Spend Intelligence Resource Group

With all the individual groups within a rapidly growing number of social networks it is important to stand out in critical areas such as the timely and convenient dissemination of needed information.

In short, just because you build it (the group), does not necessarily mean they, being professional members, will come.

Understanding this new paradigm where yesterday’s news happens within a matter of hours instead of days, I am reminded of the following comment I received from an audience member:

“Where it once did, the value gained from the traditional model can no longer compete for my attention.  I need to collaborate bigger, faster, stronger – and at my convenience.”

Bigger, Faster, Stronger and Convenient was the driving force behind our decision to establish the Zycus Spend Intelligence Resource Group on LinkedIn.  In an effort to stand out from the crowd we have worked hard to create a unique experience for our group’s members.

What makes this group unique as an intelligent information resource for Spend Management?

Here are just a few of the amazing resources that will be made available to you when you become a member of the Spend Intelligence Resource Group:

1. Interactive media which includes live guest panel discussions on Blog Talk Radio that are recorded and made available to you on an on-demand basis so that you may listen at your convenience.  (Note: Remember to join us live and on-air tomorrow between 12:30 and 1:30 PM EDT on Blog Talk Radio’s PI Window on Business Show as we discuss the differences between Spend Analysis and Spend Management).

2. Access to industry thought leaders including book excerpts, studies and special call-in shows making expertise and insight readily and conveniently available through the mediums of your choice.

3. Advanced screening of Webinars and virtual events – be the first to hear about new developments in the market and what they mean to you!

4. Moderation of peer-to-peer discussion groups with resource material support.

The Spend Intelligence Resource Group is more than just a meeting place.  It is a venue through which dynamic, meaningful and thought-provoking ideas regarding Spend Management are exchanged and acted upon.

Vodpod videos no longer available.
