DMA Releases International Spam Law Summary
NEW YORK, AUGUST 6, 2003 – The Direct Marketing Association (The DMA) has released an Executive Summary of International Spam Laws, covering 41 countries and the European Union. The summary is designed to assist DMA members in complying with applicable laws when marketing abroad.

The new DMA report specifies each nation’s opt-in and opt-out practices, and summarizes laws that detail rules for direct and interactive marketers. It also explains European Union Directives that will effect marketing practices in 15 European nations beginning November 1, 2003.

"Legitimate e-mail marketers care about the rules, and play by them, at home and abroad," said H. Robert Wientzen, president & CEO, The DMA. "By complying with laws governing cross-border e-mail marketing, we will ensure that this valuable new marketing channel remains viable."

"The summary will lessen the confusion associated with laws governing e-mail marketing abroad," added Charles Prescott, vice president of international business development and government affairs, The DMA. "At a glance, marketers will be able to make responsible and lawful decisions with confidence."

The summary can be found on The DMA’s web site at http://www.the-dma.org/antispam/spamlaws.shtml. The DMA will continue to monitor domestic and international spam laws and will post updates as they become available.

Frito-Lay and GM Get Integrated Marketing and Leverage the Power of Consumers in a Big Way
GM and Frito-Lay and their agencies have recently figured out a great way of getting consumers more engaged with their brands, leveraging the new found power of the consumer. It's a great lesson in integrated marketing communications and engagement for all marketers.Both brands are running contests for consumers to create homemade commercials (also referred to as consumer generated content) for
Marketing: The Art vs. Science Debate
I am amazed at how often we marketers debate over whether marketing is art or science. I was recently at a marketing association fund raising event where a speaker proclaimed that marketers are true artists, as if being artists validates our work. I thought, hmmm...Maybe that's part of the reason why CEOs and other departments think of marketers as lacking process and accountability, because we
Marketing Accountability on Another Level; Seth Godin's Profoundly Important Post
Seth Godin recently wrote a post on marketing ethics at his blog that has marketers talking. I applaud Seth's passion and his clever way of addressing marketing ethics in his book "All Marketers are Liars." It's a topic our profession needs to dialogue on and care about. I realize that business ethics books don't sell very well, so I'll keep this short and hope you'll look at Seth's post.
Can a Blog, Long Neglected, Be Resuscitated? My Re-Entry Into the Blogosphere
It's common blogosphere wisdom that to keep a blog alive, you need to keep to a rigorous publishing schedule. Well, if you've kept up with my blog, or even if you haven't and you notice the dates of previous posts, we're about to put that assumption to a test, as I make my re-entry into the blogosphere.But first, a little disclosure. For those cynics out there, you may see this (perhaps,
Speaking at BtoB's NetMarketing Breakfast Thursday in Chicago - Oct 6 - Here's $10 Off
Forgive the self-promotion, but I'll be speaking and participating in a roundtable at Crain's BtoB's NetMarketing Breakfast in Chicago this Thursday, October 6th. I've been strugling between two presentations, one regarding a significant study that breaks apart and measures each vehicle of marketing campaigns -- television, print, Internet, search engine marketing, radio spots, etc.; the other
Google Launches Google Blog Search
It was only a matter of time. Google has been promising blog search for a couple of years. Finally, this morning they rolled out a blog search engine capability. Not surprisingly, it’s labeled “beta.”According to a Google, “The goal of Blog Search is to include every blog that publishes a site feed (either RSS or Atom).” It looks for sites that update pinging services and crawls in real-time.
Disintegrated Marketing...
After more than a decade experience with the commercial web, you’d think major marketers would consider the web more than an afterthought. However, evidence reveals many consumer marketers still can’t distinguish between a website, an ad or a brochure. While retailers like Wal-Mart, Lowes, Nordstrom and Circuit City get it, there are others that still seem confused. When clothing retailer Gap
Burger King Goes Tasteless
Shock value is the refuge of the talentless when it comes to advertising and viral marketing. Burger King has decided to one-up Carl Jr.'s Paris Hilton raunch, by creating a series of over-the-top raunchy commercials and a website to promote a fictitious band called Coq Roq -- filled with bad double entendres. And while Carl Jr. is a small brand that can thrive by staying in the niches, Burger
Search Engine Marketing Secrets Revealed, Email Marketing Secrets, Direct Marketing Secrets...Apparently Marketers are Lousy at Keeping Secrets
A quick perusal through my email inbox reveals dozens of messages from companies touting for pay articles, books, seminars and papers on every topic known to marketing all claiming to possess "secrets."I checked a few out recently and was amazed to learn that things I've considered fairly common knowledge among those experienced with online marketing are actually secrets! Things like Google
"Those Who Ignore History are Destined to Repeat It" Applies to Marketing Too
One of the great lessons of the dot com era was that you can’t buy your way into a successful brand with mere dollars and awareness. After all, awareness doesn’t equal preference or sales. Those who attempted to “build their brand at breakneck speed” only ended up breaking their brand’s neck. Great brands are not built from ad dollars, although there are always marketing and advertising
