At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month, residents and community members joined with the Floral Park American Legion to honor veterans at the annual Veteran's Day ceremonies at Memorial Park, following a march down Tulip Avenue to the park with the members of the veterans of the Legion post, American Legion Auxiliary members, Sons of the American Legion, Boy and Cub Scouts from Troops 482 and 678 and local officials.
During the ceremony, a plaque was dedicated in memory of General Kazimierz Pulaski and others of Polish heritage who have served in the U.S. military. The plaque dedication was led by members of the Polish American Congress, Long Island Division, President Grzegorz Worma and Honorary President Richard Brzozowski. An invocation was delivered by Father Peter Rozek of St. Hedwig Church, followed by a POW-MIA ceremony by Post 334 Vice Commander Matthew Cacciatore.

While parking around Long Island Rail Road train stations is typically a challenge, even on a regular work day, the holidays create more of a struggle for commuters in search of parking spots. LIRR spokesman Salvatore Arena said that ridership between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day increases by at least 10 percent; last year it was by 12 percent. Though the MTA is adding more trains to the schedule, that doesn't ease the parking situation, which is operated not by the LIRR, but by individual municipalities in each town.
"Every station is different," Arena said. "A good part of our parking is in the hands of the locality. They set the rules essentially."

The devil would be in the detail!
What is a 'rich' pensioner? Many have small incomes but huge capital assets, house, savings etc. It will all depend on the definition of rich.
The most likely would seem to be to use the criteria of benefit claim, but I think that would cause problems as well.

'The devil would be in the detail!'
Exactly. You'd hardly think Bruce Forsyth needs his free TV licence but how do you find a scheme that removes benefits from those that truly don't need them without it costing more to run than is saved?
The reality is, of course, that many of these things aren't benefits at all. They are bribes and it would take a very brave party to end them.
If someone is on low income, they need extra help but that doesn't mean you have to break that help down into individual things like fares or heating or the TV licence.

I meant to add that when I wrote 'They are bribes and it would take a very brave party to end them' I meant to say that the perception is that it would be electoral suicide to remove them.
IDS might be trying to test the truth of that by seeing how many people are willing to give up money they don't need.

What is it with these Iain Duncan Smith type of politicians, when they seem to keep coming out with these obvious stinging statements for certain parts of the human race. Is this just another 'Think Tank' statement that a politician as thought worthy of a mention, so as to perhaps prove how in touch he is with things?.

A194 "I will take everything I can get and give up nothing voluntarily."
Unfortunately a very common attitude to take " because I've been a taxpayer, I am owed everything I can get".
Taxation is supposed to be a way our society tries to 'even things up', whereby those who can give most make life a bit better for those who have little (the sick, disabled etc).
If we, who have managed to do well in our lives, then demand extra services 'because I've paid in more than you', then society is on a downward spiral of "Devil take the hindmost" - not something I would wish to be part of!

