A professor at one of the IIM's (INDIA) was explaining marketing concepts to the students:
1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say:
'I am very rich. Marry me!' - That's Direct Marketing
2. You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says:
'He's very rich. Marry him.' - That's Advertising
3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say:
'Hi, I'm very rich. Marry me.' - That's Telemarketing
4. You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl. You get up, straighten your tie, walk up to her, pour her a drink, open the door (of the car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her a ride, and then say:
'By the way, I'm rich. Will you marry me?' - That's Public Relations
5. You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says:
'You are very rich! Can you marry me?' - That's Brand Recognition
6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say:
'I am very rich. Marry me!' She gives you a nice hard slap on your face. - That's Customer Feedback
7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say:
'I am very rich. Marry me!' And she introduces you to her husband. - That's demand and supply gap
8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person comes and tells her:
'I'm rich. Will you marry me?' and she goes with him - That's competition eating into your market share
9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say:
'I'm rich, Marry me!' your wife arrives. - That's restriction for entering new markets :D :D
