The Final Four: Marketing Bloggers Bracketology

John Moore at Brand Autopsy has dissected and bracketed the  tourney of Marketing Blogs, coming up with this Final Four (all #1 seeds Correction: MP:DailyFix in as a #3 seed):

Seth Godin vs Church of the Customer
Creating Passionate Users vs Marketing Profs: DailyFix

Each of these Final Four talks about customer experience more than anything else. Their presence on the floor makes their readers better.

Invited to the dance as a #14 seed, I was immediately ousted by AdJab (probably wasn’t even close…a sentimental favorite who recently hung it up). Interesting battles between CK and Drew, who shared a pre-game meal just last week. Props to fellow Iowan, Mike Wagner for making the Sweet 16.

If we’re having a pool…I’d think it’s going to be Seth and CPU, and the emotional favorite right now has to be CPU considering what’s going on over there (scary stuff).

Thanks for the hard work, Dr. Moore.

    Sorry, but I am not buying this marketing March madness. A #14 seed ousted in the first round? You were robbed! And four #1 seeds to the big dance? Has never happened in the history of the NCAA tournament. How about some upsets baby?!

    Rush … to clarify, three #1 seeds made it to my Final Four along with one #3 seed. Take a look at the bracket, you will notice many an upset. A #11 seed and #7 seed made it to the Elite Eight.

    Congrats on making the big dance. Maybe you can “replay” your game by having a user generated bracket. That’ll get some people talking…….

    John,
    Your post looks like lots of work and a lot of fun. Thanks for pointing out so many great marketing blogs. But look out for Sansone next year. He’s got tools.
