"Wonder who's buying [Oracle's] CRM SW? Did they name names?" Answer: No one we've ever heard of. Despite being on v. 3 of the software, Oracle has produced only one customer reference: a copy-machine service co. in Portland, Ore. Come on. They couldn't come up with anything better than that? I agree with other posters who have commented on Oracle's creative revenue attribution methods... they're giving the CRM software away with purchases, and then claiming the revenue under "CRM."

hey shege, Interesting buzz about issues at sebl in marketing on the yahoo threads. I guess marketing is important, but it sure as heck isn't hurting sebl's business performance. If Tom was responsible for the laxative ad on superbowl their marketing really is a load of crap. (pardon the pun.) Is marketing that important for a company that has a kick ass sales force that's gaining share? I'm sure not losing sleep about SEBL's business outlook or the upcoming q2 results. Bad marketing, great company? Is it possible? TD
