There are certain things that we may not appreciate but that doesn’t mean they are not necessary. For example, we might not like getting a call that interrupts our dinner or perhaps we don’t appreciate junk mail, but both of them help to fuel the economy and we do need that to run properly.
In fact, marketing is a very important part of the world around us but we don’t often give it the credit it deserves. You might even be surprised to learn that you can do things a lot better when you apply some of the principles of marketing, and that is what this article helps us to see.
Of course, we realize that this is just a joke, but there is actually a lot of truth to it as well. Look down through it and see if you can apply any of it in your life, if you can do so through the laughter.
#1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You went up to her and say “I am very rich. Marry me”.
That’s Direct Marketing.
#2. You are at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says, “He is very rich. Marry him”.
That’s Advertising.
#3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day you called her and say, “Hi, I am very rich. Marry me”.
That’s Telemarketing.
#4. You are at a party and see a beautiful girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink. You open the door for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her a ride, and then say, ‘By the way, I’m very rich. Will you marry me?’.
That’s Public Relations.
#5. You are at a party and see a gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says, “You are very rich”.
That’s Brand Recognition.
#6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say, “I am very rich. Marry me”.
She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.
That’s Customer Feedback.
#7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” And she introduces you to her husband.
That’s Demand and Supply Gap.
#8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person comes and tell her: “I’m rich. Will you marry me?” And she goes with him.
That’s Competition Eating into Your Market Share.
#9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say: “I’m rich, Marry me!” Your wife arrives.
That’s Restriction for Entering New Markets.
