"Quality SEM is a significantly undervalued service and yet it has the potential to transform the profitability of any business.

Talk to almost any marketing executive about search engine marketing (or SEM) and soon after their eyes will glaze over and stifle a yawn and then start talking enthusiastically about the weather.

I suppose, on a general level, this is perfectly normal as it's not exactly a topic of conversation you'd bring up in a social context like a bar. But, on a business level, it's somehow a strange phenomenon when you're trying to educate them on how to expand their business model.

The industry itself, of course, talks incessantly about its benefits and the best practices, but unless you're a party to this cosseted cabal, the concept somehow eludes outsiders. Perhaps it's just far too too dense a subject.
