Craigslist is proving to be a worthless adventure. Apparently no one receiving our ads needs our service, but everyone seems to want us to use theirs. Who's giving the advice here?!?!?!? Us, or someone else? This site isn't made in china where cheap child labor results in high profit. We don't need someone else to do our leg work for us. But in the spirit of our original intentions, here is the message received:
Hi,
I found a listing called "Advice Needed." We have a site that I think could generate more contacts/referrals for your skills or service or just be a great place to network socially/professionally. Currently over 50,000 freelancers, contractors, and small businesses use it to get more business. The site is at (Link Removed) (this may change for a better name).
If this is something you're not interested in, I sincerely apologize for the intrusion. Just thought you might want to check it out.
Regards,
Eric (Removed for Privacy)
Our Response:
Eric,
Thank you for the kind thought. Actually what I really need is some filet mignon. Since you seem to be such a helpful person, I would really appreciate if rather than inviting me to your site, you invited me over for dinner. What time should I be there? I prefer my steak medium rare, and would appreciate a nice cold glass of Budlight (chilled to 33 degrees Fahrenheit, of course).
If this is too much to ask, then I don't think you are truly a real friend, and I think you should retract your initial offer. Obviously, when I posted my link on CRAIGSLIST, I didn't feel that I could afford to spend money on ACTUAL ADVERTISING, and felt that FACEBOOK was above this cause. Yet again, we have been taken away from our real goal, HELPING PEOPLE WHO NEED TO BE HELPED THROUGH HELPFUL HELP. You really upset me Eric. Now go to your room and think about what you have done.
Love Always,
Gutter Team
