Experts are still trying to understand the true energy cost of training and deploying AI, but there is no question we must act now to scale this technology responsibly and minimize environmental impacts.

No marketing technology series would be complete without discussing the ever-important measurement of success or KPIs. I have been writing about KPIs and ROI my entire career, with the topic becoming especially hot and heavy during the dawn of social media.

TikTok implemented new restrictions on ads targeting U.S. teens and introduced AI disclosure requirements for advertisers. Why we care. These changes aim to protect younger users and increase overall ad transparency, potentially impacting how advertisers reach and engage with TikTok’s audience. It’s also an example of a social platform choosing to build stronger guardrails for user privacy rather than having those guardrails imposed on them by legislators.

Sources have told Bloomberg that Alphabet’s potential deal to acquire HubSpot has been shelved. “Parties didn’t get to due-diligence stage in deal talks,” said the report. Early rumors about the talks seemed to solidify at the end of May, when CNBC’s David Faber reported the companies continued to have discussions and an all-stock deal was on the table.

As someone who makes a lot of in-person and online transactions, I’m amazed at how much payment processing has evolved. If I’m scrolling Instagram and see a skincare product I’m interested in, I can go to the brand’s shop and make a purchase without even leaving the app. Not to mention how much tap-to-pay transactions have sped up my coffee runs. No matter what kind of purchase I’m making or whether it’s being made online or off, I know that the payment process is taken care of.

From time to time, you’ll see a story about what is and what is not a customer data platform (CDP). It’s a legit question. If I buy something that’s labeled as soap, I want it to do what I expect soap to do. In the same way, the label “customer data platform” should include some things and exclude others. Companies shouldn’t call their product a CDP if it doesn’t fit the requirements.

Deal slippage is a huge issue for all sellers, but also for buyers. Let’s dive into what drives deal slippage. Most deal slippage is not really deal slippage.

This is something that I don’t get to do very often. While I am frequently implementing and training businesses on how to use Nimble CRM, I rarely (like never) have a chance to use it with a client in a practical application. This year I was tasked with hiring and then training a sales rep for a local company. I know the company, its people, and their industry very well.
