MY PASSIONS
MY WORDS
I’m quite sure this comes from my mind…
Blogs!
Marketing & communication is not simple neither complicated. My blogs are about anything that is related to offline and online marketing & communication, from strategic point of view. Of course, with an omni-channel setting in mind and written as simple as possible. This can be my own opinion and vision, but also comments on various subjects or readings taken from other sources.
By writing blogs and reading articles I learn from other people´s views, visions, opinions and knowledge. At the same time I hope the same happens to other people who come across my website or articles. Go ahead and use my articles freely and as much as possible. However, the credits are mine
To work internationally, you can go a long way with good positioning and proposition. Country differences usually follow in details such as price, product specifications, location and promotion. With a good international B2B marketing plan you can implement this well and flexibly. Moreover, the practical implementation is a piece of cake thanks to many tools such as DAM (digital asset management), a good CMS and an email platform that can handle this perfectly.
Het zal mij niet verbazen als menig marketingafdeling te horen heeft gekregen dat de marketingbudgetten teruggeschroefd worden voor de rest van het jaar. Kijk daarom eens wat vaker in de marketing voorraadkast! Content in B2B is veel meer in huis dan je denkt…
Het zal een wellicht eeuwige strijd, nou ja op zijn minst een leuke discussie zijn tussen een B2B en B2C marketeer: in welke mate loopt B2C marketing (nog) voorop ten opzichte van B2B? Als je daar überhaupt van kan spreken nu H2H als credo steeds meer in opkomst komt.
Picture this: you’re standing in the clubhouse of a nicely groomed infamous golf course, overlooking the slopes and fairways, the perfect greens, admiring the challenges offered by bunkers, trees and the rough. All you can think of is, how will I be able to fight the elements, play the game and win at the end of the day.
In search of excellence, ook voor marketing en communicatie! In search of excellence… Geen idee hoe ik erbij kwam, maar een aantal weken geleden dacht ik terug aan mijn studietijd in de VS. Een mooie tijd, die ik overduidelijk niet vergeten ben. Niet alleen de leuke hoogtepunten kwamen naar boven,Continue reading
Growth? Go back to the basics! As I am writing this now, it’s been several weeks since I was confronted with my own pitfalls. In my quest for a new move in my career, I got lost in an overload of gathering information, sharing and writing by myself. In thatContinue reading
The #IoT (Internet of Things); Thoughts from a marketing point of view This article was published on Linked too. You can find it here. The ‘Internet of Things’ is one of the developments I have been following the last couple of years, basically since I published an article named “IContinue reading
B2B marketing predictions 2015 revisited This article was also published on LinkedIn via this link. The other day I was triggered by an article published on b2bmarketing.net. You can find it here. The author, or the website in general I guess, asked what changes people expect with regards to B2B marketing?Continue reading
Recently LinkedIn added 2 infographics on SlideShare showing characteristics of the Dutch and the English on LinkedIn. For your information, both are considered to be important user groups for LinkedIn thanks to a large audience having a profile on LinkedIn.

Content creation – One size fits all, or ‘situation’ driven? I know how you can personalize messages in e-mail, direct mail or even on a website by using click, web visit or buying behaviour, or anything related to this. However, when it comes to content creation, sharing and optimizing information,Continue reading
OK, it’s been a while ago since I wrote my last blog. My apologies, it’s been busy and then you will have to set priorities. Easy as that. Anyway, here’s my next blog. As I said in my last blog, I was supposed to find multi-channel platforms that provide meansContinue reading
My apologies beforehand, as I seem to stick with social marketing at the moment. But then again, it’s hot, it’s happening and you can’t avoid it. And as pointed out by Marketing Facts in their article “Consumenten zijn social media moe” (sorry, it’s in Dutch, but it is based on Gartner’s research “Gartner Survey HighlightsContinue reading
Yes, I admit it, I like facts! That makes me a curious marketeer, in a healthy way. This was already apparent when I read the encyclopedia as a kid. Not just to know something, I just read it like a reading book. I still have the urge to read everythingContinue reading
I recently came across this overview of ‘all’ social media channels more or less available to the world wide web now. At first I considered it a funny overview stating the general belief of non-believers. Later, when I reviewed the image and had my mind set on it, I could see the message.Continue reading
