Does This Remind You of Any Lists You Subscribe To?

July 18, 2008

We all seem to hate “yappy” email list owners. People who can’t shut up for even a day. They have a lot in common with this dog…

    Yes.

    Just while watching the video I got 2 email messages from IM marketers pimping products. That reminds me to go in an unsubscribe from some of these lists before the yapping drives me crazy.

    I missed it, did they say the dog’s name was Howie Schwartz?

    Hmmh, not very funny for the recipients of either the barking dog or the equivalent IMers. At least the dog looks cute!

    I agree, I do think some marketers are like this. Not all, but the ones that send me a new offer everyday that is the “best product this year” quickly get an unsubscribe from me :)

    So, I guess like the dog you just start to ignore it/them!

    Nice! Gotta love the onion’s tongue in cheekiness! Thanks for sharing, Jack. You’re always good for either a good lesson or a welcome chuckle.

    maybe the dog barks because he is on too many mailing lists.

    I get a few people who mail kind of a lot but almost always useful information so I don’t mind.

    some marketers must realize getting into someone’s mail regularly is a privilege.

    it is almost like amway, pitch everyone all the time. why is it they don’t understand the value ($$ CASH) of actually building a relationship?

    I got an email from Yaro Starak today and he sent me to 2 very informative posts, was that so difficult?

    Jack always sends emails with valuable and useful information, tips, software, videos, dude do you ever slow down?

    Doesn’t it seem ironic when supposedly professional marketers obviously have not figured out the first thing about building relationships by providing value?

    No wonder so many of them could only say “web 2.0 does not convert” not so long ago.

    This dog would get the same filtering that the marketers get.

Got something to say?
