Budding brands and those with gazillions of fans alike have one thing in common - a hunger to give things away.
When you're looking at a report suggesting that the start-up cost of client acquisition through AdWords or traditional marketing is nearly always higher than the initial purchase price of your product, it's extremely tempting to brainstorm your way down to the lowest form of marketing...the give-away. Let me argue that we must not and should not go there.

All I’ve been hearing about recently is
Pinterest. The pinboard styled start-up that allows you to create image-based
collections of things that matter to you. A great and simple concept, and
having been a member for over a month now I can honestly say I love it.
Pinterest has found its way into the hearts
and browsers of millions of people. But why? Well, in the past couple of years
there’s been a growing need to share things. I say need; it’s more a “want”
from people. We don’t need to share any of this information, but we’re compelled
to.
