Comment on This is What Verizon’s Largest Marketing Campaign Buys by Spencer Ante

And this is the kind of thing that it isn’t targeted to geeks. Most of the people on line were not 20 something geeks. They were older folks, and a bunch of women.

Admittedly, it’s a small thing. But it does show you that the company is experimenting with a lot of different marketing tricks.

Verizon is clearly pulling out all the stops?? 75 people playing with a machine?? Ahh…are you serious. Verizon is targeting geeks with their ads…waste of money Verizon…they’re already sold. Might want to open up your campaign to a wider net if you want to take on Apple.

I’M A DISSATISFIED SPRINT CUSTOMER AND I’M REALLY READY TO GO WITH A BETTER CELL PHONE COMPANY!! SPRINTS CUSTOMER SERVICE IS TERRIBLE THEY WILL TELL YOU ANYTHING WHILE YOU ARE ON THE PHONE BUT WHEN YOU GET OFF THE PHONE AND CALL IN TO VERIFY WHAT WAS SAID NO ONE HAS ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THE PREVIOUS CONVERSATION!!! I HAVE A ISSUE WITH SPRINT CURRENTLY AND NO ONE WILL EVEN TRY TO LOOK INTO IT DEEPER SO IN RESULT I’M SEEKING A MORE TRUTHFUL COMPANY TO GO WITH!! I HAVE BEEN WITH SPRINT SINCE 2007 AND ITS SAD THAT THINGS HAVE TO END SO HORRIBLE!!! EVERY TIME I CALL IN I GET TRANSFERED TO AT LEAST 7 TO 8 DIFFERENT PEOPLE BEFORE THEY GIVE ME SOME NONE HELPFUL INFORMATION OR THEY JUST HANG UP AFTER KEEPING ME ON HOLD FOR 30 MINS OR BETTER! SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE

Whether we find it astonishing or whether we find it quite plausible that a small but highly organized group of atoms be capable of acting in this manner, the situation is unprecedented, it is unknown anywhere else except in living matter. ,

They were loud, rude, ill mannered, lazy and stupid. ,

Comment on Why AIG Should Not Pay Out Any Bonuses by Spencer Ante

Thanks for the comment. Seems like Sorkin’s book is getting some big pickup. I read on HuffPo that he nailed former Treasury Sec. Paulson holding a secret meeting with Goldman Sachs’s in Moscow!!!

Shoot me the link to your piece.

I saw Andrew Sorkin on Charlie Rose last night. I think he is weening himself off being a Wall St apologist as he too has come to realize the bankers’ folly (presumptuousness) in fighting attempts to regulate the industry so the crisis of 2008 doesn’t happen again. In case you are interested, I have just posted a piece based on his discussion.
