Likeable: Social Media & Word of Mouth Marketing

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable company. Since it only launched on May 24, 2010, it has hardly had time to yet become notable. Although it is described as "award winning", there are no mentions of what awards it may have won. The only references given are from the firm's own website.

The company has actually been around for 4 years now. It was formerly The KBuzz but changed its name on May 24th, 2010. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kmalzone (talk • contribs) 14:22, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Unambiguous advertising with such a rosy point of view that it approaches glib but ultimately vacuous, deliberate nonsense: Likeable’s mission is to help build more transparent, responsive, & likeable companies, nonprofit organizations, and governments. We believe that social media, used well, is nothing short of transformational, not only in marketing, but in public relations, sales, customer service, and operations – and in breaking down silos to better connect companies internally and externally. We help build better brands – brands that really listen, deliver value, and respond to customers – brands that share and inspire likeable social content, that is, content that’s worthy of being shared online and offline, and “liked”, literally and figuratively. We know that in today’s world, every company, nonprofit, and even government, is a social publisher – and through Facebook and beyond, we help our clients produce, respond to, and inspire great text updates, images, videos, & other content– or what we call Likeable Media. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:34, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

I changed it around a bit so that there are more secondary sources, awards, etc. Please review again. Kmalzone (talk) 15:41, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
