6 Hilarious Explanations of Marketing Concepts

Saw this gem on Facebook and I thought it's relevant for all of us. :p Some of you may have heard this one already, though.

(I altered the wording just a bit to make it more readable, but everything else remains untouched.)


6 Hilarious Explanations of Marketing Concepts:


1.) You see a gorgeous girl in a party. You sidle up to her and say, "I'm rich. Marry me!"

This is otherwise known as Direct Marketing. (AKA Your sales page)


2.) Your friend comes up to the both of you and says to the girl, "Yeah, he really is rich. Marry him!"

In other words, he's doing some Advertising. (Affiliate sites, SEO, Article Marketing yadayada)


3.) Another girl overhears your conversation and rushes to your side. "Can I... can I marry you?" She asks.

That's Brand Recognition. (Authority sites, popular products)


4.) You do your best to ignore the newcomer. Turning back to the first girl, you repeat your pitch: "I'm REALLY rich. Marry me?"

She slaps you. That's a form of Customer Feedback. (Actively building relationships)


5.) Undaunted (or maybe you just had a little too much to drink), you pester her once more. Exasperated, she calls out to a heavyset man, and introduces him as her husband as he glares menacingly at you.

In other words, you're looking at a Saturated Market. (Tough niche!)


6.) You turn back to the second girl waiting patiently at your side. Just before you start your pitch again, however, your wife strides up to you and pulls you away by the ear.

Too bad, it probably means you're Restricted from Entering a New Market.



Hope you had a good laugh out of it. I certainly did.

    If that happens, it is because you have not trained your wife correctly.

    This is what they refer to as, Over-Reaching Governmental Control.

      I want to know your training techniques if you can get her to tolerate that.
