From the, "Men Without Chutzpah" file

"You try to live on $500K in this town" A response to Barack Obama's call to cap salaries of bank executives accepting TARP money at $500K is getting a strangely ferocious response. Defense of wealthy people in an economic downturn? One where, in January, we bled 20,000 jobs per day each day? If you'd like to see some expert media relations work, keep reading stories like these. And know, if auto workers and office workers could afford this level of media relations, they would most likely still be working.

About the Author: Eric Reid

I am the Social Media Services Manager for Off Madison Ave. I've been with the company since 2006, when I was hired to do SEO, and link building in particular. When social networking sites started cropping up, at first I started using them to create backlinks - but they weren't the best for that, given all of the "nofollow" attributes. However, I did see the potential for all of the direct referral traffic they represent. Since then I've been actively pursuing both tactics for clients: Links that can help them for search, and social postings that get them involved in the conversation. It's about the coolest job you could ever get. ;)
