Default Michael...that post was absolute BS!

It was that good it was like Brain Sex to me!

The whole thread and the quality of responses is the best I have read in ages.

But are our value systems being affected by the cesspit (in sales terms) the Internet has become?

There is a backlash to the bombardment of sales pitches we all receive in the Information Age .

Sellers with the 'herd mentality' respond with hype, manipulation and BS (in the true sense of the term this time :o)

Because times are tough yaknow...so send out more hype etc. Absolute nonsense.

I call this the 'Old Reality' of selling

So things go round in circles. Yes people have their value systems bass ackward...but facing the almost impossibile task of finding quality, trusted information FORCES them into repeat behaviour. So we all go round...prospective buyers and sellers...in a self defeating spiral of ineffectiveness.

But the New reality of selling means creating trust upfront and AUTOMATICALLY...because times have changed too much and so fast to do things any other way.

Old reality selling is based on old rules. Which USED to mean a good sales person could outhink and manipulate prospective buyers.

But now thanks to the speed of the Information Age the buyers have seen it all and are switching off in DROVES! Avoid, avoid, avoid.

There are new rules in a new age...there has to be.

Great brain sex ;o)


What on Earth am I on about?
