CLUELESS IDIOT INTERNET MARKETER OF THE WEEK…
December 9th, 2008I actually do read some of my spam, mostly to laugh at how insanely stupid most of it is.
But occassionally I get something that looks like it might have actually been well meant but demonstrates such a total lack of cluefullness that I have to just shake my head in amazement.
David Thibos is one such clueless marketing troll. Today he wrote me to say:
I sent you an email a few weeks ago about selling your coffees through our stores? If you want to make a push, now’s the time.
We work with buyers from thousands of grocers, specialty food stores, large retailers, mail-order catalog companies and Internet shopping sites. We need a larger variety of coffees they can choose from, hence my email to you.
If you’re interested in selling your line to more stores visit us at http://www.WiseRep.com. We guarantee sales.
Sincerely,
David Thibos
