Question

Can marketing sell bad products?

Answer 1

Duh! Yes, you have obviously been deceived by marketers if u dont know this

Answer 2

yes - im sure youve bought something youve seen advertised and thought that sounds good and it turned out to be a piece of ****

Answer 3

Cigarettes and alcohol

Answer 4

YEs it can and it has....have you ever bought something that you thought was great or would work for you but hasn't? Then that's good marketing making an item seem great when it isn't. Or when you see like the one touch or PED EGG...and you think oh that's great i'm going to use that all day..or even a hammer and you think of all the things you need to do that requires a hammer but when you get it you don't really need it...it's marketing that makes you think you need it or that it's a good product that you NEED to have with you.

Hi,

I have a lot of experience marketing small companies online (I have 3 companies).  One of the best ways is to sign up at business directories and protals.  These are basically listings of businesses (simliar to the phone book).  The advantage is that these portals usually get a lot of traffic and they're ranked high on Google because of all the quality links they contain.

My favorite portal is called Directory Exclusive.  I signed up a few weeks ago because they're giving a away a free business card holder when a person enter's their company info.  I received it in the mail 3 days ago =)

I don't know if they still have that promotion, but you can try to get the free card holder here:
