The environmental impact of this spill has been devastating and BP has been charged with the responsibility of assuming all costs associated with the cleanup.

BP’s actions will be under the microscope over the weeks, months and years that follow. That said, as marketers we can learn a lot by watching how their highly skilled PR team deals with this disaster.

You’ve got a great idea for a business, but any time someone asks you to explain it, you end up babbling incoherently and jumping from one concept to the next. If this sounds like something you’re struggling with, it’s important to realize its part of the new business process. Don’t get discouraged; all you need is an articulate way to link together your vision with the practical support you need to make it a reality. When potential investors see that you’ve got your ideas organized, they’ll be more likely to listen to your plea for funding.

As the Chief Analyst at Demand Metric, it’s my responsibility to stay on top of current marketing trends. As a result, I tend to watch a lot of webinars. If you’ve ever attended a webinar you probably feel the same I do – they can be extremely boring, very tiresome and too often uninspiring!
