1. People could still...Just some more thoughts... <br /><br />1. People could still choose to buy books (etc) which irradicates the problem of "poor" people not having enough points to buy fiction, as well as the issue of niche fiction not being sponsored ... Search engines and especially social media does a great job already of disseminating the "news" about niche items.<br /><br />2. If our bank account details (transaction details and income but not "access" details of course) were part of the system, advertising could be targeted to specific socio-economic groups and so there wouldn't necessarily be "too many" ads being served to people in the lower socio-economic zone, as many of the ads would be filtered out as being "inappropriate" or basically pointless.<br /><br />3. Uber-Brands that became absolute in their 360 degree approach would end up being the "winners" in this system as they could have all types of products AND fiction under the one umbrella and then encourage spending "points" within their own brand-group via "discounts" (points only so it doesn't really lose anything in dollar terms) if the consumer uses points on one of their own fiction outlets/channels etc. Those internal fiction channels would in turn support the further purchase of this uber-brand's other products through clever product-placement ... surely this concept is in use in some way already?Humanized Brandinghttp://makeithuman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26974492.post-16906763168229900242010-02-03T18:32:57.243-05:002010-02-03T18:32:57.243-05:00Wow! ... this article/concept is incredible "...Wow! ... this article/concept is incredible "coal" -- raw, rich (and good for starting "fires"! haha) -- which will, one day through the compound of mass consciousness, become a diamond we treasure unequivocally...<br /><br />It's also the first article of this length I have read from start to finish online ... if it was late at night, I'm sure it would have kept me from my welcoming bed until the very end.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing -- please keep me updated (contact through www.makeithuman.com) with any future articles of such genius!<br /><br />-MattHumanized Brandinghttp://makeithuman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26974492.post-77142184199718649912010-02-03T00:31:51.495-05:002010-02-03T00:31:51.495-05:00The Center for Media Research has released a study...The Center for Media Research has released a study by Vertical Response that shows just where many of these ‘Main Street’ players are going with their online dollars. The big winners: e-mail and social media. With only 3.8% of small business folks NOT planning on using e-mail marketing and with social media carrying the perception of being free (which they so rudely discover it is far from free) this should make some in the banner and search crowd a little wary.<br /><br /><br />www.onlineuniversalwork.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
