Would you like this clown for a "grandfather"?

>> When he can't even get your name right?

How often do you get this kind of guff?

This reminded me of a cartoon that I've always found amusing.

The man who sent the email is hopelessly lost in the Great Mire of Marketing Waffle.

But it doesn't stop him asking you to follow and get stuck too.

Consider what he offers - unlimited emails. I assume he means unlimited email?addresses,?but his grasp of English is sketchy at best.

However there is little limit to his $99 generosity. You will get a chatbot working for you. Good luck with that.

But his offer ignores one essential element.

You get a series of "tools" - but not the one thing that really matters.

And it's not a technique, or a tip, or a trick - or a tool.

It's a unique benefit.

How is that list bonanza - even assuming it's any good - going to make you a profit?

Is it superior in some way? Is it better collated than other lists? More recent? Proven to get response? Contain wealthier people or firms? Enable you to select the right prospects more easily?

If not, even if he got your name right, you still wouldn't end up with what you want: more money.

Have you ever noticed, as you contemplate the marvels of The Great Digital Wonderland, that most of its denizens don't understand even the bare basics of selling.

So before you look for a grandpa I have a better idea for you.

It is called marketing know-how.

Too good to be true? Or will you?wager $1 to see if I'm talking piffle or not ?

Best,

Drayton
