B2B marketing campaigns are notoriously hard to measure. Most marketers are underestimating the ROI of their campaigns, and measuring quantity over quality. Here are three things marketers should stop doing if you want to improve ROI.
Building a technology stack, or a combination of software products and programs used to create your marketing capability, is often an overwhelming task for marketing professionals. There are so many solutions, products and providers to choose from — and you don't want to spend money on a technology that will have negative consequences down the road.

Die Güns () ist ein rund 72 km langer Fluss (mit dem Zöbernbach rund 95 km) im mittleren Burgenland sowie im westungarischen Komitat Vas (Eisenburg). Die Güns entspringt etwas nördlich von  Bernstein im Ortsteil Redlschlag im Bernsteiner Gebirge. Sie erreicht bei Rattersdorf ungarisches Gebiet, durchfließt die Städte Kőszeg (Güns) und Szombathely (Steinamanger) und mündet schließlich nach Sárvár (Kotenburg oder Rotenturm an der Raab) in die Raab (ung. Rába).

Der Flusslauf der Güns weist zwei Besonderheiten auf. Nach etwa 12 km fließt bei Lockenhaus der Zöbernbach zu. Obwohl dieser bis zur Einmündung in die Güns eine fast dreifach längere Fließstrecke zurücklegt und eine deutlich höhere Wasserführung aufweist, behält die Güns ihren Namen bei. Knapp vor Szombathely und in etwa auf halber Flussstrecke, wird ein Großteil des Günswassers in die nahe Perint (dt. Prenten) abgeleitet.

Die lateinische Bezeichnung der Güns lautet Sibaris und war namensgebend für das römische Sabaria, das heutige Szombathely. Die heutige Bezeichnung Zöbern dürfte eine Abwandlung von "Sibaris" bzw. "Sabaria" sein.

Nat Robinson '18 (MBA'07)
Nat Robinson's sense of humor is reflected on the front of his 2016 book, Creating a Cash Cow in Kenya, in which he relates his seven-year experience of starting and running a micro lending company in Nairobi. The cover features a Kenyan man transporting a cow on a motorbike.
Robinson is now a third-year student at Vanderbilt Law. But his path to law school started in Kenya, where he first traveled in 2008 as a consultant for the Grassroots Business Initiative of the International Finance Corp. After earning his MBA at Vanderbilt's Owen Graduate School of Management in 2007, Robinson had joined Accenture, a D.C.-based consulting firm that the IFC hired to research companies it might invest in. He jumped at the chance to work in Africa and quickly fell in love with Kenya. He also identified an urgent need for a locally based system of financing that would allow Kenya's farmer to lift themselves out of poverty.
When his eight-month IFC assignment ended, Robinson stayed in Kenya—and set to work recruiting investors willing to provide $5 million of seed funding for his venture. It was a tough sell. "Investing in African agriculture is high risk, and you get a low return," he said. Only 10 of the 150 potential investors he cold-called initially invested in his micro lending firm, which he called Juhudi Kilimo, which means "effort in agriculture in Swahili. But the firm's early success attracted other investors, including the Rockefeller Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the Soros Economic Development Fund, Deutsche Bank and Kiva.org. Juhudi Kilimo won the Social Entrepreneur of the Year Award at the 2011 World Economic Forum and provided more than 50,000 loans work $30 million between 2009 and 2016. "We financed the purchase of 23,000 cows by some of Kenya's poorest farmers," Robinson recalled proudly. Scholar Kristiana Raube's case study, "Juhudi Kilimo: Designing Microfinance Staff Incentive Plans," [https://hbr.org/product/juhudi-kilimo-designing-microfinance-staff-incentive-plans-a/B5789-PDF-ENG ] was recently published in the Harvard Business Review.
But by 2016, Robinson "had reached a crossroads—I either needed to return to the U.S., or I would stay in Kenya for my entire career," he said. He returned to his hometown, Denver, and started studying for the LSAT. "Law school sounds like a non-sequitur," he said. "But I had often thought legal skills would be a huge asset."
Law school has energized Robinson. As a 2L, he traveled to Dubai with classmate Yalda Godusi '18 and Owen students Kayla Armgardt and Tori Samples to compete for the 2017 Hult Prize for social entrepreneurs. Their project, Hydrohaven, proposed deploying idle cruise ships to help resettle refugees from Syria and African nations. They reached the final round of the prestigious competition.
For summer 2017, Robinson secured a grant from the Turner Center for Social Ventures to fund the development of a secure mobile banking system refugees could use a cell phone to access. "Transporting assets safely is a major hurdle for refugees," he said. "They may pay smugglers to help them escape their country, and then they arrive in a camp or country where they have no identity, no assets and no credit history."
The Turner Center him assemble a team of two Owen MBA students and a graduate student at the Graduate Program in Economic Development (GPED), who traveled with Robinson to four continents and six countries to conduct market research. Robinson dubbed their start-up "Leaf," because it will offer "financial services beyond the bank branch." Leaf received $15,000 in additional support as the winner of the 36/86: Student Edition Pitch Competition in June. "Most of that money went to blockchain developers to build a test version of the technology," Robinson explained. Leaf is now competing in the final round of a Denver start-up competition for $100,000 of funding. His legal skills, he says, are an "incredible asset" to entrepreneurial endeavors. "Understanding how regulation works and operates is extremely valuable when you're creating businesses," he said.

