(i.e. Chris Brogan, Jason, Shaq, Ashton, Ryan Seacrest and so on) (they could do this in exchange of an sample of the product/services)<br><br>My firm specializes in small to medium size budget. However a lot of my clients are coming to me asking to do projects that are pro bono. I am not a big fan of it but I know times are tough and I am a big believer in karma but I try to go in it with the idea of that if a pro bono project works then the justification will be verified via a 3rd party source. (GOOGLE ANALYTIC do a before and after) Then I could use that as a testimonial. <br><br>Please keep an open mind that the concept of Pro Bono works are great for start ups and small players. I don't see the big boys and girls do pro bono project? <br><br>This economy is forcing everyone to become more creative!!! Think outside the box may sound cliche but it still works! @ Marc if you have no budget/little budget and less time….

My question pertains to this statement you wrote "Most of the channels were essentially a 3 month test. This gives us enough time to evaluate the results, continue it or bag it and move the money and resource towards channels that are performing"<br>How would you justify the bag it process to the CEO - because as a CEO I would feel this is a critical area due to the matter of money that was spent and didn’t bring any result.<br>I ask this because it is causing a major problem on my end because I lose clients BEFORE I can secure them because they would get mad at me if the ROI can't be justified. I tried to explain the law of probability but their expectation are so high I am wondering as a CMO of my firm if it simple a cost of doing business (meaning my firm would have to absorbed the cost as a market expense) but sincerely I feel that isn't an acceptable or logical explanation. <br>Adam- This is a great series! Thanks so much!! I would like your e-mail – can you kindly DM it to my twitter account @Silentbutsmart – I have an idea to pitch at you and I want to know what you feel about it.

I might take Adam's idea and go one step further with it and throw it back. Still formulating. What about no budget, little budget and less time? Thanks everyone.
