Tricky emails

Hi Cherie,

Good post and great point.

I was thinking about this when I read that Twitter has changed their platform to block unconfirmed auto-responses due to spam complaints by their users.

That was a technique taught by two of the prominent leaders we see regularly, and condemned by another iconic leader.

So I guess the message is that somethings may seem like a good idea at the time.

Excellent point. If you have to resort to deception then you are desperate ! Honesty is always the best policy and the only way to go !

You Are so right!

Hey Cherie,

That is no lie....I have even watched my wife get attacked by a MLM company on Facebook IM within 3 seconds of her getting online. I have found that article marketing,ppc and video marketing is the best way to educate people, not try to sell them.

This industry is not for everyone and not everyone would be successful especially if they are not taught properly how to go about networking and providing soultions to people.

Great job on the video by the way!

come correct!

I feel you. I am now getting unsolicted calls to my home, marketers are finding my number on my website, then they call me, hi will, I see you are with so and so company, I justed called to invite you to a special webinar going on tonight and they proceed to leave the info.

I have not anwered live yet, BUT, I'm bout to get up in some people's face.

Talk about no class.

I like what Robert said, the best marketing, especailly online, is to educate people not sell them.

Great topic.
