{April 9, 2008}   Marketing Genius?

As a marketer, I know that there is a reason why there are books like Seth Godin’s ”All Marketers Are Liars” as there is a truely a prejudice against someone seemingly foisting a product on unsuspecting individuals….and I constantly try to never be that type of PR person.

That’s why I hate when people are incredibly stupid in their placement of information— ads for illiteracy placed on the last pages of books, PMS medication that says in the warnings you shouldn’t take it if you have an enlarged prostate (those don’t seem to match), or the disclaimers on ads that just seem completely obvious (something like: don’t jump off buildings, cause this product really doesn’t make you fly).

People can’t really be that dumb, can they?
