Dont Be A Spammer!! Avoid Using This Marketing Method.
Written by David Nieuwenhoven on Dec 6, 2010 5:06 pm
There is a new type of email spam tactic that sadly a lot of network marketers have been using lately.
12 months ago I had never seen this, and yet today in my inbox there are at least a dozen of these.
This is how they usually start....
How is your ABC business going? Is it working well for you? Or.....
I was searching on the internet (or Google) and I came across your ABC business and was wondering how it’s going for you? Or.....
HI David I see you are in ABC Company and I was wondering if it was going well for you?
The catch is that when you reply to the email the sender then sends you “Their company” deal with things like......
“You should try this and make $500 a day doing nothing”! or....
“That’s great have you seen this?”.....
This type of marketing may work for some people but ultimately it is still spam and it means you are pitching and selling to people which is exactly why people DONT BUY.
If you have been guilty of these new tactics then please STOP!!!!
Use this network and others to learn how to use “Attraction marketing” so only interested people come to you rather than you bulk emailing people and ruining it for yourself and others.
I also wanted to post this as some people on this network have been doing this to me and it guys and girls “it doesn’t work!”
If you want to survive and make money on the internet take this post as a free lesson on “what not to do to build your network marketing business”

Don't Be a Spammer
Hi David,
I've been getting more of this junk too. I never reply. If they don't have an autoresponder with an unsubscribe link I report it as spam.
Have also been getting more of the idiotic robocalls as well with the usual junk about how I should go to some website to find out how I can legally make 10 grand a week.
You may be right about it coming from people on this network as it has increased since I became a member here.
I definitely agree with your point-- thanks for posting!
I've gotten several of these
I've gotten several of these e-mails. I also got a phone call about my business and they leave a message and when you call, it's a recording about a system to get generate leads and such.
Spammers
Hi Deb, yes If only people received correct training by their upline or mentors then we wouldnt have these problems.Also they ruin it for all the legitimate people out there and do more damage than good for the network marketing industry.:)
More of the Same
Hi David,
This is must more of the same. Last week I was receiving the generic emails with links to Canadian drugs. Many of those emails came from people in my own organization and when I investigated I learned those addresses has been hacked and hijacked. Who knows...maybe people even got those emails from ME!!!
There will always be these guys around because if their bots can mail a couple million emails there will be enough positive responses to make some money. Same applies to those phone calls as well, which are technically legal because you were advertising and they are offering a product/service relevant to your ad (some of the amazing fine print in that law...).
As savvy marketers, we know when it's spam. Tag it, ignore it, and move on. Like Jim Rohn says, if you chase the birds you end up leaving the field.
