Christian group raps against sins of the “front hug.”
Saw a video this weekend about the “dangers” of groin-to-groin front hugs among teens. We’ll go out on a limb here, and guess most mature people think there are better topics to rally against than the front hug. Of course, this group offers an alternative called the “Christian Side Hug.” (Believe me, I am NOTÂ making this up!)
As marketers, we’re not the target audience of many of the products and services we help clients with, but we can put ourselves in the shoes of those audiences. And I just can’t believe this particular effort hits the target audience in any way that’s just short of hilarious. (Which means it will probably go viral, but for reasons OTHER than intended.)
There are kick@ss outreach campaigns out there. Two of our favorites are the “Scratch & Sniff dirty diaper“Â done for the Milwaukee United Way, and the “Safe Sexting” campaign warning about texting photos to your boy/girlfriend you’re bound to regret. (Click on images to read more.)

Hi people, all human situations have their inconveniences. We feel those of the here and now but never see or feel those of the future; and hence we often make troublesome changes without amendment, and frequently for the worst. HAPPY NEW YEAR

I am new to blogging, so I feel like I am in the “just taking notes” phase. But when I do find a blog topic I like, I do comment because I genuinely like what has been said or the information was helpful to me. I am officially linked to your blog now, so I will be checking in often! Thanks for all the great advice.

Glad our blog is helpful. We think keeping things brief and adding images really helps.
