I DON'T want marketing spam, I do
want news stories, product
reviews, people I know leaving or
starting there.
I want to know when a
company launches a new
product. I want any
financial
announcements from a
company.
In your own words, please describe the kinds of company updates that you would
be most interested in receiving.
Updates that include large strategic & people shifts in
the company. New product launches, discoveries of
new technologies / partners with technologies. Large,
unexpected financial changes. High profile talks by
key leaders, i.e. CEO, President, CFO, CMO's etc.
I like to stay in touch
with the industry. New
tips- tricks, and
people moving
around.
