What is Marketing?
If you’ve ever wondered what marketing is all about, especially where dating is concerned, Iamwhoiam posted this on his blog.
You see a handsome guy at a party.
You go up to him and say, “I’m fantastic in bed.”
– That’s Direct Marketing.
You’re at a party with a bunch of friends and see a handsome guy.
One of your friends goes up to him and pointing at you says,
“She’s fantastic in bed.”
– That’s Advertising.
You see a handsome guy at a party.
You go up to him and get his telephone number.
The next day you call and say, “Hi, I’m fantastic in bed.”
– That’s Telemarketing.
You’re at a party and see a handsome guy.
You get up and straighten your dress.
You walk up to him and pour him a drink.
You say, “May I,” and reach up to straighten his tie
brushing yourself slightly against his arm, and then say,
“By the way, I’m fantastic in bed.”
– That’s Public Relations.
You’re at a party and see a handsome guy.
He walks up to you and says,
“I hear you’re fantastic in bed.”
– That’s Brand Recognition.
You’re at a party and see a handsome guy.
You talk him into going home with your friend.
– That’s a Sales Rep.
Your friend can’t satisfy him so he calls you.
– That’s Tech Support.
You’re on your way to a party when you realize that there
could be handsome men in all these houses you’re passing.
So you climb onto the roof of one situated toward the center
and shout at the top of your lungs, “I’m fantastic in bed!”
– That’s Spam.
This is hilarious. It brought a smile to my face on a otherwise dull Saturday night.
Maybe the tech support will say make sure you are plugged in.
That is way too funny! Thank you for the monday morning chuckle!
So that’s Marketing… now I understand perfectly
LOL!
I used to have to make presentations stating the difference between marketing and advertising. Have to admit these do put it in easy to understand terms (albeit ones that could get you thrown out of a meeting).
LOL!!! Appreciate the laugh, was in a need of one.
Sandy
welcome mats out, hope you’ll swing by for a visit
(hum, not I’m confused is that advertising or marketing?)
That is too funny!! LOL
ROTFL! This is so good, I’m going to post it on one of my blogs, with credit given to you of course
loved it. 8-D
Tina T – I guess you have to ‘change sex’ depending on what the gender makeup of your meeting is. They’d have to be a boring lot to throw you out and you would certainly make the point!
Good post. Thank you.
By the way, while reading about shouting from the roof, I visualized the blogging. My pictures are receiving the same demand, yet I didnt stop to trust in the miracle to meet the benefactor one day and to receive the order one day.
Good one!

LOL…fantastic!! It’s refreshing to find something out of the ordinary. Keep up the good work.
i tried it and got slapped by the FTC for misrepresenting myself…
What a great analogy and a good laugh! Thanks

Honey…you made my day.
Hey there!
That was great fun.
I really think i should take marketing management lessons from you. lol.
Very funny! Although I would suggest that Spam is sending naked photos of yourself with some gibbering text below it making no sense. Other than that, spot on!
hahaha, that was great! Question is, which marketing tactic is most successful?
That is pretty funny!
This is really funny! I have a business and I really value Marketing. With this post, you helped me understand Marketing deeper : )