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Some question whether Iowa needs to continue giving celebrities easy access to deer hunting in the state, but it appears unlikely that the promotional program will be scrapped. The state program gives 75 celebrities, such as rocker Ted Nugent and former professional athlete Bo Jackson, an opportunity to buy a special out-of-state deer hunting permit each year. Other non-residents might wait years to buy a similar permit. The celebrity program began in 1998 to help promote the state as a top hunting destination. Iowa Bowhunters Association President Randy Taylor tells the Des Moines Register that he's not sure the state really needs the promotion now because deer hunters nationwide already consider Iowa a top spot to bag a trophy deer.
Outdoor enthusiasts are heading to Council Bluffs this weekend for a giant exposition. The 9th annual River City Hunting Fishing, RV and Boat Expo is being held inside the Mid-America Center tonight (Friday), Saturday and Sunday. Tom Hamilton, member of the Pottawattamie County Pheasants Forever Chapter says the expo will feature many speakers. Including several fishing experts.
There's also lots of activities for the kids, such as: Casting, virtual reality videos, archery, and new this year….the Daisy B-B gun shooting gallery, with qualified instructors teaching safety, and how to shoot. There's also live trout fishing for the kids. Hamilton says any outdoor enthusiast will probably get excited by all the equipment on display at the expo, as well. There's food, fishing & hunting equipment, R-V's and vendors from all over the MidWest and Canada.
The Mid-America Center opens at 4-pm today (Friday) for the 2012 River City Expo. On Saturday the expo will be from 9-am to 6-pm, and on Sunday from 10-am to 4pm. For more information, surf the web to www.rivercityexpo.com
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Hunting mourning doves has been legal in Iowa for nearly a year, but the issue still isn't settled at the Capitol. A Senate subcommittee on Thursday discussed using lead shot ammunition in hunting the birds. The state's Natural Resources Commission last year unanimously voted to ban the practice, but a legislative committee put the ban on hold.
Sen. Dick Dearden, D-Des Moines, says the commission overstepped its bounds in banning lead shot. A resolution he backs to overturn that ban advanced out of the meeting. Environmental advocates told committee members Thursday that lead shot is toxic and can harm animals when eaten. Hunting advocates say the harm is minor and no good alternatives to lead shot exists. The measure now goes to the full Senate Natural Resources Committee.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa will receive $5.6 million in agriculture disaster funds to help farmers recover from flooding along the Missouri River. The funds were part of $310 million in USDA funds announced Wednesday by U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. About 200,000 acres of Iowa farmland were affected by last summer's Missouri River flooding. Officials say the aid will help remove debris and sand left behind when the floodwaters receded. Rich Sims, state conservationist with the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service in Des Moines, says one farmer spent $100,000 for a bulldozer to remove sand from 100 acres of land. He says the funds announced Wednesday may not seem like much but it's only one part of a funding stream available to producers and that every little bit helps.
(Des Moines, Iowa) January 18, 2012: John R. Whitaker, State Executive Director for the Iowa Farm Service Agency, reminds producers sign up for the 2011 livestock, honeybees, and farm-raised fish losses ends on January 30, 2012, under the Farm Service Agency's Emergency Livestock Assistance Program (ELAP). In addition to submitting a notice of loss, producers must file an application for payment by this date. "With the number and variety of adverse weather conditions in Iowa this year, we want all eligible producers to be aware of this deadline,' added Whitaker.
ELAP provides compensation to eligible producers of livestock, honey bees and farm-raised fish for losses due to disease, adverse weather, or other loss conditions, including losses caused by blizzards and wildfires. ELAP is for losses that are not covered by Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP), Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP), or Supplemental Revenue Assistance Program (SURE). Eligible producers under ELAP may receive assistance for losses that occur on or after Jan. 1, 2008, and before Oct. 1, 2011, during the calendar year in which the loss occurs. Eligible losses include feed losses, physical losses and additional costs incurred in providing feed to eligible livestock.
There are two parts to the ELAP application process:
An application for payment cannot be filed without a notice of loss. There are no late filed provisions for ELAP. Producers with eligible losses must timely file an acreage report on grazing land acres, honey bee colonies and farm-raised fish pond acres. Eligible physical losses of honey bees and honey bee hives due to adverse weather or loss conditions are eligible under ELAP. Producers will be required to provide documentation of beginning and ending inventory of honey bee colonies when claiming a physical loss of honey bees or honey bee hives.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack is expected to announce that 33 states and Puerto Rico will receive a share of more than $300 million in emergency funds to help them recover from an unusually intense year of natural disasters. Missouri and Utah will receive more than one-third of that total after record flooding in both states. Missouri suffered through months of flooding after the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released unprecedented amounts of water from northern Missouri River basin reservoirs, while Utah saw record snow melt that caused heavy flooding. Of the $308 million in aid to be announced Wednesday, roughly $109 million goes to the two states. Vilsack noted that 2011 was unusual because almost every part of the country was hit by some type of disaster.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The number of deer killed during the recent hunting season was down about 4 percent from last year. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources says in a news release Tuesday that Iowa hunters killed nearly 113,000 deer during the season that ended Jan. 10. That is also down about 21 percent from 2006. Although the numbers of deer taken are down, the DNR says the number of deer licenses issued has remained about the same since 2006. Dale Garner, chief of the DNR's Wildlife Bureau, says the reduced kill numbers are the result of the reduced deer population. He says officials will review the deer harvest and make proposals to reduce the number of deer killed and stabilize the state's deer population.
Iowa has more than 80 custom meat lockers that process farm-raised pork and beef, but at this time of year, they're busy with another type of meat — venison. John Lawrence, a livestock specialist at the Iowa State University extension, says many consumers are turning to venison as the costs of more traditional meat products rise. He says as venison grows in popularity, it's keeping many small town facilities busy. Lawrence says, "Particularly at this time of year, we think about deer season and the number of deer that are processed through these small plants to the point that if I wanted to have a hog butchered to put in my freezer, I might have to wait until February to get it in because they're processing the deer from hunting season." Although there's nearly one of these processing facilities per county, many struggle to pay a competitive wage while at the same time being large enough to support any family members who may eventually take over. Lawrence says while these facilities have plenty of work for the next few weeks, it's sometimes a struggle the rest of the year.
He says, "Many of those same business challenges we see in agriculture and up and down Main Street, and if we aren't able to bridge those gaps and solve those problems, we see a lot of those smaller, family-owned businesses go by the wayside." Lawrence says in some cases, the custom processor brings more business into town when people come to pick up their meat. According to the Iowa Department of Agriculture's website, the state has 83 custom meat lockers, with another 38 state-inspected facilities.

