For a number of years before becoming an implementation specialist, I worked in and ran a number of agencies dealing with a multitude of Eloqua clients. Early next year I am very seriously considering launching an Eloqua only agency. I have a couple of questions I would like to ask you as part of my marketing research.
Eloqua agency name
I have three different names that I am toying with:
Platypus Easy name, marketing giveaways are easy!
Blackjack16 A lot of history here, was my callsign in Afghanistan
January11 The date that Eloqua was incorporated, good story
What should my Eloqua agency be called?

Platypus is ok... but another idea maybe you can work on is combining 11 and Eloqua - "Eloven" "E11ven" or something like this.*3%, 3 votes

Eloqua agency pricing
I will have fully transparent pricing based off a rate card. Each line item will have a length of time allocated to it, i.e email build: 1.5 hours.
I am going to be using technology to make the user experience much better, imagine the simplicity of ordering a pizza, you can see precisely what stage things are at from order processing the delivery. That’s what you will get with my agency. You will also be able to see at a glance how much you have spent that month and exactly on what. Optimistically there will be no teething problems but realistically there may well be.
What type of discount and for how long do you think are acceptable for customers who sign pre-launch?
This is a contentious issue. Personally, I strongly believe all work should be carried out on your account at the office in Britain and you should have access to the person doing the work, not a program manager. Other highly reputable agencies, my competition, prefer offshoring at $30 per hour, charging you a markup which keeps costs low and gives you an onshore account manager to over see things.
This video made me laugh so much it was unreal. Whether you can't wait to get back, are back, don't want to go back or feel indifferent, this video will make you laugh your socks off.Things will be fine, just you wait and see. Time to get things back to how they...
“This is the day we pay homage to all those who didn’t come home. This is not Veterans Day, it’s not a celebration, it is a day of solemn contemplation over the cost of freedom.”I wasn’t always an Eloqua and Salesforce developer/consultant. I started out life leaving...
This post has loads of videos and photos! It is also very personal to me but I still want to share it with you.I usually just write marketing automation technical and theory articles but I thought I would share a little more about myself as a person in this post. I...

Not sure Greg, don’t see much appetite for Eloqua these days, since the acquisition by Oracle, Marketo is definitely the preferred partner and blends with more CRM systems.
I have had another two feedbacks very similar to yours Tim. I don’t know what Oracle are up to… They are improving their product and it is still really awesome but it doesn’t look like they are doing that much marketing of it. I guess the new strategy must be bundle it up and get their ERP clients to buy it and then implement it. I think it is sad because it really is an awesome product. Hell, if Eloqua managed to make me leave the army it must have something to it. I think for now I want to remain niche, I have been trying to cultivate my image as the go to guy for Eloqua contracting and I thought that I might do the same with this agency. All food for thought – and thank you very much for taking the time to read my article, hopefully answer it and certainly make a comment.
