This is couple of years back before Eloqua was bought by Oracle. I was at a Eloqua conference and during one of the sessions my boss called me with problem in 3 of the campaigns that I'd set up for that morning. None of the emails where going through.

Not sure what to do without a laptop, I was looking around for someone to help and that’s when someone pointed me to a Elqoua support person. When I told him about the problem, without hesitation he helped me and connected me with another senior support person.

I think it's people like them who makes a big difference in companies and without a word, by just looking at my panicked face he started helping me and fixed all 3 campaigns. He also kept checking with me to see if everything else was fine.