Why Global Citizens Should Care
Hyperinflation and lack of physical cash has resulted in many Venezuelans without access to basic food and medical needs. You can join us in taking action on this issue and more here.
Venezuela's economic crisis will see a 1 million-percent inflation by the end of 2018, reports Agence France-Presse (AFP).
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) shared the warning in its updated regional outlook for Latin America on Monday.
Take Action: Call on World Leaders to Focus on Adolescent Girls and Improve Their Nutrition
"We are projecting a surge in inflation to 1,000,000 percent by end-2018 to signal that the situation in Venezuela is similar to that in Germany in 1923 or Zimbabwe in the late 2000s," said Alejandro Werner, head of the IMF's Western Hemisphere Department, in a statement.
The nation's financial collapse will increasingly spill over into neighboring countries, noted the report, and marks the third consecutive year of double-digit declines at three points worse than projected in May, amid falling oil production, according to IMF.
Venezuela has been caught in a spiraling economic collapse ever since crude prices tanked nearly four years ago and officials have neglected to enact economic adjustments.
"The collapse in economic activity, hyperinflation, and increasing deterioration in the provision of public goods as well as shortages of food at subsidized prices have resulted in large migration flows, which will lead to intensifying spillover effects on neighboring countries," Werner wrote in a blog post, reports Bloomberg.
Despite hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans suffering from hunger and price surges, President Nicolas Maduro continues to maintain that the crisis is a result of an "economic war" waged by his political opponents at home and abroad, noted Bloomberg.
"We expect the government to continue to run wide fiscal deficits financed entirely by an expansion in base money, which will continue to fuel an acceleration of inflation as money demand continues to collapse," added Werner in the statement.

Het gewonde hert (Spaans: El venado herido; Engels: The Wounded Deer) is een olieverfschilderij van de Mexicaanse surrealistische kunstschilderes Frida Kahlo. Ze maakte het in 1946, tegen het einde van haar leven, toen haar gezondheid achteruitging. Door middel van dit werk deelt Kahlo haar aanhoudende fysieke en emotionele lijden met haar publiek, zoals ze vaker deed.

Kahlo raakte op 18-jarige leeftijd betrokken bij een verkeersongeluk waarbij haar hele lichaam ernstig gewond raakte. Vooral haar ruggengraat, ribben, bekken, rechterbeen en buik waren beschadigd. Ze zou de rest van haar leven de wonden van dit ongeluk dragen. Tijdens haar herstel droeg ze een stalen korset, wat te zien is in haar late zelfportretten, zoals in La columna rota.

