More fun than a Magic 8 Ball

magic8ballIt’s been a bit since we got a Question submission.  We try really hard to reply to each and every one of the “What’s Your Question?” emails we receive.  Even when they are a lil crazy (who am I kidding, Lindaloohoo LOVES the crazy ones).

Just to show you what I mean, here is a question we received yesterday from one of our readers:

hi first iam greeting u so please help me iam so glad to meet u so plese can u help me??? and my question is can u tell me my best friend in the world? - Monada

Lindaloohoo surely does not disappoint.  She’s even better than having a magic eight ball if you ask me.  Check out her reply:

monada,

you realize we’re not the psychic network right?

but if i had to guess, i’d say your best friend is someone really fast, like dash from the incredibles, so they can keep up with your fast pace.  am i close? - linda

So … just in case you wonder if you actually get a response when you click that little tab up there :: points :: called “What’s Your Question?” Rest assured … you do … and most of the time, it’s even more fun than the Magic Eight Ball.

5 Reasons I am not a fan of your business on FACEBOOK

5reasonsnofanThis one is compliments on Letter Girl AKA notgoingpostal.com and I must say when I saw this I  could not believe her timing as Kristy and I were just talking about this.  Seriously I think Letter Girl is in both of our heads!!

Girl … it’s dangerous in here … you might want to rethink that choice ;-)!! HEHE

Seriously … if you are not reading Not Going Postal … you are TRULY missing out.  Please make sure and check out her site… she always seems to have incredible things posted!!

So here is her “BRILLIANT” post titled - 5 REASONS I AM NOT A FAN OF YOUR BUSINESS ON FACEBOOK!

1. I’m not a customer.

Don’t get your feelings hurt. Maybe it’s because I just don’t need your services. Maybe you’re a very nice independent insurance agent and my husband already works for the best insurance company in the world. (Not a paid endorsement.) Maybe you sell fertility vitamins and I would gouge out my eyes with a rusty nail before I would try to get pregnant. Maybe you’re hawking high-calorie shakes geared towards helping people bulk up and, seriously? DO I EVEN NEED TO EXPLAIN WHY I’M NOT SIGNING UP?

Of course, it could also be that I’m not a customer because I had a bad experience, like another company better, or think you’re in an industry responsible for eroding the America I know and love.

Either way, I’m not going to fan your page. Because first, I don’t volunteer to get marketing messages from a company I don’t use. And second, becoming your “fan” is a subtle endorsement. And I don’t endorse things I don’t use just to be polite.

2. You’re a tool.

Even if I do like your business, if when I look at your page, you are posting nothing but specials and advertisements, and not really interacting with customers, I’m not becoming a fan. Social media is soft-sell and relationship-based. I don’t want to be looking through my Facebook news feed and see advertisement after advertisement for buy one, get one free widget sales.

3. You’re A No-Show

On the other hand, if I go look at your “fan page” and you haven’t posted anything or responded to any questions from customers, I’m not becoming a fan, either. Don’t get a Facebook page just because someone said you should and then ignore it.

Worst example I’ve ever seen of this? Chrysler. They’ve gone in and cleaned up their fan page, but for a while, it was nothing but angry customers wanting answers about problems with their cars and getting no response. You really don’t want to put up a page where all that’s happening is people talking about how bad you suck. (Which, Chrysler? You pretty much do. But that’s a story for another post).

So here is our DAMN question: DO YOU AGREE????
