Navigating through turbulent times is never easy, but today’s economic conditions are certainly challenging. The instinctive reaction is switch to defensive mode; cut all strategic projects and then wait until things improve. But retreating behind the bailey could actually prove to be more detrimental in the long term. Indeed, simple cost reduction on its own will not steer a business safely through the economic downturn. Businesses also need to examine how they can safeguard revenues and profitability, and particularly within their own customer base. Otherwise, they are just delaying the inevitable: more painful cost reductions and the very real possibility of sliding into an irrevocable decline.

Smartphones seem to do it all. They allow us to do almost anything while on the go. We thought drive-throughs were convenient - try finding the closest location of your favorite restaurant, making reservations, getting directions, looking up nutritional information, and writing a review all from the same device. Now THAT is convenient - and almost crazy. More and more, email marketing is now being viewed on the go. So, how can you can be smarter in your approach to emails sent to Smartphones, and better accommodate your on-the-go readers?

When you run into trouble or you need help with your install, who are you going to call? Sure there are plenty of IT guys out there that offer their services, and they may be great at what they do, but for my dollar I am going to call somebody that doesn’t just have general IT knowledge… I am going to call somebody that knows ACT!

Like most companies in complex B2B sales for ERP and CRM systems, you have probably a strong sales focus on new business. That’s very important and the lifeblood for sustainable growth but should not lead to neglecting sales efforts for the lowest hanging fruit: your customer base. The old saying holds true: it is five times more expensive to find a new customer than retaining and growing existing ones. It is a dangerous trap to believe that your customer base is absolutely safe! Your customers are your competitors’ target market. The chances are, you won’t even know they are targeting and selling to your customers.
