Creating Pipeline Through Use of a Sales Playbook (AA-ISP San Francisco 2012)...Ralph Barsi
Prospecting is essential for growing any business. It’s a vital part of conducting business that complements a company’s growth strategy and initiatives. Organizations whose salespeople use a playbook separate themselves from the rest of the pack. Not only do those organizations create pipeline essential to achieving revenue goals, but their salespeople master a skill that is lost on most sales teams.

Marketing Value Proposition and Positioning of Early Stage Technology: Five L...Kikuyu Daniels
Is the communication of value important in the licensing of patented inventions?
Most technology transfer professionals would answer that it is indeed important. When these same professionals are asked how much time they spend marketing patented inventions relative to their involvement in other licensing related activities, there is often hesitation before an answer is offered. Most technology transfer professionals really do not think of the work they perform as involving “marketing” per se. The daily demands of evaluating invention disclosures, patenting inventions, and negotiating license agreements often overshadow the outreach or communication efforts necessary to find new companies suitable to license the inventions. Even so, the importance of identifying and communicating the value of the intellectual property to companies who demonstrate the ability to turn the inventions into commercially successful products as a part of the overall licensing business model simply cannot be overstated.
The specific subset of marketing that involves communication of value for the purposes of demand creation is called marketing communications. This presentation highlights close yet often overlooked relationships between basic concepts of traditional B2B marketing communications and the marketing of early stage technology for purposes of licensing inventions for use in the market as new products and processes. It was developed with University Technology Transfer in mind, but the concepts and techniques presented may prove useful for non-profits, government agencies, and others who license their intellectual property to companies for further development into commercial products.
I gave this presentation in a workshop format at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology TLO (Technology Licensing Office) in April of 2009. I have since revised it and placed here for public viewing. I am interested in any feedback and comments, especially from tech transfer and technology marketing professionals. Please post your comments or private message me with your thoughts regarding this topic and on the presentation itself.
Many thanks to Jane Muir, Associate Director of the Office of Technology Licensing at University of Florida, for sharing with me her wealth of experience in teaching marketing and communications to Technology Transfer Professionals.
Everyone talks “integrated” but too often integration of marketing falls drastically short. If your advertising, campaigns, website and all marketing efforts are not synced, you are wasting time and money and not operating effectively. The presenter will show practical case studies of integration done well and provide tangible takeaways about how you can integrate your paid, earned, owned and social media.

At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

23. Attraction through Differentiation
• To a prospective customer, it is not:
– Great service
• They haven’t worked with you yet
– Length of time in business
• But it might be similar customers you’ve served over
all those years
– How well trained your staff is
• Certifications & training are the entry ticket
24. What people really buy?
• Your unique product/service
• Your unique process
• Your unique experience
• Your unique people
• Your unique guarantee
• Your unique packaging/delivery
…..Against their problems
Its not about the products you sell, its about the
problems you solve!
25. Ask Your Ideal Customers…
• What made you decide to hire us?
• What was the biggest problem we solved?
• What that we do is of the most value?
• What’s one thing we do better?
• What could we do better?
• What would you Google?
• Would you refer us (and what do you say)?
….What themes emerge?
26. The foundation is built...
• You know why you are in business
• You have a difference you can talk about
that matters to your ideal customer
• You understand the problems you solve for
your ideal customers
• You care about repeat customers
