Free Naming and Branding Consultants and Resources

Marketing Wank: Last year, MarketingFix attempted to fix their own marketing and get Up2Speed, only to realize a few weeks later that they'd have to change their name again--to MarketingWonk.

Realizing the marketing value in poking fun at their own mistake, they were quick to issue a press release suggesting the top ten reasons for this naming and branding fiasco. And, following this notorious marketing fix and the humorous discussion that followed the press release, MarketingWank was registered by this wanker.

Anyway, the team at MarketingWonk seemed to know their new name would not be their last, even as they issued the press release, noting:

Together, we are Team MarketingWonk! (for the next few weeks, anyway), the single source for no-nonsense Internet marketing news, also offering consulting, research and related services.

Already, they've changed their name again--to MarketingVox.
