StubGroup is a Premier Google Partner, ranked by Google in the top 1% of all Google Partners worldwide for performance and customer care. I invest my time and energy into equipping our team to provide best-in-class service to our clients. https://stubgroup.com/ We managing marketing for a wide variety of companies, from publicly-traded companies to small local businesses. We're able to see what's working across a variety of verticals (ecommerce, lead gen, B2B, B2C, local services, etc.) and customize our strategy to each client and their unique strengths. Team Building: I'm always on the lookout for stellar talent that will complement our team and strengthen our ability to serve our clients. Speaking: I've taught digital advertising classes to more than 100,000 students, and make frequent appearances on podcasts in the marketing and business space. Writing: I'm a published author and write about marketing for sites including Call Tracking Metrics, DataFeedWatch, Shopper Approved, Swydo, etc. I live and breathe PPC, and I could talk with you for hours about campaign types, bidding strategies, keyword structure, and so on, but what really excites me is figuring out how to use those technical abilities strategically for each client's unique scenario. That's especially true as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, and the rest of the PPC channels automate more and more of the work that specialists, agencies, and in-house teams have traditionally done manually. Smart advertisers who understand when to trust automation and the best way to use automation to accomplish their unique goals are the advertisers who are going to win.
If artistic painters can decide prices for their work, why shouldn't filmmakers and video content creators? https://vidafair.com/
VidaFair is a new pay-per-rental video monetization platform based on fair pricing and transactions between creators and consumers. VidaFair allows video creators to set their own fee for 24-hour video stream rentals of their content. Video viewers pay the content creator fee and a small fee to VidaFair, without being asked to subscribe to anything, ever. Creators and viewers get the safety and security of the PayPal payment processing.
We do believe content creators should set their own pricesJust like painters, photographers, interior decorators and a whole host of other creative professionals who set prices for their work, we believe film and video producers should have the freedom to dream, create and then charge what they see fit. Content creators know best the costs, time spent and market demand for their work.
We do respect and compensate creatorsVidaFair represents a significant paradigm shift from other platforms, where content creators can only ever receive a tiny fraction of the proceeds for their work, or are charged platform fees based on a percentage of rental price. We've been content creators ourselves.
We do respect and protect video consumersYour viewing habits are no one else's business but yours. We accept no corporate sponsorships, no data sharing arrangements and no advertising. Our revenue model is simple and clear -- reasonable fees to host and stream video which are a function of file size, not the creators' prices. Nothing else under the radar, over the radar or otherwise. Sometimes a service that's marketed as "free," isn't as free as people think.
We don't own anyone's contentSome very well known video streaming platforms bury tricky copyright transfer language in long, complex "Terms of Service" agreements. At VidaFair, by contrast, all content remains the property of the content creators. We will never assert ownership of any film or video, ever.
We don't waste your timeDo you really want to watch advertisements? Or have them interrupt your film or video? We don't. Nor do we think your time is "free." Other platforms surprise viewers with advertisements they neither want, nor expect. On VidaFair, we don't sell your time to outside groups or companies through ads.
We don't run other businessesWe don't run search engines, email services or marketing campaigns. We don't send ads to creators or viewers, or sell information to anyone about viewers' preferences.
And it goes beyond just a matter of personal privacy. In a broader way, we believe more content platforms will always be healthier than fewer, because a social media landscape of very few extremely powerful behemoths poses societal risks.
We don't offer, nor allow subscriptionsWe believe subscriptions can sometimes be a slick way customers get charged for services they don't use. At VidaFair, every streaming video rental is specifically authorized. Since there are no subscriptions on VidaFair, there's never such a thing as "forgetting to unsubscribe."
No VidaFair transaction ever automatically repeats. You decide every purchase on the VidaFair platform. That's how we want to be treated when we use an internet site.

Buyer Personalization Drives Revenue Generate more qualified leads that close and upsell faster from each buyer or customer interaction. https://winalytics.com/ According to Gartner, Forrester, and McKinsey, 75% of B2B buyers expect deep personalization, and companies that get this right grow 2x faster than their peers. Easy to say, harder to do. Buyer personalization means not product pitching but telling a personalized story about value in each buyer interaction. Top sales teams understand this is only possible with shared sales playbooks to capture and share best practices for personalized messaging. Top marketing teams tell the same story about value across their website, content, campaigns and sales conversations. Brent Keltner, Ph.D. is founder and President of Winalytics LLC, a go-to-market- and revenue acceleration consultancy. He is also author of The Revenue Acceleration Playbook. Winalytics helps clients reach their top growth potential by shifting from product-driven conversations to authentic conversations that anchor on buyer-defined value. Before starting Winalytics, Brent spent more than a decade as a revenue leader in enterprise to early stage companies, including Kaplan, Eduventures, Plus Delta Partners and CollegiateLink. He began his career as a Ph.D. social scientist and spent 10 years conducting qualitative research interviews at Stanford University and the RAND Corporation.
