Profile Information
- About Me:
- I have 30 years of sales and marketing experience across many industries. I sold telecommunications products and services for several years and before that fine jewelry. I initiated competitive intelligence (CI) at Verizon and built a process to capture competitive information across commercial marketing, including Sales. I conducted forecasting and competitive intelligence at Northwest Airlines.
In this difficult economy, clients benefit from our in-depth research on any topic using our skills in primary and secondary research and tapping into our vast social network as well as our programs to integrate marketing and sales intelligence. I teach Sales how to incorporate CI elicitation and interviewing techniques right into the Sales process to learn what the market is demanding, and what products or services a company needs to develop to maintain its competitive edge. Customers are a key source of market intelligence, and with our programs companies improve their relationship with customers, every time Sales meets a customer.
Ellen’s clients benefit from her passion, insatiable curiousity, active listening and ability to work effectively within each company’s unique culture, as she grew up in an international community in Yokohama, Japan. She helps companies improve their marketing prowess through building an early warning process, collecting valuable intelligence at trade shows; conducting win/loss interviews and analysis to improve customer retention; and conducting results-driven workshops.
Ellen's signature practice, "Cooperative Intelligence," promotes openness and relationship building by listening and being heard. It focuses on the right people skills to be an effective leader, connector and communicator--the cornerstone of trust.

Regina M Maxwell said… Hi Ellen,
Thanks for your warm welcome, and yes, I have been a member of AIIP since June 2010. What an awesome group of info pros! A terrific lot! I am hoping to get to Indianapolis in 2012 and really look forward to meeting you. I'm sorry our paths didn't cross at the SLA AIIP social in Philly. I live here and was overwhelmed by the number of AIIP legends there that night ;)
I look forward to our staying in touch -- I am fairly new to entrepreneurship (a little over a year) and I have learned so much and have tremendous respect for those of you who've been at it for so long! I know it's hard work, but I sure wouldn't mind if some of your success rubbed off on me ;)
With warm regards,
Regina

Hi Ellen, Thanks for the welcome.
It would be good to keep in touch and I like your profile. I'm interested in the ethics associated with CI and how best to train applying ethical standards in practice. How do you approach this area?
Best wishes, David

Shelly Azar said… Thanks for finding and adding me as a friend. I had heard of this group before, but never actively looked for it. I stumbled across it yesterday. I'm already seeing familiar faces and names. I'll take that as a good sign.
It was really good to see you again too. I hope we'll stay in contact more often this time around!
