I try hard not to spam the profile managers on the eDJ Matrix except for my annual LTNY reminder to update their offering profiles. The eDJ Matrix contains over 500 companies with over 900 offerings. Every year, I blast all the profile managers with my reminder that it is eDiscovery/IG buying season, so update your profiles with your new product releases! And every year a larger number of bad email addresses bounce back as upper level marketing/product managers do the eDiscovery shuffle. I had roughly 50 from my Monday blast. The fun part is getting to see where they have landed for the ones that have already registered new accounts for their new roles. With all the acquisitions and RIF’s in the last year, I should not be surprised. Sufficient to say that I would not consider most eDiscovery providers to be a life-long career choice. Maybe that explains the resume roulette that we see every year on the exhibit hall floor. I used to make a game of checking under the keyboards at the booths to see how many had resumes stashed under them. Try it, you might be surprised.
Stay skeptical my friends!
