When you’re trying to sell something, you can’t come across as someone who hates their customers. That’s the wrong way to do it. But when you don’t think about the way your customers feel, and when you cross the line and ignore their boundaries, you’re taking away their power. You’re taking away their respect. How do you think they’re going to respond?
Stop treating me like a piece of shit.

This is fucking amazing, Jon. I think it’s sad when companies automate their SM like this. I especially dislike getting a private message that’s inauthentic (and 99% of them are) — it comes across as slimy and inauthentic, especially if they ask for a “follow4follow”.
When did we stop being inauthentic? If marketing doesn’t become authentic, customers lost interest. And whoever doesn’t realize that and stop looking at people as $ and start treating them with the respect they deserve, won’t attract the right clients and will be lost in the game forever.
Their loss, though.
