    How NOT to sell a product! ** ICQ Log **

    Just got this ICQ msg, and this is what took place. Do rep's even bother to make things personal anymore? At least take note of who you are speaking to!

    [17:25] Salesman Guy: hello
    [17:25] Sherm: hi there
    [17:26] Salesman Guy: you work with a network?
    [17:26] Sherm: um... not sure what you mean
    [17:26] Salesman Guy: you own any sites?
    [17:27] Sherm: yes i do. what kind of sites are you looking for?
    [17:27] Salesman Guy: any... let me introduce myself....
    [17:27] Salesman Guy: I run a publicly traded technology company, Interaccurate, Inc. under our parent company Commerce Planet
    [17:27] Salesman Guy: we're an online media company
    [17:27] Salesman Guy: i have a simulated live chat technology. it's an exit pop that works to recover and convert orders on a CPA basis
    [17:28] Salesman Guy: www.myonlinechat.com
    [17:28] Salesman Guy: I'm looking to do business together
    [17:29] Sherm: but you don't know what sites I run, so how do you know? How'd you find my contact info?
    [17:30] Salesman Guy: sorry... don't mean to startle you.
    [17:31] Salesman Guy: I got you from gfy.com
    [17:31] Sherm: didn't startle me.. I just don't understand how a person wants to do business with me without researching
    [17:32] Salesman Guy: I know.. it's strange... but my technology is awesome.. and there is no risk associated with it..
    [17:32] Salesman Guy: Here a link to one of my clients: https://www.financebox.com/mortgage/
    [17:33] Salesman Guy: when the page loads... exit the window
    [17:33] Salesman Guy: and you get a chat bot... that's us...
    [17:33] Sherm: I'm sorry. I'm sure it is, but first impressions are key. I'm not currently seeking any live chat solutions, nor am I popping consonles
    [17:33] Sherm: consoles
    [17:34] Sherm: best of luck with your product. in the future, try researching leads a bit better so that you know how to target your webmaster in question.
    [17:35] Sherm: Cheers.
    [17:35] Salesman Guy: sure... You should really check it out. It's going to change the industry
    [17:35] Salesman Guy: regards

        Pop up chat consoles are going to change the industry?

                    here's how it would work:

                    CHATBOT: Wait! Don't close that window!
                    SURFER: Huh?
                    CHATBOT: Don't put your dick back in your pants just yet! Let me tell you about all the great pussy pictures we offer!
                    SURFER: Go away

                        I have a personal ban on "Regards". It's much too indian for my taste. "Best regards" is even worse. They should make spam filters watch for it.

                        I tend to answer with "relatively better regards" or "slightly worse regards"

                                            I'm still really mad at Sherm for getting me hooked on silly t-shirts... it's like an addiction. But I hope I was nicer when I hit him up asking him to put my feeds in his members areas.

                                              The cam industry has been doing this for a while.

                                              I added it to a site, it converted about 1:800 on exit consoles .. which I considered amazing. Paid out $5,000-$8,000 per month, usually, which was a nice little bonus for adding a small pop.
