Intro

Welcome David Meerman Scott

  • New edition of The New Rules of Marketing & PR
  • What's different in the new book?
  • Have the rules of marketing changed how you expected them to when you wrote the New Rules two years ago?
  • What is going to be different in the next edition? Where do you expect marketing to go in the next 5-10 years?
  • You were on a podcast earlier this week and you ranted for a while about measuring ROI in marketing?

Google Ad Words New Lead Gen Tool

  • Why Marketers Should Be Dubious of Google AdWords New Lead Capturing Tool
  • "If you received an invite to beta test and have ads running in position #1, your prospects have the option to click a link under the PPC ad (this can be a customizable call to action) which opens a contact form. The prospect can then use this form to submit their contact information to you without ever leaving Google search results."
  • Google owns your leads' information.
  • You have to manage your leads with Google.
  • No immediate benefit to your prospect after they request a phone call.
  • Marketing Takeaway: Most businesses should drive conversions on their site and own their lead data.
