We know our subject line says “talk dirty,” but we draw the line at sleazy.
Per a Copyblogger podcast we featured a few days ago, we touched on some people’s apprehension to marketing, for fear of being “unethical.” If you do it right, that just won’t be the case. Take Mark, for example. He puts the “mark” in “marketing,” and he’s the nicest one in the office.
Anyway, seems like more and more strategies out there are making a point to avoid the sleaze factor. It’s an old advertising stigma marketers want to squash. So let’s get to it then. Today’s Listen is chock full of awesome tools and ways to win more business, but without being gross about it.
