Marketing is DieingAnd, it could be dragging you and your business down with it.
Let me explain...
Traditional marketing is dieing a slow death at the feet of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube. The new THRIVING marketing model is built on totally different principals, and the best part is, your customers will LOVE you more then ever.
This new marketing model is 62% less expensive than what you're currently spending on marketing, and turns leads into instant customers that can't wait to buy from you. >>>> Click here to register, space is limited

WTF?!
Why Do People Keep Saying Stuff is Dead?
Outbreaks of what the computer scientist John Seely Brown calls "endism" have been rife in discussions about communications technology since the time of Plato, who opined that writing would destroy memory. In the 20th century, it was widely trumpeted that television would be the death of, first, radio and, later, movies.

Why
Do People Accept that Stuff is Dead?
#1: Statistics Make it Easy
There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.
Dumb Stats
NEVER base decisions on % growth rates on their own
Pinterest grew 4000% in 2011 – we absolutely need to have a strategy!
#2: Positioning
More! http://unbounce.com/noob-guide-to-online-marketing-infographic/
#3: It’s what thought leaders say!
The Internet is going to change marketing before it changes almost anything else, and old marketing will die in its path.
“Markets are conversations”
“Everything’s easier with fans”
