CNet had a nice story about UPS that caught my eye – UPS turns data analysis into big savings. What was interesting about this to me was not just the use of telemetry (which is interesting enough), but the way analytics acts as a massive value multiplier for this kind of data. In the article you see this great quotes:
My old buddy Jim Sinur is presenting on one of his favorite topics – why rules are important business rules in BPM. Rules are moving, he says, inside-out in process. As processes become less structured and more fluid, the rules go beyond the “happy path” and start to guide the process dynamically. Business rules are a growing market, though the number of rules vendor is decreasing, as platform and BPM vendors acquire rules vendors. Moving increasingly also to rules management, with rules for different scenarios, for instance.
Last week I explained how to Monitor, Listen & Respond to social media comments as part of my overview of the Media140 conference. This week, we will look at how social media sites can be used as an effective crisis management tool.
The popularity of Facebook is growing. With 400 million users spending an average of almost an hour per day on the site, marketers are clamoring to invest in advertisements, Facebook Fan pages, custom applications, contests and more.

Keeping tabs on your social media connections these days is like bar hopping, without the cocktails or pool tables with stained felt.

I have been talking more to the people who are doing the work of social media so the readers of Marketing Pilgrim can step back from the news and the theory to get some feet on the street perspective. More and more those feet on the street are C level executives who are embracing social media to brand themselves and their companies. Kent Huffman of Bearcom Wireless has put together a list of these socially active CMOs on Twitter.
One of these folks, Ted Rubin (@tedrubin), exemplifies the energy and effort that is required to make a place for oneself in the social web for business. I interviewed Ted by e-mail recently to learn about the who, what, where, why and how of his social media efforts as the CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) of the Eyes Lips Face (e.l.f.) Cosmetics line. I challenge you to find a more active C-level marketer out there.

It is the holiday season where you should be putting more fun in everything. Rex Lee did a nice blog post, Maximizing Business Value from Enterprise 2.0 through Fun & Motivation.I did a FastFoward post on it but could not resist from including it here and adding some more as I think the message is essential. Rex begins with scientific premise that providing financial rewards to people for knowledge-based tasks is counter productive.