Two days ago we told you about how a Kingston family was holding out hope that their missing son and soldier would return home safely. 23 News has learned that soldier Michael Torok was found dead.
Twenty-three-year-old soldier Michael Torok was found dead in a rural area east of Monroe Center in Ogle County. Torok had just returned from service in Afghanistan just weeks ago.
The Dekalb County Sheriff's Department says they were able to find Torok after a re-examination of cell phone records gave deputies a new area to search.
He was last seen at a Menard's in Cherry Valley on September 5, 2004. Michael's mother says he was supposed to then visit a friend that day but never showed.
Law enforcement began a formal search on September 7, 2004 to try to track down Michael. Authorities had hoped to find his black Chevy Silverado that he was last seen driving.
An autopsy is scheduled for Saturday.

Beer-vana in Grantham
I recently entered paradise in Grantham and paradise resembles a brew house. For years I have been dreaming about brewing a beer with a professional brewer, and that fantasy has now come true courtesy of a brewery in the Lincolnshire market town.
Grantham is notable for being the birthplace of Margaret Hilda Roberts, and because out of three breweries in the area two of them have women as principal brewers. That latter fact is notable because women make up fewer than 2% of professional brewers in the UK. So in terms of putting the X chromosome into excellence in brewing Grantham leads the way.
So how did I pass into beer-vana? It began when I met Sara Barton of Brewster's Brewing Company and expressed my desire to brew beer in a brewery rather than something made at home that only a best friend would drink under duress. Her two word answer was 'Do it'. So I did. In collaboration with two other beer evangelists, Marverine Cole, and Shea Luke we devised a recipe, and arose at dawn on brew day and headed up to Grantham.
Brewing is a form of extreme cooking - choosing and preparing the ingredients; pouring them into an enormous pan, and stirring the mixture using not a wooden spoon, but a rake; boiling the ingredients to extract flavour, and then doing the washing up - on a gargantuan scale. But unlike kitchen cooking the finished product takes a few weeks as it ferments and matures turning by magic into the world's favourite alcoholic drink - beer.
Don't bother to sign up for a gym membership - just work in a brewery! It's really physical work hauling around bags of malted cereal, and mixing it with water in the mash tun to create the wort (sugary water containing colour and flavour from the malt), sorting hops into buckets and lugging them up a ladder to be poured into the copper brewing kettle. Wait for a few hours until everything cooks and the brew is ready to dispatch into the fermenting vessels. Pour the yeast into a bucket with some wort. It needs stirring as it grows before your very eyes when the yeast cells devour the sugar and clone themselves trillions of times. Finally ascend the ladder and pitch the precious concoction into the fermenting tank. Now the yeast performs its miracle as it consumes the cereal sugars and converts them to alcohol and carbon dioxide through the gift of fermentation.
Medieval brewers called yeast 'Godisgood' because they did not understand what was happening during fermentation and assumed it was divine intervention. It's easy to understand why because this is the alchemy of brewing as water, hops, malt (and in our beer's case cinnamon, and Fairtrade cocoa) are transformed with the aid of a single-celled organism called yeast into something sublime.
But back to the prosaic aspect of brewing. The clean-up. This entailed lots of washing of vessels and floors, raking out piles of porridge-like malt from the mash tun, and then crawling into the copper to extract by hand thousands of steeped hop flowers. The spent malt and hops eventually ended up on a farm as livestock feed. Lucky cows!
At the end of brew day we gently tapped the fermenting vessel and said goodbye to the beer inside and went to the pub. A perfect end to a perfect day.
During the following weeks Sara sent thrilling updates on the progress of the brew using phrases such a 'terminal gravity has been reached' which in lay terms means 'the level of alcohol'; and tantalizing us with descriptions of its taste as the beer matured.
Now it is ready to drink and we're having a launch party in early March. Want to come? If you like Porter beers with added spice and chocolate then this is your beer. And the dream continues because a major pub-owning brewery is stocking it as a guest ale in a handful of their London pubs. So if you fancy a pint you'll have to push me and my brewing compadres out of the way at the bar because we intend to enjoy the memory of brew day until the beer runs out. Bottoms up!

