Facebook advertisers, what was the cost-per-like on some of your campaigns?
Did you think it was worth it? Do you mind sharing the industries you had success/failure in?

A clever way to display wallets in retail store. HELP
I started a wallet company, Articulate Wallets, which launched on Kickstarter and raised just over $100k. We are now going to be in a few retail stores, but want a clever way to display them. The back of the wallets have a patent pending slide feature that we want to make sure gets displayed. Any cool ideas on how we can display them is appreciated! Here is the link to our Kickstarter if you want to check them out. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/14006613/articulate-wallets-unique-stylish-leather-wallets/comments?ref=activity

What are some of the Marketing paths?
How much is the average salary in that path?

I feel lost and I don't know where to go.

P2P Carshare in Airports
My thoughts on P2P CS in SFO and Airports in gen'l after spending a couple of hours doing walkabout at SFO.
P2P Carshare will figure out airport business models for many reasons, one of which is "doubleheaders".
This is anecdotal: I spoke with more than a dozen folks in the SFO rental car center airport transporter tram. More than half had left a car in some kind of airport parking at the other end of their trip. Furthermore, airport car renters seem to be mostly car owners.
At SFO it is a long ride on tram to rental car center, short term parking is closer in many situations. My impression is that many airports are (slowly) moving towards the rental car center model.
Van serviced, off-airport car rental is punitively inefficient at SFO because van pickup is only after tram ride to rental car center and a another schlep .
Here are some airport business model considerations:
A. At SFO, Short term parking works as a PR stunt only: SFO short term parking has Fastrak in and out. This facilitates guerilla p2P carsharing. HOWEVER, the parking contract that the parker agrees to on entering is in the control of the airport authority who is highly likely to object and has incentive and little trouble enforcing carshare handoff ban.
B. Airport p2p carshare economics and operational flexibility get better the longer the car owner's trip is scheduled to be. Therefore discouraging cars available for less than 3 days might be a rule or achieved through pricing and incentives.
IMO there are roughly three levels of product sets in airport P2P carsharing:
high value: a good deal, acceptable convenience, acceptable quality vehicles - operating model is largely self-service
respectable: more expensive, somewhat classier vehicles and/or higher convenience levels
fancy: notable vehicles, high levels of service/convenience, high prices - operating model includes human resources
C. Perhaps the least intuitive and simplest airport transfer solution for the high value crowd at SFO is to use BART and BART parking. For a seven dollar transport ticket, BART is reliable, accessible, and usually has many open parking spots and pay options in Daly City and Colma. Furthermore, BART parking has other synergies with P2Pcarshare.
D. Around SFO notably, there is a cluster of multiple New and Used Car dealers/service near the airport, many of them high-end, many with shuttle service to the airport. Auto service locations are of interest in any event and these dealers may be a partner solutions for the fancy and respectable segments.
E. At airports other than SFO where off-airport car rental vans are allowed curbside pickup, smaller local and franchised car rental outfits already running vans are partners worth considering.
F. There is a lot of space at the rental car center at SFO. Perhaps one way for an adventurous P2P carshare operator to succeed is to go legit and sign with the airport authority. A legit and successful on airport operation generates a flow of cars that are available for a week or more.
Undoubtedly successful P2P airport carshare models with require several designs for the operating and regulatory characteristics of different airports. Nationwide success will come from designing the least common denominator product, app and technology and then using those tools in a flexible and adaptive way.
Marketing opportunities:
Low hanging fruit marketing opp'ties: There are predictable days when rental cars become scarce at big airports. Think Superbowl, Fleet Week, 4th of July etc.

Write a marketing status report your team will love (with samples)
Passing on a lesson I learned early in my career that's helped me out a lot. Every time I've introduced this framework to a company, other folks have adopted it and less painful meetings have occurred.
In general, my marketing status updates contain the following sections:
Summary: plain english recap of big wins and red flags
Progress: updates on important numbers
Problems: most pressing blocking issues
Priorities: the 20% of tasks this week that will produce 80% of the results
More detail below. Would love to hear any feedback!

I work for a company that makes online courses for education, government, business and more
This company primarily designs instructional courses/systems/etc. for education--at the moment, I would almost say exclusively--but we have to keep our market open to more than just that.
Right now, the company's slogan is: "Designing Instruction for a New Generation."
We're currently working on re-doing this slogan, and some contenders that have popped up are:
- "Leading innovators of eLearning design"
- "Leading the eLearning revolution"
- "Limitless instruction for a limitless world"
- "Tomorrow's teaching, today"
- "Changing instruction in a changing world"
- "Learning. Anytime, anywhere, anyone."
My question is, does anyone on r/marketing have any input on any of these? Are any of the new suggestions better? Is the original slogan better as is? Any other suggestions?
Appreciate any feedback. Cheers!

How Do You Know? Stand Out Results
When was the last time you surveyed your clients? I don’t mean ALL your clients. I mean the ones that you want more of, your Ideal Clients? If you don’t ask the ones you want to cultivate and attract more of, how do you know you’re doing everything possible to win them as clients, keep them as repeat business and convert them into referral advocates for your business?
A well thought out strategic marketing plan will keep you accountable for these types of tactics. Look at your client list and determine the heroes
Understanding what your Ideal Client is looking for from your business and what they value among your services will result in better insight for your target market marketing strategy campaigns. and zeros. In other words, for now, ignore the clients that request products outside your profit scope, demand discounts and, frankly, the ones you don’t care working with no matter what fee they pay. In this exercise, we want to focus on the clients that bring in the most revenue, fits within your service profile and that you LOVE working with and would take their call at any time of day. These people represent your Ideal Client and are the target market you want to attract more of to build your business. Finally, rank these current clients on a matrix scale of profitability, compatibility and product requests. Then take the top ten as your cream of the crop clients to use as your customer advisory board. You don’t necessarily need to publicly call them that but know those are the ones you want to get feedback from to take your business to the next level of success.
After doing the legwork above, give them a call and ask them how you’re doing. What could you have done better? What makes your company stand out from your competition? Make them feel completely free to be as candid as possible. Otherwise, the answers you’ll receive will be vanilla and useless for you to gain insight into your target markets wants, needs, desires and frustrations. An even more effective use of the client survey is to have a skilled outside marketing strategist conduct them. As a professional who has conducted hundreds of surveys they can often gleam more information from the client than someone from the business because the client knows the responses are anonymous and the strategist can push the client further from, “They provide good customer service.” to “They think of everything so I don’t have to; making the process comfortable and easy.”.
The easiest pitfall to small business owners often run into is assuming you know everything about your client. It is imperative to check in with them often, in order for your business to move forward. And really, we all know the adage of what happens when you assume…You make an ASS out of U and ME. Market smarter and simply ask.
