2012 Boney Awards

2012 Boney Awards | Public Relations & Social Media Insight | Scoop.it

My three or four readers may remember that we launched the “Boney Awards” to honor (or is that “dishonor”) excellence in boneheaded communications three years ago.  

 

As those steadfast readers know, I had originally envisioned a gala event on a grand scale – black tie, the Waldorf Astoria and a star-studded cast of presenters.  Sadly, I found no takers for the sponsorships I planned to offer as part of the package in conjunction with CommPro.  I couldn’t even get commitments for hero sandwiches and beer at the local Knights of Columbus hall.  Undaunted I press on with the announcement of this year’s Boney Award winners which include politicians, editors, movie and TV stars, among others....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

And this fine list wouldn't be complete without the bonehead layoff news release and layoff announcement by CitiGroup. 2012's worst in my opinion.

READ THIS - Times up. That is about all the time you have to grab someone's attention in today's fast moving data stream. Don't spend hours writing a great post and forget the KICK BUTT title.

When I was at HP the editorial team did title tests and found noticable performance improvements.

I need to get a LOT better at writing titles that draw people in! It's an important element - but at the same time, the smart, funny titles that are more like headlines, don't do as well for SEO organic results imho