In 1940 trouwde Kahlo voor de tweede keer met de Mexicaanse kunstenaar Diego Rivera. Hun tweede huwelijk zag veel van dezelfde problemen als hun eerste, vol jaloezie, affaires en ruzies.

Mogelijk heeft Kahlo zich laten inspireren door Granizo, het hert dat ze als huisdier hield.

Het schilderij werd door Kahlo als huwelijksgeschenk gegeven aan haar goede vrienden Arcady en Lina Boytler.

Interpretaties
In Het gewonde hert deelt Kahlo haar levenslange splanchnische pijn met haar publiek. De pijn die ze vertegenwoordigt, is niet alleen fysieke, maar ook de emotionele kwelling die wordt veroorzaakt door haar relatie met Rivera. Ondanks de wonden op het lichaam van het hert, schildert Kahlo geen gezicht vol angst, maar een vol kracht.

Door het mannelijke gewei stelt Kahlo zichzelf in dit schilderij voor als deels mannelijk en deels vrouwelijk, en zowel als dier en mens. De rechter voorpoot van het hert raakt de grond niet. Mogelijk is dit een verwijzing naar Kahlo's eigen handicap. Haar rechter onderbeen werd geamputeerd. Op het moment dat ze Het gewonde hert schilderde had ze dan ook moeite met lopen.

Sommige kunsthistorici zien de mannelijke en vrouwelijke kenmerken als een verwijzing naar Kahlo's biseksualiteit. Anderen duiden het eerder als hermafrodiet of als de relatie tussen mens en dier.

Let LeBron James Play With Your Heart
By: Rachel Lu
LeBron James' return to Cleveland has the makings of a truly beautiful story.
Rachel Lu
Just like that, I've become a Cavs fan. I've never even lived in Cleveland. And I never particularly liked LeBron James.
In a way, that makes me an easy sell. Clevelanders will be warier of their returned hero, which is understandable. LeBron spurned them once, and their bitter feelings still linger. His departure for Miami four years ago was, to put it politely, "not handled well." Burned bridges aren't repaired overnight. And given that he's only on a two-year contract, it's entirely possible his return will end with a failed salary negotiation and yet another ugly departure. If I were from Cleveland, I would be writing a column entitled, "LeBron, don't play with our hearts."
I live in the upper Midwest. So I won't tell Ohioans how to feel. Or Floridians. For the rest of America, I think it would be best to let LeBron play with our hearts, just a little. It's easy to write athletes off as publicity-seekers, but tame those cynical impulses. This has the makings of a truly beautiful story, and I, for one, am rooting for the big guy.
A Rare Homecoming
It's actually startling how rare this is. We don't often see superstars returning to their hometowns at the height of their careers. Mostly, that just reflects the workings of the professional sports world. Few athletes are in a position to choose their own team. Even when they are, most of the greats have other priorities. They want bigger cities and better networking opportunities. They think about coaches and teammates and, of course, salary caps. Far be it from me to criticize the talented for looking after their own careers.
We don't often see superstars returning to their hometowns at the height of their careers.
It's still something of a flaw in the system. It's also one reason why I especially love college sports, where hometown heroes are a more familiar phenomenon. Nothing can quite match the thrill of watching great athletes compete for something bigger than money or bling. When the greats fight to win glory for their own people, that is truly a thing of beauty. For a moment, it almost that Homeric legends are coming to life before our eyes. The professional sports world doesn't give us that pleasure very often.
But even that hyperbolic description doesn't fully cover the significance of LeBron's return. For Cleveland, James is more than just a local boy who made very, very good. He's a shining example of what basketball has become in the early 21st century, which is similar to what boxing used to be a hundred years before. For the dispossessed, it's a ticket out. It's a big-time dream small people can grasp at. It's hope.
Basketball: A Ticket to the Big Time
Exceptionally few, of course, have the natural gifts to rise to James-like heights of athletic greatness. Many will be doing well if they graduate from high school and get a steady job. Even so, these Cinderella stories have real power. One of the most insidious things about a welfare-heavy and class-riven society is the way it teaches the poor to give up. Kids grow up seeing nothing but brokenness, and believe that that's all that awaits them. They live with a seemingly-pervasive legacy of despair and failure.
One of the most insidious things about a welfare-heavy and class-riven society is the way it teaches the poor to give up.
Any chink of light through that dark cloud is potentially a force for good. It cheers all virtuous hearts to see the humble exalted. Kevin Durant has long stood out as someone who made it into the stratosphere without forgetting the slums, and his story is truly inspirational. Now we see some evidence that LeBron remembers, too.
They're both incredible basketball players, but both have the potential to be even more. Of course, LeBron's return to Cleveland isn't truly a return to the slums. He's still rich, famous and well connected. But don't sell him short on that account. Practically every major city in America would have been thrilled to set out a lavish welcome mat for him, but he chose to face his past. Perhaps he has the foresight to realize that youthful vigor is fleeting and that, once it dies, he'll have decades more to live with whatever legacy he's made for himself. Perhaps he saw that there was a lot more honor to be won by bringing hope to Cleveland than by being yet another big-city celeb.
It's too early to tell for certain, but I for one hope it works out. For this next season, I'm rooting for LeBron James. I hope he wins glory and honor for his people. I hope little boys in Cleveland wear his jersey and speak his name with reverence for a century to come. I hope he gives them hope that this is still their America, and that somewhere, somehow, a window may be open for them.

