The Critical Role of Sales Throughout the New Product Development ProcessGreg Bonsib
The sales team has a critical role at every stage of the NPD process. So does product marketing. These roles are very different and each crucial to the ultimate product commercialization success in the marketplace.
New Product Development was a 3-day public workshop for managers offered for many years through what is now UW-Madison’s Center for Professional and Executive Development (CPED). Since CPED has modified its mission to focus on leadership and management training, this and other marketing classes have been discontinued. Therefore I am providing this for your individual education.
A version of this presentation with embedded hyperlinks to YouTube videos and other educational sites is available through my website, BrainSnacksCafe.com.
Enjoy!
Most product launches seem to be troubled. Either we don't hit the market window, we don't take the right steps, or we don't work with the right people. This presentation provides snapshot to help you perfect your product launches.

The New Products Process
*
The Procter & Gamble Cosmetics SagaStarting point: senior management commitment to new products.P&G’s Cosmetics business unit had no clear product strategy, unfocused product initiatives, and too many customer segments being targeted – in short, a lack of focus.P&G Cosmetics skillfully used all three strategic elements and made the weak business unit profitable.
*
P&G Cosmetics and the PICSituation Assessment:Underserved consumer market that wanted quality facial product such as cleansers, eye products, etc.Supply chain was uncoordinated as production and shipments were not tied to demand; market forecasts were not driving shipping schedules.PIC recommended a strategic focus on products for the face – other opportunities would not be pursued.
*
P&G Cosmetics and the New Products ProcessP&G Cosmetics used a phased process like that of Chapter 1.Project teams established early in process.Consumer research done early and used in the process (the voice of the customer).Tough evaluation steps were carefully implemented as new products were compared to best practices and benchmarks.
*
P&G Cosmetics and the New Product PortfolioP&G Cosmetics systematically added new products such that maximum buzz and excitement was created in the marketplace.If already several eye makeup products on the market, they would not immediately launch another. Management called this an “initiative rhythm” for product launch.
*
P&G Cosmetics and the Role of Effective Team ManagementSenior Cosmetics executives were committed to success as was corporate level management.Initiative Success Managers were hired to lead strategy development, manage evaluation meetings, train employees, etc.The best team leaders were sought and rewarded based on performance.

The Impact of COVID-19 in B2B MarketingDemand Metric
In Q2 2020, we asked marketing leaders at mid-sized B2B companies in the USA abouthow the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted their plans for the year.
Here’s what we found.
In 2018, Return Path and Demand Metric partnered to study the state of email marketing to equip marketers with data and best practices to improve the use of email.
Engagement is the key to getting email into subscriber inboxes. This relationship to deliverability made engagement a logical next candidate for the study. Return Path and Demand Metric partnered again to study engagement and its relationship to email deliverability.
Infographic Vidyard Video Marketing 2018Demand Metric
For far too long, the emphasis on video content marketing has been on production quality; the higher the quality, the more marketing value a video is presumed to have. While quality is certainly an important aspect of video content, producing quality video does not guarantee video content marketing success. Success is very much a function of how well video content and viewing data integrate with the marketing technology stack, and how the sales team leverages the intelligence. In this fifth annual video content marketing report, Demand Metric and Vidyard partnered on research to better understand the use of video for sales and marketing, how performance is being measured, and what impact video is having. This study’s focus is on the use of video in marketing, the maturity indicators such as measuring video content performance, and how video viewing data is integrated with marketing automation platforms (MAP) and customer relationship management (CRM) systems. This report shows what progress, if any, has been made in the fifth year of this study. These study results provide insights and data useful for helping marketers get the highest possible return on their video content investment.

It has been said that “All Marketing is Digital Marketing.” And with good reason! In the last decade (or less), the marketing environment has been transformed.
Marketing has moved from an environment in which traditional marketing, brick and mortar storefronts and Digital Marketing options all competed for the time, attention and resources of the marketing department to one in which Digital Marketing reigns supreme – with an occasional nod in the direction of the storefront, or traditional marketing (direct mail, print advertising, etc.)
One of the biggest challenges of Digital Marketing is the speed of which it has taken over the marketing organization, often in an ad hoc, uncoordinated fashion.
Demand Metric’s research has consistently shown that Digital Marketing has a very significant and positive impact on the organizations that are employing it when they do so by following best practices and processes in a coordinated, holistic approach.
In this Best Practices Report on Digital Marketing we will cover the Digital Marketing landscape in five distinct categories - Content Marketing, Social Media Marketing, Mobile Marketing, Video Marketing and Public Relations

Our Content Marketing Solution Study presents the insights, landscape and vendors within the content marketing space.

The three foundation functions of marketing automation systems are – email marketing, campaign management and lead management. While the most advanced and sophisticated marketing automation systems have extending capabilities far beyond this base, these functions are core to a Marketing Automation system.

