Last week I got to rapping with Doberman Dan about how people demand replies to emails right way.
And, how they'll freak out if you don't comply.
As Dan (so eloquently) put it:
"I #!@*! HATE the Internet. People who USED to be normal rational people now EXPECT an answer to emails within hours... and if they don't get it they freak out. And that has everybody responding like Pavlov's dog in front of their email instead of living life. I just want to go retire to a farm in some other country and sit on my porch with a shotgun."
He's absolutely right, too.
The Internet HAS changed people.
And, in many cases, not for the better.
It's like people have become "zombified" online.
Loathe as I am to admit it, I'm the same way -- I work at my computer all day, and am constantly checking emails (the distraction actually helps my creativity, believe it or not) so am probably as zombified as anyone.
It's also why I see it as a GOOD thing.
Well, for ye who aggressively use email, at least.
Why?
Because, Van Helsing, if there's an Internet zombie apocalypse afoot (people sitting in front of their computers all day and night checking email), you can profit from it by being in front of them each day.
Hey, it's all in the way you look at it.
I may be an Internet zombie.
But, I'm at least a glass half full kinda zombie.
Anyway, if you want to profit from this Internet zombie apocalypse, then learn the mysteries of email marketing.
My "Email Players" newsletter shows you how.
Quickly.
Simply.
And, in a way that's fun.
(Imagine that?)
