Past Drilling Down Newsletters

< the newsletter is no longer published >
< See the Marketing Productivity Blog >

The monthly newsletter is delivered every four weeks and  highlights new articles, must read case studies, hard to find customer retention metrics, and questions from newsletter subscribers and site users.  People dig it, as you can see by reading the testimonial below!

"Your newsletter is the single most valuable tool of its kind for one simple reason:  Your detailed examples on various issues e.g. Recency, that we can instantly apply to our business.  For a small company with limited resources this is huge.  Throw in all the great articles and you have a winner!  Your articles have really helped me a lot, from a purely educational standpoint as well as sound business/marketing advice."
