 | [Chene Cundill] It has now dawned on ad agencies, their clients and the marketing industry that people (potential customers/consumers) are more likely to respond to information and offers that are relevant to them and their specific interests and are communicated through the channels with which they are comfortable. It's the power of one-on-one communication. |
 | [Nick Altini] The ever-growing volume of consumer complaints relating to unsolicited and unwanted commercial messages seems to be having a legislative effect, as the issue of privacy and the right to reject and not receive unsolicited commercial messages is a theme in existing pieces of legislation and in the draft Protection of Personal Information (PPI) law. |
 |  [Lyn Davis] Communicating has become much easier since the days when messages were written, sealed inside a dirty old bottle and flung into the sea. The writer in desperate hope that someone, somewhere, would find it and read it. Today, marketers and advertisers have no need of SOS communication tactics as there's a varied, constantly evolving media landscape on tap.

 | [Jason Stewart] Many businesspeople realise that, from a marketing perspective, word of mouth (WOM) is the most influential force with respect to how your consumers view your brand, especially regarding the decision of whether to purchase or not. But what's less known is how to stimulate WOM for your brand - and that's the focus of this article. |
 | [Herman Manson] South Africa has various pieces of legislation in place supposedly protecting consumers from unsolicited commercial communication. Unfortunately, they seem to be worth little as they are often vague, lack enforcement mechanisms readily accessible to the public or still lack the implementation systems and tools envisioned by the legislation to protect them. |

 | great idea, i think WASPA has something similar for SMS. what would be cool is if a pvt individual could enter his email addy and see all the bulk email lists he was on and delete those he didn't want. the requirement would be for people to register the bulk email lists with a central regulator. unfrotunate thing is that unlike WASPA there isn't a central regulator .... or could the DMASA be appointed? |

 | [Issa Sikiti da Silva] Direct mail is not dead and is not on life support, DMA CEO Brian Mdluli said on Thursday, 30 June 2011, amid fears that direct marketing - a lucrative industry with R15 billion spend (2009 figures) - is feeling the pinch as the CPA starts to 'reclaim its territory'. Mdluli was a panellist at the Journal marketing debate, hosted by Future Group in association with Absa and Sappi. |
 |  [Mike Silver] When Christian Bale donned his plastic body suit to fight Gotham City's evil-doers, he was near invincible in his vigilantism crusade. In an environment fraught with corruption, inefficiency and lack of service delivery, Batman's approach was really a last resort for a desperate city in search of freedom.
