Good Morning. Rick Miller, SVP Creative Automation in Hillside Illinois. I have been with Creative Automation since 1986 with a background in data management technolgies, database services, business intelligence services, printing and mailing services.

Through our proprietary products including Data Conversion/Auto Clean, Business Profiler, and Merge/Purge we assist B2B marketers in developing data management strategies to support their database (customer, private prospecting, etc.) and marketing initiatives. In addition to this, we utilize licensed products such as NCOA, DSF, DPV, LACS and SuiteLink to maintain accurate address data for their customers and prospects.

I am interested in hearing from others within the group that may have questions regarding these types of services that I can offer insight to as well as opportunites to establish new business relationships with organizations that may have a need for our services.

Good morning, and I hope this holiday season finds all of you well ...

I am a seasoned audience development professional and former BPA auditor with 10+ years of media/publishing industry experience (with 5 years in B2B specifically), from start-ups to established publications. I possess extensive knowledge of BPA/ABC and postal requirements and circulation fulfillment systems, and have managed critical business operations – including budgeting, enhancing revenue and cutting costs, marketing, circulation statement and audit preparations, vendor relationships and negotiations, partnership building, list acquisition, and staff training.

Presently, I am Audience Development & Advertising Manager for Hospital Pharmacy journal, a widely-respected B2B controlled circ pub with a BPA-audited subscriber base of about 34,000 domestic USA. I am making a strong push for the journal to go digital, at least partially, as well as to establish a presence in Canada in order to exploit new advertising opportunities there.

Hello:

I supply research for the industry - corporate, financial, editorial, etc...

What resources do you use for decision support? Gale Directory? BPA? IFPP?

I have a Resource Guide on my website - and I'm always eager to update it...

Hi,
I am setting up my own company that serves high quality editorial consultancy for any product (be it publications, newsletters, blogs or websites). So if you have cost-cutting on mind, and yet looking for newsletter being made, blogs to be written, articles to be edited, layouts for e-editions, please contact me.

Hello B2B Media Pros.
I'm Glenn Karaban, president of Karaban Labiner Associates (KLA) in NYC. We're a custom publishing and advertising sales rep firm that has been in business 41 years. I serve as the publisher of a B2B magazine that KLA custom publishes as well as the sales director for a team of reps that sells ad space for B2B, Association, and consumer publishers. I also consult with publishers on growth opportunities, efficiencies, media kits, trade shows, etc.
Needless to say, I've seen the publishing industry from many different perspectives. Today's publishing landscape is changing daily, even hourly at times, and I'm interested in discussing how we are all rethinking and managing sales objections, cash flow, expenses, ad/edit ratios, forecasts, growth opportunities and more.

I have worked in trade, consumer and professional magazines and originally started out as a newspaper reporter. Now I run a small publishing company. I am here to learn from others, share experiences and, like others, work out how to forge ahead or at least stay with the pack in this revolutionary and recessionary time.

B2B editing and publishing has been my trade since 1983; I spent a year with Medical Economics Co. (short-lived startup monthly) and five years with the American Hotel & Lodging Association. Next, I joined the Uniform & Textile Service Association, serving suppliers of industrial workwear, as editor and publisher of the UTSA monthly. Now UTSA is about to close its doors and it feels a lot like 1984 again. I've learned a lot about service industries and see great potential for the various trades in that sector to share business information.
