Any interesting articles about business? *Free ePie!*

[evisiron]

Greetings! In class today our lecturer asked us to eventually present an interesting article somehow linked with marketing (the general components are Product, Price, Place and Promotion).

I have seen so many cool links pop up here, I thought it wise to ask if anyone knew of any really cool articles, like a crazy promotional stunt or really random product.

Please don't go searching for stuff though (unless you have to much free time), but if you know of a good article or a few keywords that will lead me to one, please do post! :smallbiggrin:

Thanks all! *Starts distributing tasty pie to people reading thread*

as for a really crazy promotional stunt, try www.mezzacotta.net, a website that's supposed to sell for 1 million dollars while no-one knows what it is.

not sure if that is what you mean:smallconfused:....

Old scam is old.

mises.org has a lot of fun and contentious stuff about marketing, value and price.
weburbanist.com is always spamming articles about "(adjective), (adjective) and (adjective) advertising campaigns".

This is one of the most awesome promotional stuff one could ever think off.
