Advertising: Advertising Flattens: Where’s The Connection? by Rich Becker on Copywrite, Inc. Why all advertising is local and where to put your emphasis.

Branding: Passalong Advertising by Al Ries on The Ries Report (video) I struggled deciding on a category for this link. While Al talks about advertising here, his thoughts illustrate the connectedness of all marketing efforts including word of mouth and advertising.

Conversation: Chipotle by Jessica Wicker on Fresh Eye in Marketing. I’m cheating a little bit because Jessica is an intern here at The Marketing Spot. But it’s a good story that shows how Chipotle moves in to a market with little to no advertising.
