Dave, Thanks for your thoughtful post - I agree that there is a difference as you analyze how B2B and B2C products are sold, but some of this complexity that we have created in B2B is not necessary. We hear from IT buyers that they don't want to have a lot of meetings and complicated use cases - they want to hear stories, see fast prototyping - a more agile approach to selling and marketing. Certainly we are not there yet in many cases, but as a sales consultant I'm sure you are looking at this as an opportunity to innovate even the complex sales model. Looking forward to seeing more of your thoughts in future articles. Jane

Sarah,I like the generational point on B2B versus B2C - there is a complexity that Dave mentions that we create and that we hear CIOs in particular saying they don't want that any more. Perhaps the next generation will find ways to simplify the approach. I'll look forward to seeing where it all lands!Jane
