Yes, I'm an ad geek. Here's an email forward I got from my friend Joseph:
The buzzword in today's business world is "Marketing." It is a very complex industry, but here are simple examples and explanations of common marketing terms.
You're a woman and you see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and say, "I'm fantastic in bed."
This is Direct Marketing.
You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a handsome guy. One of your friends goes up to him and pointing at you says, "She's fantastic in bed."
This is Advertising.
You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and get his telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed."
This is Telemarketing.You see a guy at a party, you straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. You say, "May I?" and reach up to straighten his tie, brushing your breast lightly against his arm, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed."
This is Public Relations.
You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He walks up to you and says, "I hear you're fantastic in bed."
This is Brand Recognition.
You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He fancies you, but you talk him into going home with your friend.
This is Sales.Your friend can't satisfy him so he calls you.
This is Marketing Support.You're on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses you're passing. So you climb onto the roof of one situated towards the center and shout at the top of your lungs, "I'm fantastic in bed!"
This is Spam.
