Talk about bad marketing! Usually, I simply ignores crappy spam mail. Occasionally, I like to draw a lesson from them, so I’ve decided to improve the following spam mail and send it to the spammer so that old Mak Saini… a Hotmail user, will improve his emails so that no one will read his better crap. Calling this email Spam is an insult to Spam. The truth is, as a Jersey Guy who grew up on Taylor Pork Roll sandwiches, Spam sandwiches are the next best thing.

Hi, (How Hi? Hi? That’s all you got? Loser!)
First of all, I would like to utilize the opportunity to introduce myself to you as WDM, India Web Development Company. As an Internet Application Development company, we have been progressively growing over our year of operations. (First of all, you shouldn’t start a conversation about yourself. You have to make me give a crap about who you are, and right now, the only reason I give a crab about you is to use you as an illustration of how not to sell. To use you as a punching bag.)
Our designers and developers have been delivering their best by pushing their creative horizons. (Wow! How did you know that I needed to push some gosh darn creative horizons? That’s some really original, creative, jingoistic jargon bs.)
We like to move along with constantly transforming technology and hence (hence? really? hence?) adopt the most advanced tools and practices. (why should I give a sh&t? How does the jargon term advanced tools and practices translate to a benefit to me? Does it allow you to deliver the service quickly at less cost to attract more of the customers I’m losing?) We listen and understand the personalized needs of our clients to deliver precisely with what’s needed. (If you actually listened to deliver personalized needs… don’t you think you could have done a better job of proving that than sending this piece of crap spam email? Based on your execution so far, I think you’re lying. I don’t think you listen, and I think you want to cheat me.)
Our prices are best in the market, which is why we have a client base in countries like USA, Europe, Canada, and Australia. (So What?)
We can help your business/organization to earn the identity it needs on the internet as it is the best platform for marketing today. Our services web development in Web Designing includes: (Really? By this letter, it would seem like you think my “business/organization’s” identity is ________? I don’t need a website to tell people that I’m nobody, with no name or any business name.)
