"Direct Mail Chain Effect" one-sheet ad slick for SALEular SOC [Savings On Co...Michael Freeman
Direct mail coupons and inserts place a large burden on resources with a redemption rate of less than 1%. In 2006, over 286 billion coupons were printed but only 2.6 billion were redeemed, costing advertisers $1.8 billion. This method also wastes paper and impacts transportation systems. A new mobile shopping portal called SALEular SOC allows consumers to opt-in to receive instant digital coupons on their phones, providing savings without the waste of print.

SALEular SOC [Savings On Comman] - trade ad one-sheet slickMichael Freeman
The document discusses how traditional passive television advertising is becoming less effective as viewers can skip commercials. It argues for a more reactive brand recall experience using tools like instant coupons, rebates, and interactive ads on mobile devices. This reactive approach gives consumers savings incentives and product information on demand to influence purchasing decisions at the point of sale. The company Saleular SOC presents itself as leading this emerging area of mobile advertising and interactive marketing.
Fast Facts on "Participatory Direct Democracy"Michael Freeman
More than two-dozen countries around the world have held “national electorate referendums” as some form of “Direct Democracy” since the mid-1800s. But do you know how many times the United States of America has held national referendums to solicit its voters over the last 220-plus years? Well, let us provide the quick answer: There is no historical precedence.
Judging from empirical research conducted by World Economic Forum and the United Nations, it is readily apparent that various forms of “Direct Democracy” (such as national referendums, ballot measures, etc.) have had some degree of translatable, beneficial impact on key European and Asian countries’ standard of living and economic competitiveness measurements.
The prospect of holding "National Electorate Referendums," while presenting potential logistical and cost challenges, is only proposed as option for TANC to call and only if Congress and the President did not "ultimately accede to the will of the people" on TANC-authored/sponsored domestic soci-economic reform legislation. Actually, this is the just the second prong of a blueprint for "Participatory Direct Democracy" -- the primary platform is an "Electorate Legislative Consortium" made up of a "rotating pool" of nonelected/nonpartisan American citizens who would solicit all key societal segments and craft reform legislation on a truly "consensus" basis...featuring "America's Best & Brightest" from key college academic circles as well.
