Talking and not Listening
Cordova, TN; November 13, in the year of our Lord 2023 -- Family
Friendly Gaming, the industry leader in covering the family
friendly video games is continuing to be the voice of diversity
in the gaming media, and media at large. One of the things in
the video game industry that absolutely baffles me is people in
PR and Marketing that are always talking and never listening. I
have multiple examples of this. Some of these examples are just
odd to me. Why talk and never listen? Are they that self
absorbed? Are they suffering from the center of the universe
disease?
Recently I got an email from someone that wanted me to buy
something from them. To be clear I get a lot of emails from
people who wrongly assume I have all this money sitting around
waiting to give it to hundreds of different people that want to
take it from me. I don't have it so go away. They waited a day
or two and then sent a check in email. Their first email was
asking for a meeting. If you look at our Legal page then you
will notice that anyone asking for a meeting or checking in have
incurred a fee. Well this guy incurred two fees. Claimed to love
our site and read everything we have. Obviously not the Legal
page or any of the FFG Originals.
This is where it gets funny. I replied to the second email
letting this person know how they could pay the fees they
incurred. Of course I thanked them for their payment in advance
since it shows they care enough to help us continue to exist. I
get an immediate error response that this person is not able to
receive my email. I laughed hysterically at this. They are
taking at me, and not listening back. They do not want to listen
back. They could save themselves so much time if they did not
waste it by not listening. If this person decided to listen they
would realize they received a response. Instead they will keep
checking back and there is no reason for me to respond to them
ever again.
There have been people we have worked with for years that had
the exact same problem. They would check in three and four times
and finally tell us they checked their Junk or Spam folder and
found all of our responses. Maybe you should white list us so
you can start getting responses? Until then they will continue
to waste time. I don't bother with responding again because I
know they are talking and not listening. Maybe they will read
this article and realize how they correct their mistakes.
I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day.
God bless,