Six ways for gardeners can survive winter with style.
Power through branches with ease.
This means they aren't quite the same as mung bean or alfalfa sprouts grown in a mason jar on your windowsill. Instead, these nutrient-packed young greens are harvested from seed sown directly into soil – either directly into a garden bed or into a container filled with potting soil. Micro-greens can be grown from any number of tasty edibles including lettuces, broccoli, beets, kale, chard, radish, cabbages, choi and more. But, stay away from plants like cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers; their green parts don't make for good eats! When starting a micro-greens garden, always be sure to select plants that have edible green parts.
One of the best ways to get a micro-greens harvest is to make them a part of your vegetable garden growing cycle. Generally, when we direct seed into a prepared vegetable bed, we sow more seed than we have room to grow. Seed is relatively inexpensive, while time is precious. By sowing more than we have room to grow, we plant an insurance policy that gives us greater promise at least some of those seeds will germinate and turn into the crops we desire. This also means we end up thinning out some of the sprouts to make room for the remaining crops to mature.
To begin, gently cultivate your vegetable bed soil in spring or fall when growing conditions are ideal for your selected crop. Sow seeds thickly and cover no more than about _" deep (or as per the seed packet directions). Water after seeding and keep soil consistently moist as the plants begin to grow. To thin out the seedlings, pull, pinch or use a pair of micro-tip snips, thinning out the young sprouts shortly after they emerge from the soil – about 7 days or so depending on the crop and environmental conditions.
You may find that you need to thin your crops several times as they grow. In the first thinning, you may be harvesting very young sprouts with just one pair of leaves. Later, you may need to thin again as the plants develop more leaves – known as "true leaves". These slightly older sprouts with one or two sets of "true leaves" are true micro-greens. And, as your plants continue to grow, you may find yourself snipping out even more of the young, maturing plants, which may then provide you with a great baby greens salad. Each of these phases of early growth is edible and nutrient-rich.
If you don't have room to grow row upon row of crops, consider a micro-garden of micro-greens by growing in a pot. Fill a wide-mouth planting container with potting soil*. Moisten the soil thoroughly and allow the pot to drain. Then, sprinkle seeds thickly across the soil. Pat firmly. Sprinkle a light layer of additional soil over the seeds, covering them no more than about _" deep (or as per the seed pack instructions). Mist gently to moisten the added soil. Avoid using heavy sprayers or watering cans, which may bury or overflow your carefully seeded container. Place your container is a warm, sunny location. Check it daily to be sure the soil is remaining evenly moist. Water only if the soil is not moist.
Within a few days of planting, your first crop of micro-greens will be ready to harvest. When harvesting container-grown micro-greens, snip out large bundles of the young plants rather than thinning the plants as you would in a garden bed. This way, you can reseed the entire micro-greens containers every week or so to keep those tasty sprouts coming all season long.
How to Use Micro-greens in the kitchen: Micro-greens should be washed and dried like any freshly harvested vegetable. If your sprouts are pulled from the ground, be sure to remove and discard any soiled roots. Once cleaned, micro-greens can be whirled to smoothies or mixed in a quick stir-fry for a bit of fresh, zesty crunch. Or best of all, serve them raw on a sandwich or tossed into a fresh salad.
*When starting from seed in a pot, I prefer to use a sterile, soilless mix for seeding any crop. Although micro-greens are harvested before many pests and diseases will attack them, using a sterile potting mixture further reduces the potential for young sprouts to succumb to pest and disease issues.

