The Darwinian evolution of CRM in "socialized" marketing

Just read a piece (see link at the end of this post) claiming that the CRM is dead and that with the advent of the "social customer" there would be a new way of seeing marketing through 5 Ps, the most important of which would be people. The article titled "CRM is dead: Do You Know the Five Ps of Marketing?"claims that CRM is for the dustbins of history. I respectfully disagree with that.

In fact CRM is more alive than ever with ZohoCRM, Salesforce and Siebel powering an increasing number of commercial groups in established companies as well as start-ups worldwide. From sales force automation to marketing campaigns to cross company project teams and integrated marketing analytics, these platforms are providing the means to an end: building rapport with customers who are increasingly social.
In fact:
(1) you need a clear objective in terms of quality, reach, intensity, frequency and intimacy in customer relationships,
(2) you have more than just customers and prospects to deal with especially if you embrace a vision of influencer marketing
(3) you need the technical means to achieve the above and these technical means are CRM systems

Bottom line: today's marketing and sales main challenge is to distinguish between means and ends, using the former to achieve the latter. Increasingly social customers create new requirements in terms of goals and imply the use of older as well as emergent tools and practices. No point in being too categoric about the dustbins of history: the new never fully eradicates the old but rather amalgamate to create something stronger than either of the initial components. That's Darwinian in its truest form and it applies to technology as well.

Google's speed mission continues with Public DNS

That's quite big as a move! Google is increasingly a dominant provider of network based resources: infrastructure as a service, processing as a service, storage as a service, software as a service, messaging, instant messaging, VoIP telephony, unified messaging... But they're smart enough to see that network based must have local relays, which is why there's Gears, Chrome OS, Android...etc. One has to admire their strategy and crucially its execution.

This move to provide DNS service is a very important one because it's about Google taking a key position in one of the core infrastructures of the web. A position from which they can become indispensable and from which they can effectively influence the future of core technologies powering the Internet. The next step will be for Google to offer different levels of service one of which could be completely secure high availability DNS service for business critical applications, something that would make sense as the network is more and more the computer. Sun was way too early with their vision so someone else gets to do something good with it. There are more casualties in first movers than unfair advantage achieved by being a first mover.

Socialized Media: The Powerful Effects of Online Brand Interaction

Blogs Brian Solis analyzes in a very compelling way the value of online interactions about brands. Taking things from his angle, there is more than simply a case for online social interaction and for fully fledged social marketing (not just social macomms): there is a good basis for demonstrating ROI and analytics beyond mere lists of metrics and figures.
Definitely worth reading. This has important implications on the future of marketing.

not sure that the criteria on which people vote for companies pitching at #plugg are that clear: biz potential, quality as invest, pitch?

agree - but again disadvantage for non EN speaker RT @rcockx: SenseBoard, Gunilla Alsiö Wearable Data Entry Platform. Nice to see some hardware #plugg

good stuff RT @Toon: plista.com personallization & recommandation to find your way in the labyrint of the internet #plugg collaborative filtering for the masses

agree if disruption is the main criterion RT @gleonhard: #plugg these 4 I really liked, so far: myngle, jinni, bubok, mendely - all have large disruption potential imho

having spent some time doing web analytics work I think http://ping.fm/FA82b are onto something good #plugg

voting on the companies that gave us the elevator pitches at #plugg - won't say what although I doubt I can influence results! LOL :D

curious to learn more about Glowbox whose mission @jcaudron says is "focus on social, not technology" #plugg

RT @rcockx: RT @simonmc: All "English as mother tongue" people have unfair advantage in European VC elevator pitches #plugg

good potential for bubok presented at #plugg, but they need more energy in the presentation

RT @ramonsuarez: #plugg bubok.es Self publishing system spanish market. Long tail. B2C mainly.authors make 3x more € than in traditional editorial schemes

RT @ramonsuarez: #plugg nervous presentation of Apsynth. develop applications online
