Ask HN: Best startup marketing you've come across this year
- debacle 14y agoI don't know if it qualifies as a startup, but I've been seeing ideeli ads everywhere and once they figured out how angry people got at clicking on an ad for a sale and being sent to the homepage, I'm guessing their conversions spiked way up. I finally bit the bullet last night and ordered from them. I worry for my financial future.

- sixQuarks 14y agoNot sure if Pinterest started this trend, but their signup process is genius. You need to get an "invite" to join, which always arrives within 48 hours. It makes you want to join because it's a "privelage" to be accepted. It's very subtle, but smart marketing.
