The Benefits of Embracing Real-Time Marketing on Social Channels and Beyond
Marketo | Marketing Strategy May 16, 2013
Authors: Julio Viskovich
Real-time marketing is a process that enables marketers to capitalize on real-time events and deliver a
relevant message to the right person at the right time. Ideas must be developed in minutes rather than days or
weeks. And messaging centers around real-time feedback from customers or around current events that
happen. The benefit of this type of marketing, is that you can capitalize on trending topics that your followers
can relate to.
How Twitter Can Help Your Sales Team
Social Media Today | Social Selling December 15, 2012
Authors: Julio Viskovich
A 2012 study by the Aberdeen Group found that 79% of sales reps that incorporated social media into their
sales process achieved their quota over the last year compared to 43% of the industry average. How could this
be? It’s because the traditional sales process is a few touch points with long periods of darkness. Social

media, and particularly Twitter, help transform the sales process into something more engaging and
interactive.
How LinkedIn Can Help Your Sales Team
Social Media Today | Social Selling December 17, 2012
Authors: Julio Viskovich

connections that will pay-off for your sales team today and down the line.
What Is Social Selling and How Does It Increase Sales?
Social Media Today | Social Selling December 12, 2012
Authors: Julio Viskovich
Social selling is a new way to approach a sales process that allows you to stay relevant with your prospect
when you would normally go dark during off periods of non-communication. Social selling allows you to stay
connected with your prospects and build a relationship with them that goes beyond a vendor toward a trusted
advisor.
