    your post reminds me that I would like to do a Plurkshop on the unlikeliest of SM candidates- cos/orgs you would look at and think

    "they couldn't use social media." Like water/waste treatment plants, personal hygiene, I don't know. I think there are always oppty, but
  • DebInAustin says
    what kind of solutions would our group come up with. Case studies would be helpful.
  • MackCollier says
    yep there's a lot of potential if cos look at their marketing in a new way!
  • DebInAustin says
    I'll put it out there tomorrow night. I can't do it tonight.

    I suspect these guys are still "living in the past" - Huge opportunity for Marketing Education, if only they could be persuaded!

    Amadou it seems that if nothing else, they aren't monitoring the blogosphere, and I wonder if they are even monitoring their website traffic
  • MackCollier says
    MP's newsletter alone should have given the site a noticible traffic spike, I would want to know why that happened...
  • AmberCadabra
    that assumes someone is watching the traffic. :-)
  • MackCollier says
    right Amber, but again, this all happened weeks ago. Even if they were only monitoring occasionally, they would have found it by now

    I just think some companies are totally out to lunch. We have so many companies here not even in the game.

    for awhile I helped maintain my firm's website (not my job, I was just the only person who knew how)
  • Stinky
    and I mentioned checking referrers and traffic, and they were like "WOW, you can DO that?!!"
  • AmberCadabra
    yeah, stinky, that's exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. I'm baffled by the # of cos that just don't have the first clue.
  • Stinky
    it's just so foolish to spend money on marketing and not even check to see if it's working.
  • AmberCadabra
    It is indeed, but it happens ALL the time.
  • onepinktee
    hell, forget monitoring their website traffic, are they even monitoring their info email?
  • Te-ge
    wonders if they even maintain their own site. It looks fairly generic, maybe a "we have to have a site" setup?
  • Te-ge
    If so, there may be no thought of e-mails or tracking or anything really having to do with the web. It's *just* a place for another ad.
  • DebInAustin says
    I am with Amber this kind of thing happens all the time.
  • AbleReach thinks
    there is still a huge potential for education in this area. Good heads-up article, Mark.
  • AbleReach
    I reviewed you on Stumble :-)

    I think they missed a great opportunity.
