If the world of internet marketing was a high school – and let’s face it, it kind of is – Siri would the hot new transfer student that gives the local mean girls a run for their money at the popularity game. You see, she and her (future) personal assistant friends are set to shift the way you search and discover the internet and therefore, the way businesses market themselves there.

The other day I decided to purchase directly from a major retailer’s website rather than drive to the store. I figured it would be easier to order it and have it shipped than go through the hassle of packing up the kids in the car, fighting traffic and hunting for parking at a big box store. After all I knew what I wanted and didn’t need the aggravation.

Recently, marketing guru Al Ries posted an article on AdAge.com asking “Do You Have Everything Except a Marketing Strategy?” It’s a great read focused on the strategies (or lack thereof) of large cap companies and political candidates as they work to increase sales or votes but it doesn’t really address the strategic challenges entrepreneurs face every day. Specifically, small businesses rarely have the stratified corporate structures of a Fortune 500 conglomerate or a presidential campaign, so his advice against top management developing the corporate strategy doesn’t mesh with the realities of smaller firms since “top management” and the “marketing team” can typically be one and the same.

It’s one of our jobs to keep up with our client’s online mentions and reviews. Usually the articles are very specific to their products or services. Today I was reading some of the SOUL by Ludacris product reviews and found an amazing review on Headphones.com. Much to my surprise – but absolute enjoyment – the expert in house reviewer, Mr. David Soloman, mentions the actual package design and product presentation.

On Friday we received a call from one of our partners in Central Florida. Willie calls and says “are you going to be there. I have something for you.” He arrives at our office all excited like a kid in a candy store. So we say “what’s up Willie?” and he hands us a Hot Wheels car and says “look, they misspelled your name.” After a thorough review of the Hot Wheels package we found that TECHNETIUM was misspelled in two places. One was in big letters across the front with a ® symbol marketing the misspelling with pride.

Yesterday on ESPN's Outside the Lines they did a feature story on Wes Leonard. This was truly a tragic story and unfortunately it happens far too often. Parent Heart Watch, one of Technetium's favorite clients, was founded to educate parents about sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and how it can be prevented. Too many kids die each year from medical issues that could be detected with testing.

As Americans we hear so much negative news each and every day. I've spoken to clients, friends, fellow business owners and many others that "business is good, cash flow is terrible." It's truly crazy that with all the bank bailout talk that cash is still tight and that banks won't lend unless you don't really need the money. Crazy.