Francisca Ballesteros (born 1969) is a Spanish woman who poisoned to death her first baby, a five month old daughter, in 1990.  Fourteen years later, in 2004, she killed her husband and second daughter because she had met a man on the Internet and wanted to run away from her parenting and marriage to be with her new found lover. Ballesteros then tried to poison her twelve-year-old son, although he survived after eight months of recovery. Following her son's poisoning Spanish authorities finally arrested her.  She was convicted on three counts of murder and one count of attempted murder and sentenced to eighty-four years in prison in 2005.

Biography

Francisca Ballesteros was born in 1969 in Valencia. A few years later, she moved to Melilla.

After marrying Antonio González Barribino, Ballesteros gave birth to a daughter, who she named Florinda. In 1990, Ballesteros suffered from postpartum depression and wanted to end her marriage, but she finally decided against it. She instead decided to kill her family and flee to Valencia. Ballesteros poisoned Florinda, who was only five months old, with Colme, a drug used to treat alcoholism. After the death of the baby, Ballesteros decided to wait to kill the rest of her family.

In 2004, 14 years after murdering her daughter, Ballesteros, who had met many men through the Internet, decided to kill the rest of her family, flee to the city where one of the men that she had met online was living, and marry him.

On 12 January 2004 Ballesteros killed her husband Antonio González Barribino with Colme and with the sedatives Zolpidem and Bromazepam. On 4 June 2004, Ballesteros killed her daughter Sandra with the same medications and attempted to kill her 12-year-old son Antonio, who was admitted to the hospital with poisoning on 4 June 2004. The autopsy of her daughter Sandra revealed that she had been poisoned.

On 7 June 2004 Ballesteros was arrested and confessed to the murders.

On 26 September 2005 Francisca Ballesteros was sentenced to a term of 84 years in prison.

Earning Trust
In this video, Celestina speaks to earning the trust and vulnerability of service users and facilitating support.
My very first volunteer training, one thing that one of the TRIP (The TRIP! Project) members said that really, really stood out to me is, once you get in this field, people will start telling you stuff about themselves that they don't tell anybody else, and so you have to like deal with that. And it's like a shocking thing that you're gonna have to deal with: people telling you all this, being very vulnerable to you. And yeah, that's definitely; I found that to be very true.
And I find that there's big success when somebody's being very vulnerable with you, that's successful because they're opening a door to allow you to help them. But I also think I should also rephrase that and say they're also opening the door to have faith in helping themselves because, ultimately, you're not helping them, they're helping themselves. You're just facilitating them to feel good enough about themselves, and confident, and enough in themselves to do so.

