"Amazing Marketing"

I am not speaking of the Guru's here.

I am speaking of the people who market by using every means possible to out smart the rest of us.

They market by writing ads with all caps and spamming us to death, and think we are not smart enough to know what it is.

They make up these ridiculous ads promising unheard of wealth. Make $90,000.00 dollars in 30 days etc.

I have one free email account that I used just for FFA'S a short while ago. Since I don't use FFA's any longer, I have not used this email for about eight months.

I still check it often only to find the same spamming going on as if I were still using it.

This is not SPAM, you agreed to receive email when you recently posted to my FFA site. This after eight months of not using it.

Now they have come up with another brilliant idea, trying to out smart those of us who publish a newsletter.

They go to where our newsletters are posted to help us promote our newsletter. They grab all those that offer a free ad.

They don't bother that most say one free six line ad for all new subscribers. So they start sending us email after email with free ad in the subject line. The from only has a first name, George, Rick, Paul etc.

If you hit reply you will notice they are all from the same email address. So you set your email to block those messages into the trash bin.

They evidentially don't think we are that smart or they are so good at tricking other people that we will not know what they are doing.

Can you imagine what these people could accomplish if only they used their brain to do things the proper way.

These guy's could be the next Guru's if they put their energy to something useful and not use it to try to trick the rest of us.

I guess some will go through life being dishonest, it must be more fun for them.
