It's important to build a marketing strategy around a foundation instead of stringing together small "growth hacking" experiments. It's about PEOPLE, PERSONAS, PROCESSES, and PERFORMANCE.
Your PEOPLE should develop and re-develop your PERSONAS and PROCESSES to improve PERFORMANCE.

Presentation given in New York City on 5/19 for Idio.
Trends like scalability, artificial intelligence, distribution and mobility are changing the way we buy, sell and communicate.

In a world of instant communication, the most successful be those that embrace experiences over marketing.
Join us as we talk about why we are not the CEO or VP of sales, the head of marketing or the customer support manager, we are experience makers and managers. The only thing that makes us relevant are the experiences we provide. Everything else is just noise.

The 13 Worst Mistakes Everyone Makes When Writing a News ReleaseJonathan Rick
“I’d love to read your news release.” Said no one ever.
Why is the news release — a staple of the PR industry — so unloved? Hint: It’s not the sin. It’s the sinner.
That is, there’s nothing wrong with the document per se. It’s the way we’re using it.
Why does no one share your releases through social media? Why do they generate so little pick-up by the press? Why do your own eyes glaze over them?
This is why.
I’ll buy you a beer if you aren’t making at least one of these 13 mistakes.

Should marketing have more art or more science? Both! These aren't an either/or proposition. Modern marketing is about combining the best of left-brain analytics and right-brain creativity to deliver compelling customer experiences.

Of course, not everyone needs to be an expert in ALL of those. But all marketers should be willing to embrace them, and the modern marketing organization must find a way to synthesize them with a balanced team.

10 Criteria to Help You Compare Venture Debt Term SheetsKyle Lacy
By John McCullough, Director of Business & Corporate Development at OpenView. As either a key source of minimally dilutive growth funding and / or runway between equity financings, debt is an important component of the capital structure for many VC-backed startups.
Whether you’re raising your first credit line or have been working with the same lender for years, it’s important to understand how to compare venture debt offers (in very general terms, we’ll define venture debt as term financing with durations of between 3 and 5 years), either from less risk-averse venture debt funds or more conservative banks.
While not exhaustive, here are 10 items to compare across competing term sheets that should, to some extent, be up for negotiation.

They say that variety is the spice of life. And that definitely applies when hiring. In fact, OpenView’s Talent Team has made a big push this year to focus on diversity in hiring. Diverse teams have been shown to out-produce their non-diverse counterparts and overall create more interesting, enjoyable workplaces.
That being said, when you’re hiring, there are certain personalities to look for and avoid. And when it comes to salespeople, we’ve found there are 4 distinct personalities: the Producer, the Professional, the Technician and the Caretaker. While all have good traits, there’s one person among the four you’d always want on your team in a closing role. Check out the infographic to find out.
The Economic Impact of Female EntrepreneursKyle Lacy
In 1999, Babson College’s Diana Project published its seminal report on the state of venture capital investments in female entrepreneurs. This report set out to examine why fewer than 5% of all ventures receiving equity financing had women on their executive teams. While antiquated logic might have left you to quickly surmise that female entrepreneurs were neither prepared nor motivated to found high-potential businesses and as a result, were not good candidates for venture capital investors, the Diana Project report actually found stark evidence to the contrary.
Women indeed had the skills, expertise and experience required to lead high-growth ventures, yet, despite their preparedness and qualifications, were consistently left behind.
Fast forward to the second iteration of the report published last year. Unlike the bleak picture the original report drew, time shifted the landscape in the favor of female leaders. While there is still much progress to be made, the 2014 report uncovered immense growth. In fact, data from the report showed that between 2011 and 2013 more than 15% of the companies receiving venture capital investment had a woman on the executive team, compared with just 5% in 1999, proving that given the chance and access to the right networks, women can command equity financing to grow their businesses. And, to further show that women can and will succeed when given the opportunity, First Round Capital discovered just this week that their investments with a female founder performed 63% better than those with all-male founding teams.