Yesterday morning went to the church for a "Gal's Retreat" - a very good friend led it. First we met in the sanctuary for a time of Bible study and sharing. Then to the Parlor for a "coffee break. Some had brought some tasty goodies - had half of a peach muffin - sooo gooood.
Then we did a craft - we made beaded bracelets - well, Lisa showed us how - similar to macrame - only a couple actually finished. The rest of us brought them home to finish. Really cute. May make some with my granddaughters. Then back to the sanctuary and another friend shared with us. It was about 12:30 when I finally left.
My friend Elaine was there so of course we had to chat for a bit in the parking lot afterward.
My daughter had called so went by her house for about an hour - they have 4 new kittens - so very cute. Then to the grocery store for a few things for supper. Home to fix meatloaf and mashed potatoes for my boy for dinner (this is their favorite). We watched "Somewhere in Time" - an older Christopher Reeve movie. Had been a long time since I had seen it and had forgotten most of it.
Finally to bed about 10:30. Al in all - it was a good day!
Had a good visit with Elaine at the coffee shop yesterday. She got her hair cut - a pixie cut - so cute on her. Then did some grocery shopping.
Today am just doing some cleaning - mopping, vacuuming, have another plant to get into the ground.
And, am reading the second book of "The Hunger Games".
Just have to share this - received from a friend.
"Were we directed from Washington when to sow and when to reap, we should soon want bread" Thomas Jefferson
Just found this quote on the web! Looks like we have arrived.
Today is Vicki's Birthday! Just wish I could be with her.
She has been talking to her sister occasionally on the phone - and yesterday she asked to talk to me. So the nurse called me and put Vicki on the phone. She sounded tired - said she had had a hard day. But, It was so good to hear her voice. She understands that I live in Pendleton and it is a ways from Salem where she is. Just makes me want to go see her - perhaps later this summer. Not sure - I am just not up to driving that far anymore.
My sister sent me a box of pictures that Mom had - many of them were of Vicki as she was growing up - many that I did not have. So am scanning them and will send a few at a time to her.
Just have to add a couple of pictures:
That Baby is 55 today!!

