The document discusses key questions to consider when evaluating a marketing intelligence platform. It begins by explaining that most marketers still rely on multiple disconnected data sets and analytics tools that are difficult to use. The top questions to ask are: 1) Can the platform consolidate all marketing data? 2) Can it clean and standardize the data? 3) Can it deliver accurate customer segmentation based on long-term customer behavior? For most companies, a third-party cloud-based marketing intelligence platform is the best option to gain valuable customer insights.

Quality Patents: Patents That Stand the Test of TimeAurora Consulting
Is your patent a vanity piece of paper for your office wall? Or is it a reliable, defendable, assertable, property right? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent simply a transactional cost and a large pile of legal bills for your startup? Or is it a leverageable asset worthy of attracting precious investment dollars, worth its cost in multiples of valuation? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent application only good enough to get through the examination process? Or has it been crafted to stand the tests of time and varied audiences if you later need to assert that document against an infringer, find yourself litigating with it in an Article 3 Court at the hands of a judge and jury, God forbid, end up having to defend its validity at the PTAB, or even needing to use it to block pirated imports at the International Trade Commission? The difference is often quality.
Quality will be our focus for a good chunk of the remainder of this season. What goes into a quality patent, and where possible, how do you get it without breaking the bank?
** Episode Overview **
In this first episode of our quality series, Kristen Hansen and the panel discuss:
⦿ What do we mean when we say patent quality?
⦿ Why is patent quality important?
⦿ How to balance quality and budget
⦿ The importance of searching, continuations, and draftsperson domain expertise
⦿ Very practical tips, tricks, examples, and Kristen’s Musts for drafting quality applications

Are you interested in dipping your toes in the cloud native observability waters, but as an engineer you are not sure where to get started with tracing problems through your microservices and application landscapes on Kubernetes? Then this is the session for you, where we take you on your first steps in an active open-source project that offers a buffet of languages, challenges, and opportunities for getting started with telemetry data.
The project is called openTelemetry, but before diving into the specifics, we’ll start with de-mystifying key concepts and terms such as observability, telemetry, instrumentation, cardinality, percentile to lay a foundation. After understanding the nuts and bolts of observability and distributed traces, we’ll explore the openTelemetry community; its Special Interest Groups (SIGs), repositories, and how to become not only an end-user, but possibly a contributor.We will wrap up with an overview of the components in this project, such as the Collector, the OpenTelemetry protocol (OTLP), its APIs, and its SDKs.
Attendees will leave with an understanding of key observability concepts, become grounded in distributed tracing terminology, be aware of the components of openTelemetry, and know how to take their first steps to an open-source contribution!
Key Takeaways: Open source, vendor neutral instrumentation is an exciting new reality as the industry standardizes on openTelemetry for observability. OpenTelemetry is on a mission to enable effective observability by making high-quality, portable telemetry ubiquitous. The world of observability and monitoring today has a steep learning curve and in order to achieve ubiquity, the project would benefit from growing our contributor community.

2. Startup Sales
Stack Report 2017
Who Should Read This Report?
This report is meant to serve as a guiding framework for anyone evaluating sales solutions. Whether sales,
marketing, customer success or management, if you are thinking of using or buying software to optimize
customer acquisition or management processes with software, this report should be relevant. I hope it will also
be insightful for any parties interested in learning more about the sales & marketing automation software
landscapes, from investors to advisors to prospective employees.
Why Should I Trust Your Opinion?
The Bowery Capital team thinks about the startup sales stack on a daily basis from three separate angles. First,
sales software is core to our portfolio support platform: we work closely with every one of our founders to build
an optimal enterprise sales infrastructure from the ground up. Second, it factors heavily into our diligence
process: sales tools are critical to keeping acquisition costs low and sales cycles short, and we always evaluate
how a startup has (or plans to) leverage them as they go to market. Third, the sales stack is an area of potential
investment for Bowery Capital: we focus exclusively on enterprise software and sales automation has become a
sub-sector in its own right over the last 5 years. Our team, therefore, has developed a unique view on the startup
sales stack and we are exposed to innovative new solutions continually. As a result, we thought it would be
helpful to aggregate our team's and founders’ learnings into a piece that other startup stakeholders can use as
they seek to build out or strengthen their own sales stacks. In 2015, I released the second edition of the report:
the Ultimate Guide to Startup Sales Tools. This third edition, represents an upgraded and expanded report that
we hope will serve as a good framework for evaluating sales solutions at any company. All this said, we’re
always learning and look forward to your feedback (which you can submit via this TypeForm).
What’s New?
This year, we once again revamped the categories to better reflect the growing variety of solutions available. I
hope the 20 categories herein will provide a good taxonomy for the ongoing evaluation of this market. In advance
of this year’s version, we also conducted a Sales Stack Survey to add buying & usage trends to my analysis.
Finally, G2 Crowd joins us as a data partner this year to ensure accurate user review info across all categories.

11. Startup Sales
Stack Report 2017
Sales Stack Survey Key Takeaways
● The Sales Stack landscape remains extremely fragmented: tools are growing in both volume
and functional specificity (more point solutions than attempts at larger platform businesses).
● Even the least fragmented categories (CRM, Live Engagement, Lead Engagement) have
high-following alternatives & active detractors.
● The categories survey respondents were most familiar with (i.e. indicated they knew of the
most tools within the bucket) were Lead Gen, CRM, Lead Intel, Outreach Management, and
Email Intel tool.
● Survey respondents identified these categories as “most important to their sales effort”
(Perceived Importance): Customer Success, Lead Gen, Lead Engagement, CRM, and
Marketing-Sales Alignment.
● Interestingly, CRM & Lead Engagement were the only 2 categories where Perceived Importance
scores aligned somewhat with Usage and / or Net User Score. (1)
● The #1 tools in these categories achieved a Usage rate amongst respondents of >60%: CRM,
Lead Engagement, Content Sharing, and Data Automation.
● Lead Gen was by far category respondents were most familiar with: despite having 19 tools
included in the survey, average awareness by product was 78% (direct comparison isn’t apples
to apples, but for context the average for CRM was 40%).
● Lead Gen, however, was by far the category with the lowest NUS scores (1)
with an average of
(60) vs. the next lower category’s (Predictive Analytics) score of (12); for context, the top 10
categories all had a NUS of > +20; Lead Gen products has an average “would not use” rate of
78%, over 30 points higher than the 2nd worst category, Contracts & Billing.
Notes:
(1) Affinity was measured by a variant of the NPS calculation as applied to usage data collected
in this survey, “Net User Score.” NUS = # respondents that currently use the product + # that have
used it before - # that would not use it / # that knew of the product at all.
