	How To Give (And Take) Constructive, Helpful Criticism On Direct Marketing Ideas, Concepts, Design, And Copy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)

		Also keep these points in mind: In direct marketing, the most useful criticism is based on knowledge of what’s working in your marketplace right now, based on recent test results the copywriter or agency may be unaware of.

	What's Wrong With Multi-Level Marketing?

		No one can perfectly predict "X," and the situation is not nearly as simple as considered here, but the objective for marketeers is to forecast "X" as closely as possible in order to provide lasting value to all parties involved: to avoid missed opportunities as well as waste, loss, or failure.
