3 ways to align marketing & sales during COVID-19
COMMENTARY 3 ways to align marketing & sales during COVID-19 By Allan Rubin May 27, 2020 Even in the best of times, sales and marketing alignment is not easy.

Marketo claims alignment makes companies 67 percent better at closing deals while generating 209 percent more revenue from marketing. Unfortunately, we’re not experiencing the best of times.
The Winning Pitch: How to sell your marketing plan
COMMENTARY The Winning Pitch: How to sell your marketing plan By Allan Rubin Nov 19, 2019 With a historic baseball season in the books and Washingtonians still reveling in their first World Series title, many in and around the Nation’s Capital have turned their attention to annual planning. For business-to-business (B2B) or business-to-government (B2G) marketers, it’s a time filled with vendor and stakeholder meetings, death by PowerPoint, personnel mapping, and prognostications about the future.
A Microscopic Model of Rate and State Friction Evolution
Whether rate- and state-dependent friction evolution is primarily slip-dependent or time-dependent is not well resolved. Although slide-hold-slide experiments are traditionally intepreted as supporting the Aging law, implying time-dependent evolution, recent studies show that this evidence is equivocal. In contrast, the Slip law yields extremely good fits to velocity-step experiments, although a clear physical picture for slip-dependent friction evolution is lacking.
Does fault strengthening in laboratory rock friction experiments really depend primarily upon time and not slip?
The popular constitutive formulations of rate-and-state friction offer two end member views on whether friction evolves only with slip (Slip law) or with time even without slip (Aging law). While rate stepping experiments show support for the Slip law, laboratory observed frictional behavior near zero slip rates has traditionally been inferred as supporting Aging law style time-dependent healing, in particular from the slide-hold-slide experiments of [?BeelerTW94a].
Intermittent tremor migrations beneath Guerrero, Mexico and implications for fault healing within the slow slip zone
Slow slip events exhibit significant complexity in slip evolution and variations in recurrence intervals. Behavior that varies systematically with recurrence interval is likely to reflect different extents of fault healing between these events. Here we use high-resolution tremor catalogs beneath Guerrero, Mexico to investigate the mechanics of slow slip.
