In 2003, Dreamforce was a modest trade show in its first year. Just over 1,000 professionals gathered in a San Francisco hotel to discuss recent Salesforce innovation and best practices in sales and SaaS. Today, Dreamforce is the gold standard of professional conferences, taking the Bay Area by storm for one week, every year, and featuring speakers so influential that ... Read More

Digest... 1. Connectivity These technologies are also opening up new opportunities for ways consumers can communicate, connect, and collaborate in the workplace.
2. We’re in the age of the customer – “Power to the Consumer” >> The customer journey is comprised of a thousand moments. Marketers now need to figure out which moments have the most value and how to relay messages at those key moments. >> Personalization – customers want a personalized experience. This means they want the right content put in front of them right when they want it, with the least amount of distractions.
3. Mobile is the now and the future
4. All business is social business – Social media is here to stay and now plays a critical role in all business. Social has become the preferred medium of communication for consumers and businesses to connect, share content, and communicate.
5. Email is still King - Although social media seems to be the popular form of communication today, email is still king. Predictions are that global email users will expand to over 2.8 billion by 2017. Email is still king for B2B marketers even though email addresses churn at higher rates than social media handles.

FWIW, coming from Eloqua's POV from attending Dreamforce.

According to an industry source, Marketo had not been invited back to attend this year's Dreamforce conference. This highlights the fact that Marketo is now a direct competitor to Salesforce's own marketing automation platform, ExactTarget. That's a big change from how Marketo used to be seen in the marketing automation space.

Marteq's insight:
Marketo does not have Dreamforce listed in their site's Events section. Perhaps they were discouraged, or perhaps Marketo made the decision not to participate (Dreamforce is damn expensive, and SFDC will push Pardot over all others).

The mobile inbox, email deliverability, and closed-loop reporting were all big focuses of the Salesforce Dreamforce conference in 2013. Intermediate/ Digest... 1. You should care about the mobile inbox It may not come as much of a surprise, but almost 50% of all email opens are now happening on mobile devices. Yet I am still seeing emails that are not optimized for viewing on a phone. Always test your email on a mobile device prior to sending. Most online mobile phone simulators are not 100% accurate, so be sure to test using the real thing.
2. Email deliverability is up to you I mentioned this in a previous blog post, but it was a huge theme at Dreamforce - if you want your emails to be delivered to the inboxes of your recipients (rather than their spam folders), you need to be producing emails that are engaging.
3. Prove it's working With the ability to fully integrate websites, marketing automation platforms, and CRM systems, closed-loop reporting is now more achievable than ever. You can trace the new business you win all the way back to the lead source and the specific campaigns that influenced the new customer. These systems come at a cost, but the reporting you get will enable to to see the return on that investment.

Marteq's insight:
These three themes are relatively simple, and as a marketing technologist you are already keenly aware of what needs to be done. Knowing how involved SFDC is with each breakout session, I'm not surprised that the topics are not terribly difficult.

Marteq's insight:
Many of you are preparing for the greatest show on trade show carpet, so here's a bit of a backgrounder. FWIW: my first Dreamforce was 2006 as an exhibitor, and I can't fathom what the 2013 attendance figures will be.
