    Do You Have Social Media Clout?

    May 4, 2011

    When Content Science sends their quarterly e-newsletter to their mailing list, their email open rate is 50%.

    "Well, of course," I hear you saying. "Sending an e-newsletter to subscribers who have opted in would most certainly have a fairly high open rate."

    UnMarketing: Stop Pushing and Praying, Start Pulling and Staying

    March 2, 2011

    When marketing consultant Scott Stratten worked with the owners of a new restaurant, he recommended inviting residents of a nearby condo complex to a free dinner. Over two nights, the owners could get 150 people to start the buzz about the new restaurant in town.

    But the owners balked at giving away free food, which they estimated would cost them several thousand dollars. Yet they had spent $5,000 on a magazine ad!

    “How many customers did it bring in?” Stratten asked. “We don’t know,” they replied.
