"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
The Challenge
SnapRetail, a marketing automation solution provider for independent store owners, struggled with what many companies face – a sales and marketing disconnect. While marketing was producing a lot of high-quality content to support sales conversations, sales had no way of easily knowing what content was at their disposal to use for lead nurturing and educating prospective buyers.
SnapRetail tried using both its intranet and Google Doc folders to maintain marketing content, but neither tool proved to be very efficient for marketing to keep updated and sales to keep informed. Salespeople were using out-of-date content that they had saved to their computers, and marketing would have multiple sales reps coming to the team on a daily basis asking where they could find specific pieces of content. Marketing also learned that sales reps were creating pieces of content on their own, not knowing that marketing had already produced something very similar. Not only did this take away from time that sales reps could have used to focus on closing more deals, but it also potentially compromised the branding standards that SnapRetail had put in place.
Another challenge the company faced was the inability to provide appropriate tracking links with content. Tracking the source, medium and campaign for each content piece was a key need for SnapRetail's marketing efforts. Zach Lancia, senior marketing analyst at SnapRetail, desired a way to bridge this sales and marketing gap, ensure the sales team was capitalizing on the content available to them to bolster business development efforts, and maximize the ROI on budget spent developing content.
The Solution
Lancia was introduced to Postwire when he received a Postwire page from TimeTrade, a Postwire client. He realized that Postwire would enable him to easily create a complete content library that all of the sales reps could leverage. This would help to make the relationship with sales more cohesive internally. In addition, it would help ensure that the content being used would be consistent and current for all communications and bolster not only sales but also content tracking efforts, as relevant tracking links could be included with each piece of content. By tracking prospects' content consumption (who's viewing what, when), marketing gains valuable insights to which content items are instrumental in driving more revenue.
With Postwire, content including whitepapers, videos, how-to guides, one-pagers, website pages, demo links, etc. is posted and stored in one central repository, managed by marketing and easy for both marketing and sales to access and use. Sales reps are alerted to new content available and can easily pull relevant content for their prospects and create personalized Postwire pages to share with them, using the templates that marketing has created when desired. It takes sales staff just minutes to create a Postwire page for prospects, but recipients think it took hours. And, sales reps have commented that they customize their follow-up conversations with prospects based on what pieces of content they have viewed on the Postwire pages created, making the discussions more relevant.
Andy Weier, inside sales, said, "Postwire has made it easier to gauge interest among prospects. With other tools in place, we typically only see whether or not they open our emails, but with Postwire we're confirming that they're going a step further and clicking through to view a particular page. This not only makes the follow-up conversation easier and more specific, but it allows us to eliminate time spent making investigative calls to colder prospects."
Lancia commented, "Postwire allows marketing to maintain control over our company's branding and voice, while allowing the sales team to flex their creative muscles in designing their Postwire pages for prospects."
The Results
Productivity Gains– SnapRetail is seeing benefits from Postwire on both the marketing and sales fronts. From the marketing perspective, it is saving the team a lot of time, as they don't need to dig through their files to find the documents that sales may need. Also, not only does Postwire make it easy for marketing to disseminate content, but it also ensures that each content piece that marketing and sales distribute is trackable, and is helping marketing identify which pieces of content resonate most with prospects.
Increased Visibility– Lancia says, "We've discovered that our pieces about our Marketing Consultants and our calendar feature are most enticing, with 20% of prospects who have viewed either of those content pieces resulting in subscribers. This has clarified for us that we should further enhance our Marketing Consultants content piece to make it even more engaging and that it should become a standard piece of content offered on all Postwire pages to prospects, for example."
Greater Prospect Engagement– From a sales standpoint, they have content when they need it and feel they are creating better relationships and driving more engagement with prospects through the use of Postwire. In fact, one salesperson noted that three hours after a Postwire page he sent was viewed by a prospect, that prospect engaged with the company. Also, the company is scheduling more demos with prospects than ever before, since they are able to include a "schedule a demo" link right in the Postwire pages they are sending, making it easy for prospects to schedule at their convenience.
Personalized to Pain Points-- Weier concurred, "In addition to facilitating easier/cleaner transfer of information, I think Postwire has really impacted the development of my relationships with prospects. It allows me to customize the way I package and present our product for each individual prospect. They see the thought behind the information shared, and it helps them to know I'm listening to them. It really helps me make them feel special, and shows them how we can solve their problems."
Weier continued, "Postwire has positively affected my sales process by allowing me to have more meaningful exchanges with prospects. It's a great way to quickly and cleanly get information in front of our potential customers without committing them to a lengthy phone conversation or demo -- that is very valuable for SnapRetail in particular since our prospects are so busy running their businesses on a daily basis."
Improved Marketing and Sales Alignment– Postwire has had a significant impact on marketing and sales alignment as well. "Before Postwire, our sales team was at the mercy of marketing to provide content. Now, it's easy for marketing to distribute content to sales and to empower each salesperson to pick what's relevant to share on a personalized page that he or she quickly creates for prospects. Postwire has enabled us to create better alignment between marketing and sales and drive engagement with prospects," Lancia noted.
Weier agreed, "Postwire makes the exchange of information between marketing and sales fast and easy. We have access to a library of shareable content that is relevant and polished, allowing us to take broader marketing messages and isolate topics of interest from those campaigns to tailor our communication for each unique prospect."

