Newcastle Bar Promoters Spamming Facebook!
Posted by NewcastleVIP on November 10, 2009If you are a promoter of a bar, event or basically anything on the internet please take note. PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE SPAM!!!
I am a member of lots of groups, forums, websites, Facebook groups and pages on the internet. The correct and best way to utilize this marketing is not to spam people, not to piss them off…You should want them to keep reading the things they have decided to opt into. It seems like some people forget that these services are an opt-in, which means we can leave and then they will have 1 less person on their mailing list.
I get LOADS of messages from Madame Koo from a person in charge of their Facebook page/group…The problem is, i get multiple messages, all the time!! This is very annoying, and instead of getting people to go to the place like its supposed to, it just annoys people. Dont they realise sending 3 emails/messages which are EXACTLY the same in the space of 10 minutes will make people unsubscribe/leave their group. I have noticed people leaving all the time, more than half the people who were in the Facebook group have left, probably because, like me, they are sick.
It is a great tool if it is used correctly. If it is not, it is counter productive, i dont think they even realise how much damage it could do. They might aswell stand outside and shout at every passing person COME IN OUR PACE!! COME ON!! I have not left yet, but they are doing a good job to drive me away.
Check out this screenshot below…These are messages sent to me all within the space of 11 minutes; The Same Message!
