Consumers Take Control

WALL STREET JOURNALAmerica's Newest Profession: Bloggers for Hire

In America today, there are almost as many people making their living as bloggers as there are lawyers. Already more Americans are making their primary income from posting their opinions than Americans working as computer programmers or firefighters.

Paid bloggers fit just about every definition of a microtrend: Their ranks have grown dramatically over the years, blogging is an important social and cultural movement that people care passionately about, and the number of people doing it for at least some income is approaching 1% of American adults.

The Consumer is in Control

• Mastercard’s Priceless.com is Loaded with consumer video. “Priceless Picks are not necessarily endorsed by MasterCard”

• BMW’s use of a 1998 video of children opening their Nintendo on Christmas — paid to use it in new spot

• Anheuser Busch launches Bud.tv, videos made by Bud drinkers

• Doritos 30-second Superbowl ad

Online Video

BrandWeek: Permission-Based E-mail Affects Purchase Decisions

Much as consumers dislike being spammed, an Epsilon study released this week says those who've signed up to receive "permission-based e-mail" from retailers are happy to get it.

In the polling (fielded last October) of people who've opted in to receive such e-mails, 56 percent of respondents said the messages make them more likely to buy from a store that sent them. Nearly as many (52 percent) said the e-mails give them a more favorable opinion of the store, and 48 percent feel "more loyal" toward the retailer as a result of the messages

• House lists over bought lists - bought lists produce spam and subsequently backlash

• Content driven - email’s value to the receiver is based on it’s content

• Sent rate, open rate, click-throughs are the primary metrics that determine an email campaign’s success
