I apologize if I came off as nasty. Truly I think you have an excellent outlet for specialized information. With a slightly stronger push of your services, I imagine you'd increase business and brand awareness quite well. Good luck to you. Brendon Jeff, please do. I apologize if I came off as nasty.

It is an interuption. A business will find that they will do better if they are in the news (which is free) then being beside the news. I personally agree with Seth Godin’s defeniition of marketing.

How the hell did you end up here? I didn't think anybody other than my friends who I forced to subscribe/leave comments would see this anyhow.. which explains why I'm just putting stuff up as it comes without thinking too much. I thought I was alone here. By the way. How the hell did you end up here?

The above article is sort of a hypothetical scenario and I guess I should have specified that this is internet marketing, not general marketing. You're right, there are other sides of things I do not know about and I specialize more on the online market of things. My clients who are at that level often have their own side of the "big" marketing scheme covered, and are often very specific with their instructions to me so I usually don't worry about it that much. Although I do intend to take some schooling/classes on statistics etc. Thanks for your comments! Cheers. p.s. Mind if I link some of your blog articles to my blog? Of course you'll be fully credited.

Yes, marketing is a cornucopia of genres, all mixed and slathered together, but frankly marketing is very specific and deserves as niche classification. So often web designers and finance professionals alike try and shove a plate full of bad marketing advice across the table and mark it as grade "A." It doesn't work that way. Measurement is key, yes. But, it depends on the problem of which you're finding the solution. Too often people outside, and some inside, the marketing field rely solely on statistics and other measurable numbers, but if you don't apply innovation, creativity and plain hard, long thought to the initial solution to your problem, the end-numbers don't mean crap! I commend you on trying to produce quality content worth reading, but reaching to the depths of distribution channels, logistics, and the other thousand facets of marketing - that are based on various types of markting - is going to leave a lot of people in the dark once they've reached their own critical mass - confusion. With your specialization being the web-based market, you ought to write a white paper on what you know, specifically and attract non-using, potential clients to your products and services. Otherwise you'll find jerky marketers like myself laying down bad comments. I'll stick around to see what you come up with - Truly the term “marketing” has be slaughtered and frankly, as a marketeer, I’m insulted.

Tracking, and adapting to the figures as they come in. Remaining flexible to different curveballs is important.

If you do not get the ROI you want from it or not sure what ROI is then you should really hire someone that knows what they are doing to market for you.
