The marketing industry is BAD at marketing itself
A recurring theme in my blog posts. This time the criminal is Haymarket, the principal publications owner for our industry.
For some reason, trying to read Charlie Hoult and Rory Sutherland’s blogs on the Brand Republic Site this morning… Apparently my login is no longer valid.
Curious.
My print subscription still arrives.
Then it says send a password reminder…. not working either my email is not recognised.
Recognising there’s an issue coming up the site suggests
This email address is not currently registered with Brand Republic. Please check you have typed it correctly
This is bollocks as I’ve been online on BR for years. Same email address, same password.
No link to an email for the mythical administrator, no link to a contacts page, no apparent means of contacting. GRRR
on Contacts page I get a long list of people (mostly in ad sales) NONE of which are administrators for everything.
I am tempted to email Rufus Olins, the Managing director of Haymarket Brand Media
Hey, but what’s the chance he has a Google Alert set up to find references to his name online….?
