Down the Aisle and Straight to...
Back by popular demand, an update on how our old friend Corey Rudl's doing.
Got a chirpy email from him today. An excerpt:
Hi Albert,
I am sending this e-mail because I need to vent...
[snip]
At first I did not think much of this pop-up killing software until a couple of months ago when I checked the stats on my pop-ups... the subscribers and sales had literally dropped in half!
Have you checked your stats recently? Have you seen similar drops in your subscribers and sales directly from your pop-ups?
Anyway, when I noticed this I was soooo angry... So after about 2 hours straight of ranting about this to my fiancee Tracy, she told me to just shut up and do something about it. So I did.
Although it cost me over $22,000 and took a couple months to fix, the pay-off has been huge and I want to show you how I did it!
If you want to see how the special technology I just developed allowed me to defeat the pop-up killers...
Careful readers will notice that "girlfriend Tracy" has now been upgraded to "fiancee Tracy." It seems you just can't stop progress.
Now Tracy, I'm talking directly to you. It was bad enough when your man shamelessly flogged a gizmo that could submit a website to "all 150,000 search engines." But now with a popup-blocker-beater?
I'll admit... your man is a strong swimmer. But against the tide is against the tide. Do you really fancy fishing him out of the ocean three years from now?
What if the best possible outcome occurs and Corey is crowned the "Popup King"? Do you know what that will make you? (Tick, tick, I can hear you doing the computations...) Unwelcome at the Googleplex, for starters.
Tracy, while it may be too late for your future husband, it's not too late for you. Save yourself while you still can.
