Warning Signs of BS Marketing

Hosted by: James Patrick

 

This may come as a surprise to you, but I was somewhat of a smartass at the youthful age of 21. I know there’s no way you believe that. But the truth is that cynicism is a part of my DNA. 

There was a girl I had a crush on when I was 21 and I was trying to swoon her. One evening she invited me to join her at a meeting. I accepted under one condition; if this meeting ended up being a pyramid scheme, I would walk out. 

 

The meeting was held at the conference room of a small hotel near the university. There was a keynote speaker who everyone revered and seemed to know, but I had no clue who he was. Over the next 35 minutes, he talked about this amazing opportunity to create economic freedom, become an entrepreneur, and to take control of our lives for the first time ever. All we had to do was onboard with this company. I did end up walking out of that meeting and we’re going to talk about why.

 

Today, we’re going to talk about the bullshit of fantasy marketing.

“They only want you to connect with others in the system.”
