DAM Guru Program Update
The DAM Guru Program established by vendor, Picturepark, is celebrating its first anniversary this week. Now with 400 members (including myself) it does appear to be gaining some industry-wide support, in no small part due to the fact that the sponsors have been assiduously careful to not use it as an unofficial marketing channel. They sent us some PR about their latest news, these include:
- A dedicated LinkedIn group (yes, another DAM one you will have to join).
- A series of webinars delivered by DGP gurus.
- Various operational changes, including allowing gurus to call for help from their peers (not just ‘newbies’)
More details are available on the press release.

Thanks for the vote of confidence in the operations integrity, Ralph. I really appreciate that you pointed that out because I know it’s a big concern for many. But we promise to continue to keep it clean and member-focused. Otherwise, as you mentioned in a previous post, the program would fall apart and we’d have nothing.
Interesting little #FunFactFriday: In a recent survey sent to DAM Guru Program members, only 11% of respondents felt the program should be managed by another organization. We’re sending Swiss chocolates to those people and we’ll survey them again in a month’s time. ;)