SEO is no longer just about search.
In fact, SEO, which in its early days focused primarily on keywords
(finding, optimizing, ranking), is now a baseline factor of a broader Internet
Marketing strategy across the Enterprise.
This new SEO-driven market segment that has been called Web
Presence Management (WPM) is based on the reality that keywords no
longer drive search results, but rather optimized content does.
As the SEO market matures, quality measures, such as reputation, trust,
content relevance and author authority, are replacing the old quantity
metrics, such as keyword rankings and link volume.
Advanced SEO solutions now weigh campaign performance metrics
(based on brand building, site traffic and conversion) more heavily than
keyword rankings.
This reality is based on changes in the way customers search, the
increasingly integrated omni-channel marketing environment and,
most notably, changes to Google’s Search Engine Results Page (SERP)
algorithms that favor page content freshness, density and content-rich
media over standard keyword search.
All of this means that Modern Marketing Organizations (MMOs) must
re-evaluate their SEO strategies, processes and campaigns.
In this report we will examine the state of the market, share results from the
SEO Benchmark Study, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of 15 top
SEO solutions in our vendor landscape to help organizations choose the
best solution for them, highlight the current trends in SEO that will have an
impact on Enterprise SEO initiatives and provide some recommendations
for the way forward as SEO is redefined right before our eyes.
Demand Metric defines Search Engine Optimization Platforms
as those frameworks, tools and technologies that use searchrelated
functionally to secure high visibility and web presence
for brands, products, services and companies through the use
and management of elements, such as keywords, links, content
relevance and social signals tracking.
In its fourth year, this report on video marketing metrics highlights best practices including video hosting to how video viewing integrates with the sales funnel.

Entering the European Market Successfully How-To GuideDemand Metric
Executive Summary
Leaving your domestic comfort zone to operate in another country or even continent requires careful planning. Expanding into new geographical markets is very exciting, but also very nerve-wracking. Any firm considering entering into international business transactions must understand that doing business abroad is not a simple task. It is stimulating and potentially profitable in the long-term but requires much preparation and research prior to the first transaction.
Europe is probably the most heterogeneous continent on our globe, making understanding market potential more challenging than in more homogeneous markets. Because of the European Union, it’s tempting to view Europe as a single market. In reality, you must consider each country as a market, because each country has a different mix of history, culture, language and business etiquette.
This How-To Guide will describe the steps required to successfully expand into the European market.

Driving SEO with Press Releases How-To GuideDemand Metric
This How To Guide will explain how press releases can boost SEO efforts, how to write press releases for SEO, the pros and cons of doing so and conclude with an action plan on using press releases in your SEO efforts.
For decades, press releases were the basic building blocks of a public relations strategy. A company that wanted press coverage would write and issue a press release. The more skilled the company was at media relations, the better this strategy worked. Press releases still serve this purpose, although a new and important use of press releases has evolved as a tool for Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
For companies whose websites are key to revenue generation, the SEO benefits are the primary motivation for writing and issuing press releases. If releases also produce favorable media coverage, that’s viewed as a bonus. The benefits of this SEO strategy result from the links a press release can produce back to the issuer’s website. These links are known as backlinks. The more external, authentic backlinks a website has pointing to it, the higher it ranks on a Search Engine Results Page (SERP). While this strategy is conceptually simple to grasp, executing it effectively requires some insider knowledge of both media relations and SEO.

Calculating Customer Lifetime Value How-To GuideDemand Metric
Executive Summary
This How-To Guide details the definition of customer lifetime value (CLV), the advantages of calculating CLV and the standard formula for calculating CLV.
Common sense tells us that the longer a customer is in relationship with a company, the more profitable that customer relationship is. However, many companies put the emphasis on new customer acquisition and not enough effort is made to retain existing customers. This is a mistake, because the financial impact of retaining customers is substantial: companies can increase profits by as much as 100% by retaining just 5% more of their customers. For these reasons, CLV is a crucial metric that most organizations overlook mainly because its definition and purpose are not entirely known. Understanding the monetary value each customer represents to your organization can help you budget correctly for your business needs, strategically plan your marketing initiatives and improve long-term relationships with your customer base.

Lead Scoring: Five Steps to Getting Started How-To GuideDemand Metric
Executive Summary
This How-To Guide will help marketers score leads by showing how to set up a simple lead scoring system and then refine it over time.
Lead scoring applies mathematical formulas to rank potential customers. It is chiefly used to identify prospects that are ready for direct sales contact. Because the calculations are automatic, the scores are consistent, current, and can include more variables than any manual assessment. This saves marketers work, ensures that all qualified leads are sent to sales promptly, and keeps non-qualified leads out of the sales system.

Executive Summary
This How-To Guide will explain the components of a Marketing Resource Management (MRM) system, provide an action plan for deployment, and conclude with a plan for implementation.
Marketing Resource Management (MRM) systems control the administrative processes that support customer-facing marketing programs. This distinguishes MRM from marketing execution systems that store customer databases and deliver marketing messages through email, Web ads, and other channels. MRM may be sold independently or as a component of comprehensive marketing management systems which also provides execution.
MRM functions fall into two primary clusters. The first involves functions related to company-level marketing management, including program planning, scheduling, budgeting, and cost reporting. The other cluster relates to program management, including task lists, purchasing media and materials, and content creation, approvals, storage, and distribution. Some MRM systems specialize in a few of these functions. Others specialize in additional functions such as customizing content for local offices or dealers or in marketing reporting and analysis. Systems may also be tailored to specific industries or companies of a certain size.
Companies buy MRM systems when their marketing programs become too complicated to run in a less systematic fashion. This, along with the systems’ high cost, originally meant that MRM was used almost exclusively by large marketing organizations with hundreds of marketers in multiple offices. More recently, the growth of digital marketing has meant that even small marketing organizations need to manage many different programs and content versions across multiple channels, and to introduce new versions more quickly. This expanded complexity has rarely been accompanied by a corresponding expansion of staff, adding to the pressure for more efficient operations. At the same time, costs have decreased as MRM capabilities were added to integrated marketing suites and as stand-alone MRM products became available as vendor-hosted services (Software as a Service, or SaaS). The result has been increased use of MRM systems among companies of all sizes.

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
