Notes de l'éditeur
Technology has facilitated a significant shift in how people in business interact with the companies they buy from.
Until the early 2000s, businesses supplying other businesses could still (just about) get away with broadcast marketing, using relatively untargeted, unsophisticated advertising to promote important product or service features.
Not anymore! Just as the procurement function became more professional, your customers got smarter. They now rely on the Internet to research, shortlist and select suppliers. And as Generation Y – 20- and 30-something digital natives enter the workplace – it will be the companies that use the Internet to project beyond their own website to draw Generation Y buyers to them that will win online.
Run through examples discussing the difference between Stelzner’s primary and nuclear fuel (from the book Launch!)
Primary fuel (lifespan = 3 days) incl How to guides, Expert interviews, Reviews, News stories, Case studies
Nuclear fuel (lifespan = months) incl Survey reports, White papers, Top 10 contests, Micro events (webinars, video, podcasts)
