Maximizing Lead Generation: The Complete Guide for B2B Marketers

Published in July 2011 by Pearson’s QUE division. Soup-to-nuts instructions on how to generate, track and manage sales leads. Includes a full discussion of long-standing best practices, plus the latest tools and techniques like social media and marketing automation.


I’m a big fan of Ruth Steven’s writing, so I eagerly awaited the arrival of her new book ...I wasn’t disappointed. The writing style is engaging, almost conversational, yet conveys a wealth of useable information... This was a fun, yet informative read where I think the fresh graduate and marketing guru will each walk away with something new.

Published February 2005 by Thomson. This book is targeted to business marketers who are looking to get the most value out of their trade show and event marketing programs.

In just the first hour of reading your book, I came to the realization of all the mistakes we've been making for the past eight years, and recognize several strategies that we could incorporate immediately to improve our results. Trade Show and Event Marketing is invaluable and will be used extensively by SCSA.
