Tay-rolling the opportunity buyers

Published: Fri, 10/07/16

Last year, someone saw a testimonial I gave for “Email Players” subscriber Igor Kheifets. He wanted to know if one of his product was worth the money being charged.

My response:

“My testimonial is about what I think of him,
he's a good student.
But I've never seen his product so couldn't say.”

His reply:

“Okay. Are you making money with email marketing?
Because i'm looking for a product/funnel
to promote which gives me residual income”

Sigh.

Opportunity buyers...

Five minutes on Google would tell him everything he wants to know.

My response?

Well, I was tempted to Rick Roll him. (i.e. send people to a link they think is content or something interseting, but is a YouTube video of Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” video from the 80’s.) I really dig Rick Rolling people. But, it’s too nice, the song/video not annoying enough. Nor does it accurately describe the people asking such questions. So, I’ve decided to create my own meme.

I call it:

“Taylor Roll”

(Even better, as reader Mary Rose Maguire calls it "Tay-roll")

And, instead of it being Rick Astley’s song, it’s Taylor Dane’s “Tell It To My Heart” — which I find a lot more fitting to opportunity buyers craving the next product needing to be told what they want to hear. Anyway, henceforth I’ll be responding to questions like that with a link to that video.

Everyone else?

The grown-ups?

Why, you deserve a link to “Email Players”:

Yes, I know, I am kind…
