Profits.ie – fail
Posted on February 17, 2010, under daily life.
We all hate spam, it wastes time both the sender and the receiver, hurts businesses, mine in the respect that I have to again waste time, and yours, because I know I will never, ever, ever work with you. And you know what’s worse than the fact that I will never work with you ? It’s the fact that I will tell everyone I know what a usesless shower of crap your company is as they have to resort to stupid / illegal marketing tactics to get their word out.
So without further ado here is the email I and a few others received today from Profits.ie (sorry, no link love either).
Good Morning,
We have had phenomenal interest in the Sales & Marketing Course we have been running for the last few weeks. So much so, that we are AGAIN running it this Friday 19th (Between 9am and 1pm)
In the Wicklow Enterprise Park training room in Wicklow Town.
Before sending this email we have already 5 confirmed companies on the course. We have an engineering, retail and accountants already signed up
So I have 5 seats left. That’s all and they will go quick. Due to time constraints this may be the last time we run this. We normally only run this for our own clients.
Please let me know ASAP if you are interested in coming. It’s a hand’s on course in how to do cost effective (LOW COST) direct marketing that gets results.
A taste of what you will learn
· Why direct marketing is the cheapest advertising & gets far better results
·
· Proven Sales letter techniques and tips
· List formation and filtering
· Database creation techniques
· Direct mail techniques that work
· Applying a systematic approach to your marketing
These are just a few of the things you’ll learn. This is a course on LOW COST sales & marketing for small business.
If you want to know more give me a call.
The last 5 seats will be allocated on a first come first serve basis.
CALL NOW to confirm your place

Spammers suck. What’s remarkable to me is that it must work, otherwise they wouldn’t survive. Who are all these people buying crap from spam mails? If I see them on the street, would I recognize their utter stupidity and avoid them?
