I just FIRED an employee - GoFuckYourself.com

DatingGold · 07-09-2004, 03:50 PM

One of my marketing people is a single mother with three kids. We pay her like $10 an hour to find sites that we think we should partner with and she emails them to see if they want to check out our affiliate program.

Well thanks to GFY users PeerPatrick, JSA Matt, Grumpy, justsexxx, SpeakEasy, jimmyf for complaining and saying it was spam, we had to fire her.

She'll probably be evicted and homeless by the end of the month.

Just spreading the good news!

Pipecrew · 07-09-2004, 03:51 PM

I dont know if i'am in shock that you fired her, or that your company can even afford marketting people.

Fletch XXX · 07-09-2004, 03:52 PM

this guy is sooo full of shit.

he was called out for spamming , claims he PAYS SOMEONE TO MAIL folks, now he fired her?

it was a HIM in the other thread

HAHAHA

Your a bad employer if you give your employees false hope and let them do illegal work. Bad Bad boy.

xxxdesign-net · 07-09-2004, 03:55 PM

partner with.. meaning asking webamsters to promote your site? If thats not spam.. what is the definition of spam?

Tom_PMs · 07-09-2004, 03:58 PM

Emailing someone once and saying "Hey you want to trade links?" isn't "SPAM" by any definition.

Are you sure we have the whole story here? Sounds pretty damn silly.

Do people actually report as "SPAM" a single email like that? I cant believe that they do, it's too ridiculous.

Tofu · 07-09-2004, 03:58 PM

You mean you would report something like that if you got ONE email? Wow..

If I got repeated bulk emails like that, I would report it. But one? No way..

JSA Matt · 07-09-2004, 03:59 PM

Didn't you just say it was a phillipino male making $2 an hour?After you spammed me several times, I sent a message to [email protected] and you call me a liar. You are an idiot and I feel sorry for anyone doing business with you.

Why would you ever post this newS? Its not good and your response at the end about her being homeless is heartless...Makes me wanna do biz with a company which is run by such a understanding and compationate guy.

I agree when I worked for a mainstream dot com, if I couldnt find a phone number I would email mail . Sending a email introducing yourself asking if you want to do business is not spam. Also are you that weak you fired her based on instructions you gave her?

Seriously, you should've been more original, like that mom has house payments coming soon.

TheJimmy · 07-09-2004, 05:20 PM

I thought spam was legal...

was she forging headers or reply to addresses?

was there a valid remove link, etc?

last I heard everyone CAN-SPAM

What he was doing is not spam.

No comment on whether DG did or did not do it as he says but;

I can see what he's talking about. In the early days I went around the search engines using words like "Teen Porn" when I found a site I would look to see if there was an email address or go to Whois and find it.

Then I sent them off an email introducing myself to them. Got a lot of replies that were pure abuse, mostly from idiots with small crappy sites, and accused of spamming.

Marketing is not spamming, it's doing business. Paysites are in the business of delivering content, they need to buy good content, they need to be aware of the content available, especially new content providers. To dismiss an email introducing yourself as a content provider to a paysite as spam shows a lack of business sense and disregard for your business.

The right girl on your tour can improve your conversion ratios better than anything, to stick yourself in a rut and ignore a new content provider meansd your competitor might be a little more open minded and get the business.

NOT SPAM.

And it should be the same for any part of the business, hosting, design, affiliates, sponsors. I'm sory but keeping up with what is around you and available for you and your competitors is part of being in business.

Spam is a guy trying to sell me insurance or a mortgage. not even knowing or caring that he's emailing me andf I'm not in the US. Spam is high volume emailing, not targetted marketing.
