Marketing and Generation Y

1 comment:
The rise of the semantic web and social networks has changed the face of marketing. Instead of marketing TO consumers, we now want to market WITH the consumer. Think of it as taking ENGAGEMENT to the next level. Basically, marketers will need to define their market and learn what matters to them, and not what marketing gurus say they want. To complicate the issue, Generation Y is further divided into teens (ages 14-18) and early careerists (ages 22-29).

Participatory Marketing Network (PMN) is a partnership formed by Michael Della Penna and Ragy Thomas with Pace University’s Lubin School of Business' Interactive and Direct Marketing (IDM) Lab. This network is one of the first Gen Y ongoing research panels.

If you have an interest in marketing and Gen Y, you should visit the PMN website and read the research reports, blog posts and find out about their free webinars.

Get the Gillette Career Advantage

8 comments:
Being unemployed in any economy is devastating. Today, the competition for each job is incredible. Every person needs an edge to make them stand out from the crowd. Gillette wants to help men with a review of grooming and products as well as a tips to me to find new employment.

Gillette(R) commissioned Harris Interactive(R) to conduct a survey of 500+ human resource professionals. The results were not surprising: 92 percent of HR professionals believe well-groomed individuals look more confident; 84 percent of HR professionals agree that well-groomed employees climb the corporate ladder faster than those who are not well groomed.

If you visit the Gillette Career Advantage website, you may read or download the Gillette Hire Guide, which provides easy to understand tips on how to ensure your chance for employment success by improving your appearance, grooming and personal hygiene.

Once you have pursued the Gillette Career Advantage, visit the Gillette Resource Center. Read Keeping Up Appearances in the Workplace Advice from style and grooming expert, Brett Fahlgren. You may find some quick tips in Ten Simple Ways to Rise Above the Competition Advice from communications consultant and career expert, Mark Jeffries.

Are clean shaven cheeks, well-groomed hair, clean white teeth and nails, conservative hairstyle and suit with matching shoes going to guarantee you employment? No. But with the help on these two sites, I believe you might get that edge you need to succeed.

Try Traffic Smarter Today

3 comments:




I am not a big fan of traffic exchanges, but I like the look of Traffic Smarter. This method may work well without being intrusive. Check it out.



Traffic Smarter is a new site that says it guarantees more CONVERTING web visitors and online advertising with very little effort or cost. So I decided to put it to the test...

My first impression was the site looks professional and clean, with an attractive look and feel. It is easy to read and understand. Joining the site was easy and painless--they do offer 2 upgrade options but they are not required to gain the benefits.

The Members Area is very well laid out and intuitive--I could figure out what to do after only a few minutes and was able to get up and running in less than 5 minutes. Inside the site, you create links and ads--the links you simply enter any URL links you use into the generator and it transforms them into "Traffic Smarter" links. You create ads for anything you want to promote using the Traffic Smarter Ad Generator, which is very easy to use. You can create as many links and as many ads as you like. And they are organized in a logical way--links are displayed in the order you create them but also your 5 most recent links appear on the main page for quick reference. Also, since the link generator is the tool you'll use most, it is also right at the top of the main page when you login. Very smart!



After you've created at least 1 link and 1 ad you can start to generate traffic. Every time the Traffic Smarter link is clicked, the page loads followed by a cool slide-up ad window at the bottom. It displays an ad PLUS an image with your affiliate link that goes back to Traffic Smarter. So if anyone clicks the Traffic Smarter image they see the site, and if they signup they become your referral. It's a great viral feature because you can build referrals without even trying to just by using the site.
