Essential Elements of World-Class Lead Gen

I've been working on a new presentation that organizes what I see are the critical elements of lead generation and have outlined the four (4) primary areas I feel these elements should be derived from.

Program Excellence, or the focus on the experimentation and testing of your program tactics that's needed to find out what really works which are further validated by...
