Reverse Psychology .. is it unethical?

4 replies
How have you used it in IM?

For example, if I said "Don't click on my sig links or God will kill a Kitten" .. would you?

But getting serious, have you used this in squeeze pages and what kinda success have you had?

    I haven't, but I reckon that there are (certainly must be) sets of words that work and sets of words to avoid (eg. stop words and buy words).

    One thing though, on a contractor website one of the contractors used it form of it for her tender, something like, "If you hire me, you won't get good work, you'll get the best", and to me, that just came across as, "If you don't hire me, you won't get good work, blah blah blah". She obviously wasn't hired...

    Saying that, your signature works pretty well.

    Why would you ask anyone here for anything given your low opinion of almost everyone in this forum?
    99% of the approaches on this forum are (Can I say Bull****?) . I would summarize it as outdated, reselling dreams and gaming Google.
