Canada Votes on October 14, 2008

With an election quickly approaching, are you ready? Has your marketing plan already been solidified? Is search engine advertising part of your election strategy? If not, why not?

Two issues appear poised to dominate the cycles for the Canadian Federal election: the economy and the environment. What better way to show that you understand both than through a green advertising plan in which you are light on printed materials and signs, and invested well in digital mediums. And because, search engine advertising is one of the most affordable and effective forms of advertising available, it not only makes environmental sense, it is good economics.
