  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  Regular readers know I’m a big proponent of “good enough is sometimes good enough” and innovation for innovation’s sake can be a big waste of time… BUT Sometimes we get so used to rolling ’round and ’round…we forget to think about where we’re going. And, do we really want to go there ? ...

  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  AOL – um, Aol. – just unveiled their new logo (which will have changing backgrounds, such as the cute fish).  Some call it lame , others like it. I’d be more concerned – if I were an Aol. marketer (or stockholder) – with what’s going on behind the logo. What’s happening with product development? ...

  NYT: Warm Intentions Meet Cold Reality. What is the sound of one eye rolling?

  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  “Bloggers send more than a few emails asking to be removed from a media list, we also send emails to PR people to tell them why a pitch doesn’t work for their blog – and perhaps what might work in the future.” – The Bad Pitch Blog Of course, I’m exaggerating the death…or am I?   I’d submit that ...

  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  Many people are still leery about doing business on the Web, with some justification. “I don’t want to give my info to Paypal.” Yet, they give everything to Amazon and they often get sucked into all kinds of online flim-flam, such as… From TechCrunch: The Post-Transaction Marketing Wall Of Shame: Hundreds ...

  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  “Value” is a constantly moving target. It depends not only on the person, but the time, mood, need and context. A personal example: Hotels. Clean beds. Hot Water. Coffee. Those are the basics for me. But then again… On my recent road trip to Oklahoma, I stayed in two hotels which are about as far ...

  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  “Our target market is the Fortune 500.” “We’ll target industry leaders.” Both of these tired sentences come up repeatedly in go-to-market plans – and they’re meaningless. First, there are only 500 of the Fortune 500 (and they’re a pretty ragged bunch these days, in any event.) Do you know ...

  Mary Schmidt Marketing Troubleshooter — Authority: 122
  Last Wednesday I woke up and realized I really, really, really needed a haircut RIGHT NOW (one day the hair is fine; the next I look like Crackhead Barbie…go figure.)
