================== ARTICLE START ==================
I know that the majority of you at the time of this reading is
about tired of or is now accustomed to spam and telemarketing.
We are definitely tired of it, but I think we have grown to
accept it. But at least now there are spam filters that block
alot of it. One thing that I have learned from all of this, is
that this form of so called "marketing" being that of spam,
telemarketing(phone spam),and of course snail mail spam, is not
the way to conduct business in a civilized manner. It might work
for some people some of the time. For long term success and
successful relationship building, I doubt it. I equate this to
chaotic marketing. I don't see how anyone doing this type of
marketing is actually succeeding. As a matter of fact, its
rather monotone.
The spam that I receive and the telemarketing that I used to
receive all reads or sounds the same as any other form of spam.
Day in and day out, I see the same type of emails from people
trying to sell me on their business. Join my business, mine is
the greatest.Make lots of money. Meanwhile, the next spam down
from that one and so on is the same just a different persons
name attached to it.
I remember when I was a kid, my friends and I would go swimming
at a local pool and we would play a silly game which worked like
this. Go underwater, talk, and I will try to guess what you are
saying. What usually happens is, you go underwater... your
friend talks...you have no idea what he just said... he tries
again... you laugh... he laughs...ou swallow alot of water...
and you come up for air coughing with a bad taste in your mouth
realizing you almost drowned.
I received this one email not too long ago. The person writing
seemed interested in my business. I pointed him to my website
and told him if he has any questions just send me an email.
Well the joke was on me. He wasn't interested in my business.
He responded by begging me to get into his business."Please...
Please... will you get into my business". Huh? You have to beg
to get business? How long do you think you will last?Hmmmmmm.
To me, thats what most of the marketing that I see sounds
like.Talking underwater.I hear you, but I don't know what you
are saying because I really don't care. What usually happens in
this situation for most people, is they do not realize the
problem and they are doing what their upline told them to do or
they are copying what everyone else is doing. How can you stand
above the crowd if you are doing what everyone else is doing?
Bottom line, you can't and won't. Therefore, if you are doing
the same with your marketing, stop... re-think and plan what
you are doing... and stand above the rest. Don't drown in the
big pool of monotone marketing because noone hears you.
