Dear Faceless Marketing Spammer Let's get one thing straight: pissing us off by bombarding our inboxes with your cookie-cutter marketing emails is not a strategy that will ever generate business for you from us. We receive hundreds of similar emails each week, each making the same promises as you. And then, as if by some miracle of irony, you follow up on your initial spammy send, expressing your surprise that you haven't heard back from us! Perhaps you imagine that your email got lost in transit, or maybe you think we accidentally overlooked it in our sheer excitement to collaborate with you? Let us assure you, our silence is not an oversight. Your follow-ups are like the encore performance of a terrible play—unwanted! The pièce de résistance, however, is when you cunningly use our own website's forms to try and sell us your services. The audacity is almost impressive. Our contact forms are intended for potential clients, not for you to peddle your unwanted wares! We have a few suggestions on what you should do with your marketing emails: Reflect: Take a moment to reflect on your strategy. Maybe there's a reason your emails are going unanswered? 😉 Redirect: Consider directing your efforts towards customers who actually express interest in your services. Radical, we know. Rest: Seriously. You're wasting your time, as well as harming the planet with the electricity and server resources that are used to send and deliver your unwanted emails. So give it a rest. In conclusion, dear marketing spammer, your persistence in filling our inboxes with unsolicited nonsense is not winning you any business. So please take your marketing emails and go away! Yours in eternal exasperation, All Frustrated Business Owners
