Ridiculously cheap to produce, and an easy marketing train to hop aboard for those with neither the vision or budget to take new chances. "Glee", on the other hand, is a full drama. More expensive to make, fewer episodes...BUT its' phenominal success shows there are other platforms for young music culture other than the one Seacrest lords over. As for his Ryan-ness, when the only thing you're truly known for is overexposure....how long can THAT last? The “Great Recession” carried ‘Idol’ long past its’ spoil date.

Today he was talking about a city wide ban on cell phone use in Stephenville. Just wanted to share that with you.

I agree that we need to turn our focus onto things that matter. Developing games to accrue points for brushing your teeth will lead to people finding ways around the task to cheat the system...it wouldn't make have better habits - it would just give them another way to think they are getting something over on someone.

She did and I am not sure if that was the work of her publicist or just her alertness to opportunity. Whomever was responsible, kudos for making it happen! It's these little things that so many business owners need to zero in on and make the most of when they are presented! Thanks for the feedback! Tell our Canadian friends "Howdy" from Texas! Have a great day! TZ Leanne!

A corporation like Domino's always has focus groups but then again - when were focus groups always right?? Like I promised I want to share my favorite place to order from: <a href="http://www.lizpizza.com" rel="nofollow">Liz Pizza in Plano</a>. Great quality and they're friendly. I don't have much luck at any restaurants but this one has been great! I'm jealous you have a reason to hit up NYC! Hi Karen!

I'd have to say that those Geico commercials where the boss showcases his new ideas to the gekko are VERY accurate. Geico has done an amazing job at keeping small and easy to remember taglines that they constantly repeat. "They're the bees knees" is too general, corny and well - old! I don't want to age myself but c'mon! Take care Stacey! Stacey,

They call it RESEARCH people!!!!! Try doing some! College kids (and now 10% of the unemployed, educated population) are DYING to become your research LAB RATS for just a few bucks! I didn't like the OLD Domino's, so that's for the head's up on the NEW Domino's.

Where were the focus groups and taste testers for Domninoes before they rolled that out? Haven't tried it yet but don't think I will now. For chains I'm a Papa John's fan but don't appreciate how they've added a delivery service charge... for real pizza I need to go to NYC! Lucky for me my son is at NYU so maybe once a year I can get the good stuff. Talk about target marketing in reverse!

I was hoping to see a couple of those "Taglines not ready for Prime-time". Throw us a couple bad ones (perhaps in your rough draft)...and maybe a couple that are out there today (yours or otherwise) to demonstrate one that you believe is GREAT! Cool topic though!!
