Marqui launch
They’re helping to create a new category of services - which combines email campaigning, CMS, marketing communications and… a little bit of work flow. It’s sort of like lite-weight CMS meets tools servers in the valley of the small enterprise.
I’m sure Doc will love it - as it’s very DIY IT-like.
They call it “Communication Management Systems” and it actually works. It’s actually pretty cool.
Anyway - so I was sitting there one day in August when they asked “how can we get into the blogosphere.”
At that point I had heard that request like a 1,000 times. So I looked around the room and said “what the hell, let me give it a shot”.
What was the most outrageous idea I could throw at them?
“Pay Bloggers to Blog”
and they went for it!
Program will start next week.
Oh yah - let me say this for the first time = “I’m getting paid to blog about Marqui.”
And God Bless Jason Calacanis. May be sell banner ads till the cows come home. It’s just that I’m so sick and tired of dam banner ads.
Hi Marc,
I think it is a great idea to reimbuse all the hard work bloggers do all over the internet.
Why should they not be able to accept sponsorships as spokspersons. Celebrities do this, models do this and indirectly every form of paid marketing does this.
Paid Blogging is just a very personal paid advertisement, up close and warm and fuzzy and I bet very productive!
