This week I am bringing you some solid, evergreen marketing tips and methods that genuinely do work and are proven to do so by some of the biggest companies/marketers out there.

I’m doing so as a response to the furore over a certain launch which was based on what turned out to be falsified results this week. I missed most of it but have been given the salient details and all I can say is that’s why I prefer to stick to – and teach – the evergreen tried and true.

Shiny and new is irresistible, I agree, but all too often that’s all it is – style over substance. The lesson here is to remain focused and not be diverted by the allure of the apparently all too easy…because often it’s anything but…

With that in mind, let’s start this week with an excellent case study on marketing methods used by some of the biggest SAAS companies in the world. SAAS stands for Software As A Service and it is one of the most lucrative business models around so you can be sure these people really know their stuff:
