Re: I NEED YOUR IMPORTANT BRAINS /THIS IS ABOUT SPAMMING

Hi All,
Kathy , You can post any link that you want in my forum when I open one..lol
Here is my view on spamming..
I have received numerous emails from people that I have accepted as friends in ALP, which is all fine and dandy.

Suddenly  I start getting emails of products from people that I do Not know... Which in my mind is SPAM.
After these emails I think of as Spam.... I receive an invitation to become my friend.

 If one it to become a friend just to send spam ?
What kind of friend it that?
I understand that we need to network to succeed and contacts are needed to build networks.
I enjoy looking into what my friends have to offer and respect their decisions to choose what they are promoting.

I have chosen the programs that have worked well and continue to work extremely well for me.
Dont You?

No disrespect intended of this post... It is just my thoughts.

Best Regards
Dennis

Kathy and Friends!

I have noticed every since I have been a member that Spamming (Actually it should be Flamming) a persons forum is and will be a problem.

Now, I do not have any forums so I do not have a problem with this.  I do post in others forums (When I have something to say) but the majority of the times I visit a forum and the forum it's self is nothing more than a person advertising their business.

When I mentioned Flamming, for those that do not know it is when a person will visit a persons web site and if they have a contact link, the person will send their business information via their contact link.  This is very poor taste and is usually done by inexperienced and desperate marketers.

There is a way to prevent all of this from happening and that is to moniter all messages that are being posted.  When someone wants to post, all you have to do is to reject the post and send the member the reason their post was rejected.

I have had a couple of posts rejected, but I have never taken it personal, I just feel that we may not be Like Minded People.

We have joined together to build one of the best marketing programs that is available today, so let's not destroy it by any petty arguments.  Let's be considerate of other people and educate instead of quibiling!

I say this in love and not to be obstinate.

I don't spend as much time here as I used to due to the constant ads.  I came to this community to see if I could learn business techniques from others.  I constantly receive emails from ads and forum invites all day long.  I'm pretty sure I miss some important invites but I usually just delete them anymore.

One thing I would like to see is for this community to actually come together to help each other.  Don't help someone with the hidden agenda of trying to help yourself first.  Probably 95% of the people in these communities have a business already they are trying to work.  They should be able to come to these forums and find marketing tips or how steps on how to network in their own communities.

I don't like when I read forums and most of the replies are about peoples business.  I don't really care about the business - I've come to the forum to try to learn something that I can use in my business.

This community is about building relationships.  You should be able to email anyone in your friends list and sincerely ask for help.  When I'm saying "help", I don't mean please come join my program.  Help can just be some words of encouragement or simple advice.

My dear Kathy!  :-)

You have the best intentions of anyone here @ ALP.  I know you never mean to spam......you just get a little too excited about your programs sometimes.....LOL.....but that is okay!  ;-)

Your enthusisam inspired us all.......believe me!

Now, what is SPAM?  I think this is a pretty simple question to answer.




No......it isn't that aweful tasting crap that Hormel has been trying to convinvce us for years that it is so good for you.  Come on....that stuff tastes like dirt!

Anyway.....to answer your question:

  • SPAM in someone else's forum is basically going in there and blatantly posting an ad for YOUR product or service.
  • Some don't even comment on the subject of the thread....bad news!
  • Some will comment on the thread subject....bu then @ the bottom of their post......they'll tell everyone ---> "Hey check this out!"


The latter is not counting their signature.  This can be quite annoying to the owner of the forum.....whom.....by the way......should be shown some respect in regards to the subject of the thread THEY CHOSE.

They weren't necessairly looking to discuss tyour latest "ad-blaster" or jungle juice....or downline buidler..." they were looking to dicuss THIER THING.

If you have something that is revelant and ties in with what they are discussing....then I would say that is more than acceptable by most here @ ALP.

Keep doin what you do Kathy......you are rising to the top of your class!

~ Drummerboy Keep on thinking positive…..thank God for everything that’s good in your life……..and make it a great week!