This is such a crazy complex issue.
There are so many uninsured, so many denied coverage and so many like me, who can afford great insurance, only to have preexisting conditions within my family be excluded from coverage.
Political views and fears aside, what should our priorities be in addressing this as a church? As believers?
Government may help, but what's the role of local churches in their communities?
Our church in Houston is wrestling with this and beginning to form a plan to engage now rather than waiting on others to serve those in need.
The document below helped in at least sparking conversation and outlining priorites for me.
Thoughts? And not just thoughts on whether the bozos in the senate are gonna fix this -- more on how you and i can respond at home in our neighborhoods and cities.

For Kate
In the last year, I've seen first hand the extremes.
Miracles. Death. Suffering. Celebration.
Close friends, neighbors and friends.
It's been the fullest year of life on earth for me in both directions.
We're close to finishing the new rsb album and many of the songs reflect the heights and depths of our humanity and my encounters over the last year.
'Miracle' is one of these songs. It says:
"Have you ever stared death in the face?
So close you could hardly breathe
and you cry out to God for mercy to prevent the fall
There are very few words to say
when you can't see another day - for my heart to beat again
When the whole world seems to turn its back on me
All alone out on the sea
I need a Miracle! I need a miracle
When life don't seem to make sense at all
I believe you hear me when i call
I need a Miracle? I need a Miracle!'
Tonight, Join me in praying for a beautiful little girl, Kate McRae.
Pray and believe for a miracle, one that only God, the great Healer, can deliver.
Please watch and follow the links provided at the end of the video to get updates on Kate and her family in Phoenix.
with love,

Housing is true to the description, with a spacious field around a nice warm house. Kind and attentive hosts to complete everything. Our family has been a great success, I highly recommend this accommodation.Amelie2016-11-02T00:00:00Z
We had several contacts with the owner who always answered and always was helpful and attentive. The area is very quiet and well located because the lake is nearby. The house is consistent with the description, very well equipped and allows family gatherings. Too bad we could not enjoy the large garden because of the weather.Myriam2016-12-26T00:00:00Z
Nice house in a lovely location! Especially recommended for families with children (large garden for playing, and close to the lake with a nice sandy beach and life guards).rutger2016-07-31T00:00:00Z
We stayed with 4 adults and 4 children (1-8 years) in the summer for a week in the house and have a nice holiday in Mesnil-Saint Père. The garden of the house is huge and beautiful and there are many games for children (swing, slide, paddling pool etc.) and adults (badminton net, table tennis) and ample seating (table, chairs, hammock) available. The lake is well within walking distance. However, the bedrooms are small (this had us Etienne also notify in advance) and the house is very loud.Christina2016-08-07T00:00:00Z
very charming and ideal home for those who love to spend time in a spacious garden.Farid2017-04-04T00:00:00Z
Beautiful house 25 minutes from Nigloland where we were had a great time (even a little short). Etienne we waited for our late arrival. again thank you for hospitality, kindness ... he let us use the fireplace and the children were delighted. House well equipped, spacious with beautiful garden ... we hope to return again in the summer.Amy2016-10-26T00:00:00Z
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. The house is charming and cozy, and the garden is very big and beautiful. The house is on a dead end street so no traffic. In addition, it is very close to the lake where it is good swimming and plenty of opportunities for other water recreational boats such as canoes or paddle boats. In the house are the necessary facilities, such as kitchen utensils, pots and towels plentiful. In the garden there are several places to sit in the sun or shade, and there is lots of toys for children and a barbecue. We would not recommend actually with 10 people staying here. There is only one bathroom and there is not enough seating for so many men, and the house is noisy. With a smaller company you sit though perfectly here. In addition, a small negative the adjacent holiday. We were unfortunate that some nights very noisy group stayed which we suffered from some noise. At about 20min drive from Mesnil-Saint-Père, the town of Troyes. This is really a must! Very clean nice town with lots of medieval architecture combined with modern influences. Additionally Troyes has a lot of food and beverage options to multiple squares or very cozy narrow streets lined with medieval lopsided half-timbered houses. Recommended is also sure to drive (part of) the Champagne route. In glorious weather this is a great daytime activities. Pretty villages with a church more beautiful than the other, scenic views and lovely roads to drive. Resume. When you are looking for a spacious, quiet location, but enough recreational opportunities in the (direct and / or near) want environment, Etienne beautiful cozy house will be in Mesnil-Saint-Père certainly not disappoint.Ron2016-08-25T00:00:00Z
We enjoyed the location of the housing (800 m from the beach) and with good weather that we enjoyed (! 35 °), we especially loved the land with large trees and equipment: children and adult games , small children's pool, barbecue, outdoor seating, high chair ... the kids were thrilled !! the proximity to the beach and Troyes (-1/2 hour drive) are additional assets (+ bike trail) little "flat": the rooms are not large, and if adults are complete, it may interfere to put the suitcases in the rooms.Anne Marie2016-08-29T00:00:00Z
