterprises are accepting!
