You've got mail is music to my ears every time
I come online. This means my business is really going some where.
I open my mailbox and there are about 70 Offers along with my regular mail,
which many call SPAM. Now, I have my own business and I am not looking for a joint venture at this time, however,
I am not so quick to get in an uproar over the situation.
The reason I mention these famous offers and as some call SPAM, is because it causes so much friction between businesses.
NO matter what you do or say you will always receive these emails.
You can report 50 people a day, they will not stop. And I can see it happening, you get stressed out, frustrated over
these spams. It basically takes up half your day fretting about it.
And quite honestly it takes away from you work.
The question is: What are you going to do about it?
The answer is SIMPLE. NOTHING.
And this is why:
As Business Entrepreneurs we all have one thing in common. Success and making a living. When you get these emails and you take
valuable time and energy to email them, tell them off, yell at them, curse at them and threaten them. Well guess what? You are killing
your business. You must think ahead from a professional state of mind.
ONE DAY, you just may need some of these people.
Some may end up being prospects, but once you start ranting and raving about the spamming,
you Kill every chance you have in ever gaining professional respect and
possible future clients.
They will remember you. And NOT as a nice business person. So, bare in mind if you are one of those people
who send off those nasty emails, give it a second thought.
It is all part of networking.
To be completely honest, when I get online and I see these offers, I scam through them quickly. And then delete them. Sometimes
I am just not in the mood to even look at them.
And hitting the DELETE button is just so easy. It is not stressful or
frustrating. My day goes so much smoother when I don't concern myself with some people who spam me. It is not worth the
aggravation.
I am writing this article because in plain truth, this is a large part of all our businesses,
and we must take into account the circumstances that many may inherit once they start going on a spamming rampage.
Take all the factors into consideration before you jump the gun and send nasty emails. Is this worth the
aggravation that you will indeed endow? Or is it easier to just send an email and say thank you
but no thank you?
Or just hit the DELETE button?
OR, what about sending them YOUR offer?
If we all really want to remain on a professional level, we must not bother ourselves with spam. It is part of being in business,
and it will not end, no matter how nasty you are to these people.
In fact, maybe we should all prospect our spammers and possibly build a business relationship. A spammer is a client,
because they are coming to you with business offers and opportunities,
just return the favor and you just may increase your business even more.
So take what could be a bad experience and reverse it into a professional business prospect.
