\*\*[color=blue]The buzzword in today’s business world is MARKETING. However, people  
often ask for a simple explanation of “Marketing.” Well, here it is:

You’re a woman and you see a handsome guy at a party. You go 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 and pointing at you 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  
telephone number. The next day you call and say, “Hi, I’m fantastic in  
bed.” That’s Telemarketing.

You see a guy at a party, you straighten your dress. You walk up to him  
and pour him a drink. You say, “May I?” and reach u! p 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. He fancies you, but 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 towards the center and shout at the top of your  
lungs, “I’m fantastic in bed!” That’s Junk Mail.

You are at a party, this well-built man walks up to you and gropes your  
breast and grabs your \*\*\*. That’s the Governor of California!

You like it, but 20 years later your attorney decides you were offended.  
That’s America \*\*[/color]

I was too lazy to change it to a guys perspective lol - deal with it 😉

I hope your eyes sting after reading all that blue :lol:
