Skeptical
I visit my once-a-while-normally-for-spams email today.
And she is sent another email again (fortunately, through that email, heh!). There is this secondary school friend of mine who recently turned internet marketer. She has been at it for sometime, and in her latest email, she told us that she is doing an email blast and many in Singapore will see her in video, and because we are her dear friends she want to share it with us first (very sales-talk).
So out of curiosity, I clicked on the link she gave.
After watching the video, I was more confused then before. The video spoke nothing about what she does (2 children, obviously pre-empted by her, shouting in "joy" before they go into the pool, and the scene changes to show her sitting by the pool), and was all about spending 2 hours each time a day at the computer.
That's what these internet marketing companies does, dangling a carrot in front of you and luring you into their business. I am skeptical, because... It's simply not convincing enough for me.
For the whole time, she repeated the question "do you want to" but not clearing the air what will happen. It may be confidentiality that she has sworn, but... It's really as superficial as the way she staged the video.
So yeah, unless I see something convincing enough, I am not in a hurry to fill up that form to find out more.
