Re: [Legacymarketing] Re: The Goodwill Partnership

Good morning to you all
 
When this group was first established it was certainly made clear to me as a consultant that I would not use this group as a 'means of selling'
 
Richard is quite right we can all share our experience and expertise and those of us who have, sorry Richard, been around for longer than many others are happy so to do without turning it into an obvious sales pitch.
 
Good bye for now
Lesley

Once again I do not believe that an email group, sharing expertise and asking questions which challenge and inform us all, should be used as a sales tool. Such an unsubtle approach destroys genuine comradeship and mutual understanding.
In my viedw you should market elsewhere - there are plenty of opps all over the place. This email group is ace as a group of colleagues who need each other. We do not need a sell. goodbye, richard
