Marketing Without the Marketing
Business:Marketing
The Internet Is One Big Rickroll (Episode 143)
There is no article you can read, video you can view, or social feed you can scroll through without being interrupted.
The never-ending series of desperate attempts to steal our attention from what we actually want to see results in surprise after unwelcome surprise pop-up and modals and “welcome mats” that leave us searching for the opt-out.
It’s one thing to earn our attention by producing great content. It’s quite another to steal attention by being the thing that interrupts us from that great content.
Every time I experience this, I feel like I’ve been Rickrolled.
Show NotesIf you liked this rant, here’s another about The One Word That Diminishes Your Work. This podcast is not always rants, but bad marketing drives me crazy and sometimes I can’t help myself. If you’re interested, I invite you to subscribe so I can let you know when new episodes publish.
My email list is a feed quick reminders, no spam, no selling your address, no Rickrolling. You select your preferences for what you receive and how often (which is the way it should be it’s your inbox, not mine). I make it easy to unsubscribe in every message.
If you are new to the show, here’s a little bit about me. I am a practitioner who shares what I learn in the field in my podcast and blog. I do this for free to “pay it forward.” If you are able, fuel my efforts with a cup of coffee!