Five Key Take-Aways from ITSMA's Annual ConferenceBy Dave Munn
With all of the uncertainties that come with change, there is one sure way for marketing organizations to be successful: focus on driving more value. At this year's conference, we examined three aspects of marketing value: value to the business, value to customers, and individual value. From the variety of discussions that took place during conference, this subject clearly struck a nerve.
Delivering business value seems to be a challenge that is top of everyone's list. If it isn't already at the top of yours, it should be. By way of some conference highlights, here's why.
1. To demonstrate marketing's value to the business, we need to measure results, not effort. And to measure results, we need to change the way we report. As Mani Dasgupta, CMO of Capgemini North America, said in one of the Marketing Leaders Panel, there is no such thing as a bluebird. If marketing laid the groundwork, then it is up to us to prove it.
In one of her sessions, Julie Schwartz, ITSMA's SVP of Research and Thought Leadership, shared how best-in-class marketers set quantifiable performance targets that link marketing activities to the business outcomes that senior executives care most about. Amdocs's CMO, Chris Williams, exhorted us to measure business results, not marketing effort, by aligning metrics to the buying cycle.
Nick Panayi, director of Global Brand and Digital Marketing at CSC, discussed measurement at length. His first step was to make the CSC content management system the center of the marketing universe. If it wasn't in the system, it didn't exist. This allowed Panayi and his team to develop an accurate dashboard to report marketing results to the executive team. Among their most important reporting metrics are the lead handoffs from marketing to sales. If sales-accepted leads drop below 80%, there was a problem. Dashboards provide a critically important rearview mirror; but for Panayi, predictive analysis is the true power.
2. The prevalence of data, largely in the form of digital footprints, is dramatically changing our ability to measure and predict behavior. As Malcolm Frank, EVP of Strategy and Marketing at Cognizant Technology Solutions, made clear in his compelling talk, this is not just the next chapter of corporate IT but a fundamental shift in the way we do marketing. Frank shared some great examples from his new book, Code Halos, of just how detailed and surprising the information from our virtual selves can be: Facebook knows that you're falling in love before you do. And if you listen to Garth Brooks but don't vote Republican, you're in a very small minority.
This is just as important in the B2B space. Companies that are able to understand and engage their buyers by interpreting code halos will create a competitive advantage. Marketing must develop a robust analytics capability to do so—and to keep our companies on the right side of the coming industry rift.
3. Understanding buyers and personalizing their experience are critical to engaging them. Adele Revella, CEO of the Buyer Persona Institute, reiterated common wisdom: buyers purchase from providers they trust. To build that trust, we must understand how, when, and why buyers make a purchase decision. With these insights, marketers are able to create value propositions that are more persuasive and able to engage buyers.
Once we can anticipate the needs of buyers on their journey, we can personalize their experience both offline and online. Meagen Eisenberg, VP of Customer Marketing at DocuSign, talked us through some impressive results of using 15 marketing tools to create a personalized digital experience for target buyer segments. For Eisenberg, success is the ability to attract, engage, convert, and measure. In two years DocuSign's sales pipeline grew 22%, the average time visitors spent on the website increased over eight minutes, pageviews increased over 300%, and click-through rates tripled. Even better, she and her team now have extensive data for predictive analysis to further refine and target their messaging.
4. We must refocus what we do to be meaningful and relevant to our chosen audiences. As Frank put it, "I don't care if my next-door neighbor knows who Cognizant is, but I do care if my 10,000 potential customers know." This isn't just about understanding their motivations and predicting their behavior. It's about having something relevant and meaningful to say to them. When Chris Goodman took on the role of CMO at KPMG, one of his priorities was to make sure there was meaningful and relevant thought in all of the thought leadership.
ITSMA's Schwartz told attendees thought leadership really does matter during the buying process. In our recent survey of how buyers consume information, more than 75% of respondents indicated that thought leadership was critical or important in both considering providers and short-listing them. In fact, the most highly rated source of information on industry trends and solutions was provider subject matter experts (SMEs). When information is meaningful and relevant to buyers, they listen. This, surely, is what helps us to distinguish ourselves in what HCL CMO Matt Preschern called "the sea of sameness."
Two great ways to connect with our audiences in a compelling way are storytelling and Account Based Marketing, as Bev Burgess, SVP, ITSMA Europe, and Jeff Sands, VP, ITSMA, respectively, demonstrated in their workshops.
5. It's time for marketing to rethink the model. Expectations of what marketing can deliver are high, but gone are the days when we could just ask for more budget and headcount to fulfill those expectations. As John Lenzen, CMO of TCS, said, "The role of marketing hasn't changed, but the tools have."
The impact of these new tools is so significant that it is changing processes, and even people, along the way. Larry Weber, author of The Digital Marketer: Ten New Skills You Must Learn to Stay Relevant and Customer-Centric, told attendees that the CMO's new job is to improve digital engagement. Between DocuSign's 15 automation, lead-nurturing, reporting, and analysis tools and CSC's 47, it's clear that digital marketing tools and data analysis skills are not just hot, they are critical.
Pegasystems CMO Robert Tas said the biggest part of a marketing leader's job is change management. That's especially important as he, like many of us, helps his company transition from focusing on products to focusing on customers. In his three-year journey to building a world-class marketing team at KPMG, Goodman focused a lot of energy on his marketing team, making sure team members were both students of the firm and students of the industry.
Perhaps Weber summed up best where we are: "We've finally recognized that marketing is a verb, not a noun, and that it's never done."
8 Important Facts about Complex, High-Consideration B2B Solutions PurchasesBy Julie Schwartz
If you want to know how enterprise buyers in senior decision-making positions make purchase decisions for large, complex consulting and technology solutions purchases, then those are the people you have to ask. And that is exactly what ITSMA does. Every year for more than 20 years, ITSMA has been researching the purchase decisions of buyers who fit these criteria:
Based on the latest round of 436 interviews in seven countries, here are the facts:

