Strong statements about marketing by Larry Weber

(cross-posted on the Corante Marketing Hub)

Chris Carfi from the Social Customer Manifesto brings us some strong statements made by PR Guru Larry Weber at the Syndicate conference (via Doc):

  • If your sites don’t have a social interface, you’re going to lose the leadership position in what you do.
  • Whenever a business category gets messed up, we get a C title. Now marketing is so messed up, we’ve got CMOs.

I am not sure about the cause and effect, but based on many discussions with marketers and people who consult with marketers we’ve had - marketing is truly in “death valley” at this point - somewhere between the old models and the new emerging models.
