How To Know You Have Made The Big Time - Official Recognition From...

[Ken Leatherman]

Hey Girls and Boys,

Yep, it's true! I'm an official big time marketer. Now notice I didn't say "Guru", but big time marketer. I have received Official notification of this from none other than PayPal.

I have been given an official discount off their 7.5% fee and now as of today officially been given my own personal VIP customer service phone number. And I quote:

Hello Ken Leatherman,
Since you use PayPal as much as you do, we think you deserve VIP treatment. That's why we've created a special support line just for you.
Now you can enjoy faster service with direct access to a dedicated team of PayPal support experts - ready to answer all your account questions.

I believe I should be magnanimous and share all my glory with all you little folks (glory not money) I could not have reached such an exalted marketing status without you. (don't you believe it I did it all on my own )

I want you to know this will not change me in one iota. I will continue to give unsolicited useless advise whether it is asked for or not. Furthermore I will continue to give credit where credit is not due:

Big Mike (don't you believe it, all he did was try to get me drunk)
Kevin Riley's Hamsters (a little hairy, but still nutritional, the hamsters not Rileyl)
Bev Clement (for not detecting me as making useless post)
Chris Sutton (for not helping with the technical stuff)
Hillbilly Marketer (for not singing duets with the Wag)
Allen Says and the Mods (for recognizing my true Genius postings, when they see it)
John Taylor (for not giving me good words of advice)
And then all you other little people that I didn't have time to listen to.

I forgot Elmer Hurlstone and his band of renown.

I write this to encourage all the little people that haven't made it to the top. You can succeed, just be like me.

Hi, it's great when someone finally does well. Hopefully someday I can make the same claim. I know this forum is helping me learn lots and get there bit my bit. Thanks for the encouragement.

[DeePower]

Well I'm totally miffed I mean totally. I've done absolutely nothing for you over and over again and you don't thank me at all. FYI I'm way past being a little people I reached five foot eight inches when I was in 6th grade. You can take your paypal and put it in your pipe. If there was a no thanks button I'd push it.

*leaves with a flounce*

Ken,

Dammit! I thought that notice was only for me! I feel cheated Paypal really has cut me deep this time.

[Ken Leatherman]

See how good I am at marketing now I'm getting "flounced" by a hot chick in Arizona (pun intended)

[Writing Pete]

Congrats, you Old Geezer. I wish I would get one of these notices...

[IMChick]

Well, that's terrific, Ken!

Did you have a chance in your busy schedule to call the VIP number at paypal and order room service yet?

Like the way there's nothing in it for me, very 2009 IM, especially since I make sure to follow all your posts and have hit the 'thanks' button for no reason other than to see your numbers go up!

Ok, now I have to go throught the day's mail and see if there's an invitation to 'who's who' directory in it. Sorry I didn't save my last one, but hopefully them will spam me again and I can recommend you for membership!

[Christopher R Everson]

You got it too huh?

Take it you just hit 800 sales?

Or 400 sales?

Or my other account with 125 sales?

Paypal is just giving this out to anyone that actively uses the account.

Congrats though, means you are at least doing something!

[Martin Luxton]

Damn! I thought it was spam and deleted it.

I'll have to open another Paypal account.

Hey IMChick,

I just knew someone was stalking me with the thanks button, I have reported you to the internet posting poolice for building my thanks number, but you do know of course I deserved everyone of those thanks. The pearls of wisdom that I so graciously spread far and wide lead the little folks to not making any money. and by the way the room service was outstanding, all though the lady I talked to sounded a little peeved when I ordered the steaks medium rare.

Christopher, you, me and Michael Brown are so completely exclusive members that only we have that number. However, I'm somewhat downcast now because I just knew no one else had that special VIP treatment. Sheesh you guys rained on my parade.

Martin don't worry man just copy everything I don't do and you will surely be annexed into the stratosphere of being a PayPal VIP.

Ken

LOL this post cracked me up

I've been a Paypal member since they were "X.com" and what kind of recognition do I get? Nothing! NOTHING! Loyalty...humph!

*goes out sulking with Dee*

[Thaddaeus T. Hogg]

Whooooo weeeeee! Lookie thar now... Bad Thad has done been mentioned by the "King of Shower Door Pitchers" Mr. Ken Leatherman hisself! Yew done knowed yew done hit the biggest time when yew is mentioned by Mr. Pervy live and in livin color rat here in the Warrior Forum.

Sad part is, Mr. Kevin Riley done went and gots a higher billin than old Thad! Now whut's up with that thar? It's not that I gots anythin against Mr. Crotch-Stuffin Mankini but I jest don't feel like thut thar feller deserves such a high billin!

Cousin' Ken, I shore dew wants to congratulate yew on bein named Mr. Paypal cause I done knowed Miz Penelope is shore gonna love seein yew as Mr. February in the newest Paypal VIP nekkid calendar!

By the by, I wus jest kiddin bout ole Ken bein a pervert. Iffin he really wus, they wud arrest him fer assault with a dead weapon!

Ya'll come back now, hear?

[Rod Cortez]

Y'know what comes next don't you Ken? A new saying.....

"If an old Geezer like Ken can do this anyone can...."

RoD

[Chris W. Sutton]

I've got to tell you that if an old geezer like Ken can do this, anyone can! You KNOW you have reached the pinnacle of success when you get Rod Cortez making a post in your thread!

[Ken Leatherman]

Man all these folks dropping in and paying homage to my great marketing skills is really quite exciting and not a bit humbling.

As I can see so many of you are so jealous of my success. Don't worry I'm not about to share any of my secrets, because if I did you would try to run over me and knock me off my VIP status with PayPal.

You better believe if this Old Geezer can do it, nobody can err anybody can. (Freudian slip) (on purpose). Now keep throwing kudo's it's time for my beauty sleep.
