Several women I know have asked me for an explanation of Marketing. Perhaps the following analogies will help clear it up...

You see a handsome guy at a party. You walk 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, points at you and 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 phone number. The next day you call and say "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed."
- That's Telemarketing

You see a handsome guy at a party. You get up to straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. "May I?" you ask and reach over to straighten his tie brushing your breast lightly 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 in the center and shout and the top of your lungs "I'm fantastic in bed."
- That's Spam

Good post,only problem you make spam seem like a good thing by having a chick talk about needing to get laid!
