			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new blog. Why? To share my ideas with the world. To use as input in social networks. In order to find like-minded, or people I can help with my knowledge and experience. You could see it as &#8216;personal branding&#8217; or &#8216;personal content marketing&#8217;. You can also see it as &#8216;knowledge in the cloud&#8217;. Knowledge multiplied by sharing it. Collecting what others already thought about. Linking what others might not have seen.</p>
<p>Collecting information is not enough. Information is not knowledge unless you can apply it, can help people with it.</p>
<p>As an <a title="About me" href="/blog/en/about-me/">experienced Marketing Professional in the B2B market</a> I&#8217;d like to help companies become successful by focusing on the right customers and by designing their commercial processes to focus on the fulfilment of the needs of those customers.</p>
<p>I do so by working towards a structure of lasting, committed relationships between organisations and customers in a way that adds value for both parties and also for all other stakeholders. That I call <a title="Connective Marketing" href="/blog/en/connective-marketing/">Connective Marketing</a>.</p>
<p>Some time back in 2006-2007, I also started a blog: <a title="My Blog about Marketing and Web 2.0" href="http://ableijs.blogspot.nl/2006/11/welcome-to-my-blog.html" target="_blank">My Blog about Marketing and Web 2.0</a>. That was too much technology oriented. It also didn´t last for long. Since then I´ve learned that the rapid technological changes of this moment can only exist as a result of changing needs of people and society. It is the job of Marketing to provide insight into the changing needs and to define answers thereby creating added value.</p>
<p>This site is not finished yet. We&#8217;re still working on a suitable design. But I did not want to wait until everything is perfect. Let&#8217;s start!</p>
