Two New Innovations

It may be the last, lazy week of summer, but we've been toiling away here at MarketingProfs. In fact, we have two new innovations to introduce.

1. Our new home page. When one of my industry colleagues saw our new home page at www.marketingprofs.com, he said, "Wow! It looks like you guys have rolled out a lot of new stuff!"

Actually, we haven't. But the new home page redesign highlights some products and services that were previously buried in the site, like the Get to the Po!nt "Quick Reads" as well as the hottest articles. Check it out and tell me what you think.

2. Our new iPhone application. MarketingProfs CEO Allen Weiss wrote last week about the new MarketingProfs iPhone app that lets you breeze through the latest marketing digests from our popular Get to the Po!nt newsletters. Now you can get our Get To the Po!nt newsletters delivered right on your iPhone, by following the download link here.

As Allen wrote, "Then, the next time you're standing in line or stuck on hold, you can stay current with great bits of marketing advice."

Enjoy the new home page, the iPhone app, and the last bits of summer, of course!
