Some very good tips Maxine, I tend not to leave voicemails as you’ve said and they rarely get a return call! I think if you do though it’s best to leave them curious and leave them a benefit of calling you.

Glad you found it useful Ruth. It’s a good point that you raise about people leaving threads because of harsh comments. People seem to forget they are on the world wide web sometimes and just think they are talking amongst the small community where they can say what they like without any regard for the impression it gives of them and their business!

UKBF has had it’s fair share of “keyboard warriors” over the years and it always makes me cringe as people can be so unsympathetic sometimes to new posters and forget they were a newbie themselves once upon a time.

Hope to see you on UKBF soon

Maxine, thank you for a comprehensive collection of tips with regard to posting on forums. I particularly like your positive approach, and the gentle way you warn against overt self-promotion.
I often leave a forum thread that gets high-jacked by spam or obvious sales speak, and equally those that get hit by unnecessarily harsh comments that cut the person posting to shreds. Either approach is so unnecessary, and even a touch infantile in nature.

Comment on How to completely destroy your customer base with marketing! by Hudson Accountants

I agree that proper systems and training should be in place to prevent “accidents” like this happening.

Not many people seem to understand email etiquette. We all complain about spam and worry about viruses but, most weeks, my personal email address is included on a fairly public list instead of using the BCC function.

Perhaps we should all look to what we do ourselves first.

Comment on Telemarketing with numbers blocked or with held by Ashley Price

It’s a good point about TPS, but they are pretty much a toothless tiger. No company has ever been fined for calling TPS-registered numbers. The TPS expect the “victim” to do all the work, (getting names, company names, telephone numbers, noting time of day of the calls, etc.)

In fact I have heard that some companies actually target TPS-registered numbers precisely because they get fewer calls and they know they won’t be fined.
