		<description>&lt;!--%kramer-ref-pre%--&gt;[...] This post makes me sad. Yes, this kind of thing goes on all the time&#8230; unfortunately. It&#8217;s the kind of thing that gives the PR and marketing profession a bad reputation. The fact that it happens isn&#8217;t a reason to keep doing it. There are plenty of bad precedents out there - it doesn&#8217;t mean people should continue them.Exactly what &#8216;results&#8217; do these tactics achieve? Sure, plenty of people view a video, but to what end? How many click through to the companies&#8217; sites? How many actually make a purchase or take a specific action at the end of it, compared to the number that just feel spammed?Ackman said it himself - he can&#8217;t name his clients (although his LinkedIn profile already did) or the campaigns. What kind of company is he running that he can&#8217;t name his success stories out of fear?I&#8217;m disgusted.
