No, not Penguin. This is what Panda was supposed to take care of more that one year ago. But hey, it's Google. They spread FUD and webmasters start to shit their pants. "Hey, spun content is going to get you in trouble". Yeah, whatever. When it does, I'll turn to the original content. That was one year ago. Now, everybody is like "over-optimizing anchors is going to get you into trouble" and "remove links and beg Google for forgiveness".
Remember, Google is a bot. Bot can't tell good content from bad content. What bot can do is to figure out what article is about and if's totally screwed grammatically. So, you are only in trouble if you spin so much that content is total garbage or if you put link with "payday loan" anchor inside the article about "trout fishing". These Google bot can figure out and Panda will screw you if you do that.
However, if your spin is 40-50% unique and read OK and the article is actually about the stuff you are linking to, you're good for now.
All this is my opinion only, of course. Act on it accordingly.
You need both and you need C) as well.
Here's my take on it all. Your SEO need to go in three directions.
1) Establishing authority
2) Establishing relevancy
3) Ranking for keywords
This blueprint covers mostly number 3. Pushing ranking of the particular page for the particular keyword. One year ago it was pretty much enough if you did a bit of 1 and 2. Penguin made 1 and 2 more important so if you only focus on 3, sooner or later you might get hit (when they run their Penguin script and it comes across the area of Google's index that affects your site directly). 1 and 2 do not affect ranking for the particular keyword as much as they help not to get screwed in a long run.
In your case B campaign will take care of relevancy. Having this sort of promotion might not give a huge boost for "anger management advice" but will tell Google that you site is about "anger management" and related things thus you have relevancy. C will take care of keyword boost and you (and original blueprint for that matter) don't have any authority building components.
Authority building is probably deserves a separate blueprint on it's own. There is more to it than just a simple PageRank boosting.
It is all my IMHO. Wild guesses, so to speak.
