Powerful Tools One Click away with Cascade Server Firefox Extension

By Syl Turner

Friday, May 2nd, 2008 at 4:00pm

Cascade Server is very simple to navigate through already, but some of us power developers need a few more shortcuts. Sure, we have access keys (Alt-E to edit, Alt-S to submit, etc.), but some of us are clickers. That’s why the Cascade Server Firefox Extension was created! Features Now, you can easily right-click on an asset and it provides numerous asset options! View, Edit, Copy, Delete and Publish is now only one click away, instead of two! This works anywhere there’s a link to the asset, too. So if a page is linked within the content, you can right-click on the link to reveal the same options! That’s not all! If you&#82 ... Read More

Separate, but Equally Important: the Sales and Marketing Relationship

By Morgan Griffith

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008 at 11:40am

In a general sense, Marketing refers to any activity that increases awareness about a good or service, and moves those goods or services from the supplier to the consumer.

Key factors such as your product lifecycle, product costs, and the commitment a consumer or business must make to purchase your good or service should all be considered when deciding what Marketing endeavors to pursue. These factors must also be considered when analyzing where Marketing ends and Sales ... Read More