Avant-Garde: Inspired by Bauhaus
at the Autumn 2019 Decorative Antiques & Textiles Fair , 1-6 October 2019, Battersea Park, London
The Autumn Decorative Antiques & Textiles Fair returns to Battersea Park London for its third outing of the year, from 1-6 October 2019. With over 160 exhibitors on two floors, the Autumn event is a sell-out. The Decorative Fair is the interior trade's favourite period design show, with a cornucopia of specialist dealers in decorative antiques and design, twentieth century classics, and accessories, of every era from early Georgian to post-modernism. Works of art are offered dating from antiquity to the contemporary.
The centenary year of the School of Bauhaus provides the theme for the 2019 Autumn Foyer Display, where avant-garde 20th century designs will take centre stage. The School generated a rich variety of artistic movements during its years of productivity, and its' students experimentations inspired diverse developments in the worlds of architecture, design and new modes of living. All items in the foyer display are drawn from exhibitors and are for sale.
Dealers come from across Europe and the UK to show at the Decorative Fair. Many this Autumn are familiar faces who have exhibited for years, such as Wakelin & Linfield with fine decorative and country furniture, Drennan & Sturrock with a focus on antique Scottish design, and On-Reflection Mirrors Ltd; others are recent newcomers such as Hansord with fine furniture, scientific instruments and works of art, Anthea AG Antiques with chic gem-set jewellery and Berenis of Spain with fine decorative antiques and modern design (all located up on the Mezzanine); Joost van den Bergh with Asian art, Anthony Outred with fine country house antiques, Thurstan and Sans Pretension with decorative design and antiques, Gray MCA with textile and fashion art, and Christopher Butterworth with period lighting and fine objects.
Decorators and trade buyers are seen regularly in attendance including Nicky Haslam, Veere Grenney, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, Beata Heuman, Rose Uniacke, Kit Kemp, Olga Polizzi, Colefax & Fowler, Max Rollitt, Edward Hurst, Soho House, Paolo Moschino, Martin Brudnizki, and from the USA: Rose Tarlow, Ray Azoulay of Obsolete, and Billy Cotton.
The Fair is easily accessible from Chelsea, Sloane Square and Knightsbridge using the free shuttle service to the Fair from outside the Sloane Square Hotel; it runs four times an hour during Fair opening times. On the Mezzanine, a licensed brasserie opens daily one hour prior to the Fair, offering all-day home-cooked food, from breakfast to tea, and with a wine and cocktail bar. On-site packing and shipping services are available (UK and international).
The Fair opens Tuesday 1 October from 12pm til 8pm, and from 11am daily through Sunday 6 October 2019. Closing times vary. It takes place at Battersea Evolution, Battersea Park, London. For full visitor information and to apply for complementary tickets, visit www.decorativefair.com.

Patent Model for the Manufacture of Rubber Fabrics, Charles Goodyear, 1844 – National Museum of American History, Kenneth E. Behring Center
Expansion and Reform (1801–1861)
The early 19th century witnessed America struggling to forge a post-revolutionary identity. Having come off success in its battle for independence, the explosive growth of cotton and slavery in the South facilitated divisive debates about the rights of all men to be free. These debates affected Connecticut slaveholders and abolitionists alike, manifesting themselves in such stories as those of Prudence Crandall and John Brown. Meanwhile, Connecticut slowly established itself as one of America's most prominent manufacturing states, providing the country with iron, brass, rubber, textiles, clocks, gunpowder, and armaments. Facilitating the growth of these industries was a renewed focus on transportation infrastructure that brought about the construction of new roads and ambitious projects such as the Farmington and Windsor Locks canals.
