It’s all about the virus but there are other things going on in sales and marketing news this week. We went 50/50 on our favorite articles. One opinion piece on sales channels and direct-to-consumer we can apply to B2B sales, two articles on the coronavirus: one on planning and one on newsjacking, and one article on sales and marketing living in harmony. It’s a great time to be generating leads because plans are being scrutinized and forecasts changed. Enjoy!

n this week’s lead generation news, we take a look at markets. Virtual markets that may or may not exist, arbitrage markets in food and the data behind a trending meme. I try not to get stuck on some of these stories, but the virtual designer clothes thing. . .if that takes off I may just give up this work thing because it may mean I don’t understand markets at all.
