I can be an effective account manager and help market a site for which I don't necessarily use or love the product, but if it's a quality product I will do what's within my power to go that extra mile to give them the extra "perks" of having me as their account manager. Thanks for the comment. Stuart I agree 100% – when I apply this to my clients I firmly stand behind the product or service they are offering.

Thanks for the comment.

In the dictionary of Internet Jargon, next to the word Perkonomics, should be a picture of you. The general U.S. population will not put up with "half-hearted" or "only working within the contractual agreement" when it comes to commerce. How often do we hear others, or ourselves, say, "Couldn't the guy have at least thrown in a little extra?" or "You think she would have called me sooner since she knew I was leaving town." The consumer today has high expectations for merchants. Additionally, when we use best practices: honesty, responsibility, thoughtfulness, hard work ... the extra-ordinary or "perkonomics" becomes second nature. We don't have to "watch" for the opportunity, we (especially you) LIVE the opportunity. Of course there will be those who take advantage of you. Of course there will be those who will treat you like dirt even though you have gone above and beyond for them. But do we change what we do based on a few people's responses? If you know you are doing the right thing, don't stop. Keep up the outstanding work and the excellent blog posts. Sue Wendy –

However, I hope that these efforts aren't just short-tail gimmicks. In order to have a great campaign...you need a great product. I love the concept and effort put into developing cool perkonomics.
