For many of you know that I follow Google and their marketing strategies, today is another holiday that they have marketed around. Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day which takes place on the 3rd Monday of January once a year. For many of you that are history buffs, Martin Luther King played a prominent role in the mid to late 60's, until he was assassinated in 1968. The 1960's was a very instrumental piece of American history in regards to the Vietnam War, the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963, Martin Luther King, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and several other factors and issues surrounding our history in the 1960's.
What is very unique about marketing is that Google teaches us different marketing techniques. Just in name recognition in itself is a lesson to be learned. How do you brand and market yourself? Do you market just yourself and/or your companies name. And if you click onto the Google logo with Martin Luther King's face, it will take you to a few links defining who Martin Luther King was.
Some topics in regards to marketing and branding.
Here are a few other pieces that I did on Google and their marketing strategies. Many of which we can learn from and apply our own methods to use when it comes to marketing. And for many tools that Google offers, please read this post. Google & Marketing
