Some insurance companies close track day loopholes
2008-10-21 03:32:00 In the NY Times Oct 17th: NY Times article Bad news for everybody - and of course the dunderheads at the insurance companies don't realize that track days make most of us better drivers. Unfortunately, inevitably, we've seen a lot of kid stuff at track days. There are a certain class of kiddies whose poor judgment has caused them so many accidents on the street, dirt, and on the track that they are not insurable by mainline insurance companies. Inevitably, those people's poor records (and their big whining mouths) are now taking track days from the rest of us.

Structuring Channel Discounts for Software and Technology Companies
2008-09-09 00:44:00 Selling through sales and distribution channels of various types is very important to many software and tech companies. Yet channel programs, and specifically discount structures, are often thrown together quickly and haphazardly, without looking at any real hard data. Let's examine some of the key items it's advisable to consider, when structuring a channel discount program:Market NormsThe absolute first place to start when considering channel discounts is to survey the SPECIFIC market that you are entering. By this I mean look at similar products through the EXACT profile of channel partners you are considering selling through. For example for consumer software, retail margins of 15-18% are common, whereas for a specific VAR segments the discount norms may be in the 25-40% range. If your discounts fall too far below the market norm, your program will likely fail. If discounts are set much higher than the market norm (without good reason), your company will be leaving considerabl...

US Drug Companies Abuse US Consumers
2008-09-02 07:53:00 The latest death toll figures from Hurricane Katrina can be seen on this website here. The famous Russian neo-Nazi video is on this blog here.Updated September 2:In the comments section to the The Market Virus post, James Schipper notes: Drugs are not a natural monopoly, so why are pharmaceutical companies making such large profits? Answer: patents. Once a pharmaceutical company has a patent on a drug, it has a monopoly for several years. The reason for this patent system is that it is thought to encourage research and thereby allow consumers to gain access to new drugs.There is no doubt that a lot of new drugs are coming on the market, but whether the patent system ultimately has more advantages than disadvantages is hard to say. What is certain is that it keeps drug prices high and also encourages wasteful research for near-duplicates.If company A develops a new drug against, say, headaches and acquires a patent on it, then company B can't compete directly against it by selling t...

Mortgage Lead Companies with Sub Prime Mortgage Leads
2008-07-15 12:27:00 If you are a loan officer or mortgage broker on the market for sub prime mortgage leads be sure to take your time and choose your mortgage lead company wisely.One of the most important things you will want to know about the mortgage lead company is how they acquire their mortgage leads.Why is this important?The importance of the mortgage leads origin all depends on the type of mortgage lead you are looking for,If you are looking for inexpensive sub prime mortgage leads that are inexpensive and can be bought in bulk than the history of the lead becomes unimportant because the mortgage lead would not be inexpensive unless it was dated and had been sold multiple times to loan officers and other mortgage lead companies.

Integrating the Marketing and Engineering Functions at Technology Companies
2008-07-08 23:09:00 In most tech companies, Product Marketing and Product Development/Engineering are managed separately. There is usually a VP over the Product Development function and another over the overall marketing function, which usually includes future product marketing/planning.While this is certainly an appropriate way to organize a tech company, there is a great danger in one are when it comes to these separate operating "silos": the planning of new products.I have a particularly strong opinion on this topic, with an extensive product marketing background and also having worked as a product developer earlier in my career (albeit in a non-tech business).With respect to current products, the silo approach isn't much of an issue. The day-to-day activities of the marketing and engineering departments are very different, and can be managed separately quite successfully.It's in the future product area that things can get messy. Product Marketing and Product Development both have a key role to pl...
