There isn't one. You can find a list, but it's guaranteed to be overpriced and the contacts will be outdated. Email lists have a shelf life, but unlike milk or bread, their vendors never rotate the stock. This means regardless of their quoted acceptance rate, you'll overpay for an outdated list....
There are a lot of options here, but I think you may have already found the best option which is setting up a holding company to own separate subsidiaries. It's not uncommon for a holding company to create a conglomerate which owns many different businesses across multiple industries, even busin...
I did a quick web search for you and came up with Jeremiah Owyang's blog. I have met him and he's a genius. http://www.web-strategist.com/blog/2009/09/22/checklist-develop-a-successful-advocacy-program/ Should answer all your questions. Re: tracking and measurement I'd say "PR mentions" is a...

Social media is very useful for B2B SaaS companies. The level of targeting on places such as Twitter and Facebook are very useful to hit the right people/companies. LinkedIn is also another useful tool for B2B Advertising. On Twitter/Facebook, you can potentially target users of your SAAS, or c...
The answer really depends on who you are targeting. I am assuming here that it is primarily SMEs in which case I would probably focus on sales and productivity tools. There are a number of tools like Pipedrive (Sales CRM) and Trello (List organizer) that I cannot live without. Whatever you devel...