Rethink Customer Retention: Your Bottom Line Will Thank YouBy Nicole France
It's common knowledge in the services industry—in any industry, really—that keeping an existing customer costs far less than finding a new one does. This is true whether your business is focused on discrete projects or long-term contracts. New cloud-based business models draw the direct link between financial success and maintaining your customer base even more sharply into focus.
For Salesforce, the unique pressures of a subscription software model posed a serious challenge: how to increase client retention rates. The company's novel solution involves a healthy dose of analytics, out-of-the-box marketing, and a complete reinvention of its services division. The results have been happier customers and an impressive reduction in attrition.
By abandoning traditional notions of technical support and maintenance services in favor of delivering customer success, the software provider defined a new type of solution offering. In doing so, it also united an essential trifecta—sales, services, and marketing—within a coordinated team with a common goal and incentive: ensuring customers get measurable value and return on their investment in Salesforce.
While there are comparatively few technical implementation requirements for Salesforce customers, they do need support in the business and change-management aspects of rollout, adoption, and effective use. These services, along with proactive client engagement, form the backbone of the new services division, called Customer Success Group (CSG).
CSG marketing's role has been communicating the value of what are typically optional services in helping to achieve business outcomes. This is more than just a name change, so conveying that message effectively within Salesforce and to customers has been critical to CSG's impressive results.
Equally important are the powerful analytical tools the company has developed based on years of historical metadata. By analyzing these patterns, the team has built predictive models that can identify accounts at higher risk of attrition. These early warnings allow account teams to take corrective action and greatly improve the chances that clients get value from their contract and want to renew. More broadly, the tool can help the team proactively support clients throughout their experience with Salesforce, from implementation through ongoing use.
To learn more about the journey and results of Salesforce's Customer Success Group, read the ITSMA Case Study From Support to Success: Salesforce's Radical Approach to Customer Retention.
Research Highlight: For ABM to Deliver on Its Promise, It's Time to Get SeriousBy Bev Burgess
A decade into Account Based Marketing (ABM), it's time to approach it as a strategic business initiative if it's going to deliver on its promise. Results from ITSMA's 2014 ABM Benchmarking study suggests that ABM remains too tactical and marketing-centric, lacking the gravitas and momentum of a true business change initiative.
A few highlights from the study:
ABM is an approach that consistently delivers significantly higher return on investment than other marketing investments. And yet, 10 years after widespread adoption, ABM hasn't been scaled across the business to deliver the big results that we know it can. As 2015 approaches, marketers must work to educate their business leaders, sales leaders, account management communities, and HR talent specialists on what ABM is, how it can drive business growth, and how to establish it properly as a business—not just marketing—initiative.
Ask ITSMA
Each month, ITSMA receives a number of queries through Ask ITSMA, a resource designed to give members a quick and easy way to get insight on important services and solutions marketing questions they face. In this column, we will publish some of our favorite questions, along with excerpts from our replies.
Q: We in marketing are trying work more closely with our sales team to help them sell more effectively—without spending a lot of money. Do you have any examples of where this has been done well?
A: Yes, indeed we do. Infosys has a great story about how marketing, sales, and SMEs are working together.
Here was the problem: according to sourcing advisors, Infrastructure Management Services (IMS) accounted for 20%–25% of the market and offered attractive growth potential. But this wasn't the case for Infosys; the company needed to sell more managed services. The question was how.
Infosys could have attacked the problem by spending more money on marketing to potential clients to stimulate demand. Instead, the team did some analysis. This revealed that the real problem wasn't market awareness but the ability of the sales team to sell IMS. There were a few big roadblocks for sales:
The marketing team concluded that existing sales kits and collateral designed for prospective buyers were not enough.
Marketing took a new approach: sell IMS to the sales team first. Working with SMEs and IMS champions within sales, the marketing team:
The initiative has been a great success, resulting in several large IMS wins and an expanded pipeline. The company's IMS revenue is now tracking closely to the market rate—and all for very little external budget. It's a great example of what happens when marketing, sales, and SMEs join forces.

Recent ITSMA Thought Leadership
Increasing Engagement and Expansion with Current Accounts
In this web briefing, we explore how marketers are engaging executives within their current accounts to build advocacy and increase business. Drawing on ITSMA research and the experience of leading marketing organizations, we'll share the breadth of engagement programs currently in practice, along with new thinking on how to deepen current relationships, establish and expand new ones, and ultimately win more business in your current accounts.
ITSMA Online Survey: Marketing to Existing Customers: Engagement, Expansion, and Advocacy
Eighty-one percent of survey respondents say customer engagement is important to business strategy. Although nearly one-third of marketing budgets go toward this goal, 70% of respondents are not satisfied with the results they are achieving. While marketers face a number of obstacles as they improve their customer engagement programs, the success of the high-achievers among survey respondents shows these challenges can be overcome. In this survey report we examine common practice in customer engagement programs, best practice, and the results of both. This report offers recommendations for improving and expanding customer engagement programs to deliver maximum results.
ITSMA's Framework for Effective Customer Engagement Programs
ITSMA's Customer Engagement Framework helps you to assess the current performance of your existing customer engagement activities and highlights areas for improvement and further development. With this tool in hand, you can take steps to measurably increase the return on investment of customer engagement—and do so in far less time than relying on trial and error alone.

You can say that WebRTC is a kind of a hobby for me. I am not "practicing" it at work, where VoIP is far from my daily tasks, but it does intrigue me in an intellectual level – probably because of my days at RADVISION. This is why I decided to write a series of posts about WebRTC, and this is the place where it all comes together: most of the posts are in this blog, but there are some that "roam" in other places, where I guest posted about it.
