Neuro Marketing. Marketing Resources. What is Reverse Marketing. Reverse marketing is one of those things we hear about a lot these days, but often don't know what it means. You know how there are some of these specific 'cocktail party topics' which someone initiates and the others just nod along, offering no opinion because they don't know what it means! But it is a truly global phenomenon today and several companies across the world have used it to good effect. Basics of Reverse Marketing Well I love to start with an example, so this article is going to be pretty much a 'reverse article' with the examples coming first and the theory coming in a bit later.

The most commonly talked about example must be of the cosmetics company 'Dove'. Now cosmetics companies usually talk about how their products will add to your flawed looks. But Dove chose a different path altogether. The example probably told you a bit about what reverse marketing strategies are. It may seem illogical that this approach should work.

The future of marketing, and how to weather the tsunami of change that is coming. About 6 months back, I wrote a note on the biggest changes I have personally witnessed in marketing in the last 20 years. You can read it here . I’ve been on the watch-out since then to keep track of not what has been, but what seems close to happening. The future of marketing as I see it… From my observations and experiences, here are the 10 consumer and business challenges I see for today and tomorrow : 1- Consumer is more complex than ever . Chameleon behavior is a given. And guess what, all of the above 10 are interlinked, interdependant, correlated, in many many ways! The future of marketing, as a business discipline, will, in my opinion, be primarily characterised by: 1- The “Digital Hurricane”. 2- ROI will become part of “brand basics”. 4- Related to nr 3: earned media is gaining from bought media. 5- It’ll be all about content , content , content and most importantly user-generated-content. 6- New shopping channels .

The Sales Challenger™ » 5 B2B Marketing Trends for 2012. (This is a guest post by Patrick Spenner of the Marketing Leadership Council, our sister program for heads of Marketing.) Each year, the Marketing Leadership Council (MLC) surveys our members about their top challenges looking ahead. As we read the tea leaves in this year’s survey results, here are our thoughts on what’s creeping into (or storming) the B2B marketing consciousness for 2012. 1) Voice-of-Customer 2.0.

Marketers are grappling with what kinds of customer data are most important to collect and how to make hay out of the data. 2) Skill Set Reset. As one example of B2B marketing teams aggressively managing the skill set transition, consider the example of Cisco starting to “badge” and reward its marketers on their social media impact. Ask yourself: how sweet/spooky would it be for 20% of your pay to rest on your social graph? 3) Disruption. 4) Going Global. (SEC Members, check out our new resources on assessing your global readiness.) 5) Content Marketing Hits the Breaking Point. New Product Blueprinting. B2B Product Launch.
