NI Technology Updates Outlooks for Motorola Mobility, Atmel, MicroVision, Marvel Technology Group, and Finisar – Consumer Electronics Net

Posted on 16 September 2011 by admin

Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, has published updated outlooks for Motorola Mobility (NYSE: MMI), Atmel (Nasdaq: ATML), MicroVision (Nasdaq: MVIS), Marvel Technology Group (Nasdaq: MRVL), Finisar (Nasdaq: FNSR).


Next Inning editor Paul McWilliams has leveraged a decades-long career as a semiconductor industry insider to deliver in-depth insights and winning stock selections for his newsletter subscribers. McWilliams’ Next Inning model portfolio has posted huge gains, returning 241% since its inception in 2002, and he has been picking more potential big winners for 2011.


McWilliams has been right on target this year with his predictions on the direction of the market. From the spring sell-off to the June rebound to the slump in July and massive selloff that followed, McWilliams has kept Next Inning readers one step ahead of the market.


An example of a recent call for Next Inning trial subscribers: On August 8th McWilliams suggested buying Nvidia at its then current sub-$12 price. His claim was the stock had sold off too much and that Nvidia was poised to grow earnings by at least 20% to 30% in 2012. On September 7th, Nvidia announced it would in fact hit McWilliams’ target. Nvidia closed on September 7th up more than 20% from McWilliams suggestion to buy.


Trial subscribers will receive McWilliams’ highly acclaimed earnings previews and his quarterly State of Tech series, which offers in-depth, sector-by-sector coverage of over 65 leading tech companies, as well as his daily commentary that covers more than 100 of the hottest names in tech.

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:


– Now that some time has passed since Google made its offer for Motorola Mobility, should Motorola investors continue to hold out for a better offer? Are there reasons to hold onto Motorola shares even if a new offer doesn’t materialize?


– Why might Atmel’s relationship with Samsung be weighing on Atmel shares? Is there a risk that this situation will lead Atmel to report Q3 revenue below its prior guidance? Even taking this possibility into account, is Atmel still trading at a far lower valuation than it should be?


– Is there any chance a MicroVision pico-projector will be included in Apple’s new iPhone 5? What important fact do MicroVision investors need to keep in mind?


– Is Marvell’s plan to help deliver low-cost smartphones to the Chinese market threatened by Taiwanese firm MediaTek? Why is the Chinese smartphone market poised to boom, and what has Marvell done to bring it to this tipping point?


– McWilliams suggested investors buy Finisar ahead of the market open on August 22 when it was trading at only $15.61 and reiterated the call ahead of the August 29th opening at $17.18. As McWilliams predicted, Finisar guided well above Wall Street expectations and the stock surged to open above $20s following its earnings report. In his in depth review of Finisar’s earnings report, what is McWilliams’ updated outlook for the stock? Does he see more upside ahead from here?


Founded in September 2002, Next Inning’s model portfolio has returned 241% since its inception versus 32% for the S&P 500.

TalkTalk Business Selects Eloqua for Revenue Performance Management – Consumer Electronics Net

Posted on 13 September 2011 by admin

Eloqua, the leading provider of on-demand Revenue Performance Management solutions, today announced that TalkTalk Business (formerly known as Opal), a provider of communications solutions to UK organisations, recently selected Eloqua for the company’s lead management and demand generation efforts. TalkTalk Business implemented Eloqua as part of a broader initiative to become a more streamlined and sophisticated marketing organisation.


TalkTalk Business sought a solution that could grow with their business and help the marketing team drive revenue growth. In the past, the marketing department at TalkTalk Business supplied leads to sales, but the company hadn’t engaged in sophisticated lead nurturing and lead scoring programs. To improve marketing efficiency and performance, TalkTalk Business implemented Eloqua along with a CRM system from salesforce.com, providing the team with effective lead nurturing and lead scoring capabilities.


“Prior to Eloqua, we were using a pretty archaic e-mail service provider which came with lots of manual processes such as loading data and pulling stats on click-through and open rates,” said Jim Burns, Marketing Communications Manager, TalkTalk Business. “There was no automation and the tool couldn’t keep up with us strategically — we needed more.”

With a range of complex B2B communication products, TalkTalk Business is using Eloqua for a series of automated lead nurturing programs designed to educate and engage with potential buyers. TalkTalk Business will leverage advanced lead scoring to improve the overall efficiency of the sales team. Ultimately, TalkTalk Business will harness the power of Eloqua for a complete view of potential customers, helping the company make accurate sales and marketing decisions in order to improve revenue performance.


Burns continued, “Eloqua’s lead nurturing and lead scoring capabilities will help us become a more efficient and successful marketing organization. But as a marketing team, we understand the bigger picture which is the connection between marketing and driving revenue for the business. We feel we’re on the RPM path.”


“At Eloqua, we’re familiar with the TalkTalk Business predicament where businesses outgrow a simple email service provider,” said Brian Kardon, CMO, Eloqua. “The marketing team at TalkTalk Business knew they wanted to go beyond batch and blast email marketing and had a strategic vision in place to improve revenue performance. We really look forward to helping them achieve their ambitious goals.”
