					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Someone has their panties in a bunch;</p>
<p>&#8220;Dear Mr. Cheney:</p>
<p>Sure, I realize you want people to open your multiple emails every day &#8211; and purchase from you.</p>
<p>[ Translation: &#8220;I think selling is evil&#8221;]</p>
<p>Yet your use of graphic sexual references, anatomy and fecal waste products is crass and offensive</p>
<p>[ Translation: &#8220;I&#8217;m struggling in business and am trying to convey a professional demeanor. And yet here you are talking all normal-like and making $60k a month in commissions. I&#8217;m pissed.&#8221; ]</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve got a wide cross-section of people on your list, and many of them really hate this approach.</p>
<p>[ Translation: &#8220;I have a list but nobody&#8217;s buying my stuff and I&#8217;m projecting my anger and frustration onto you. I also feel anything I feel must also be what everyone is feeling because I am all-knowing.&#8221;</p>
<p>There are many others on your list who are also alienated by your use of rough, unrefined language and imagery. I am not alone in being turned off by any business person who regularly uses such a childish, locker-room, school yard nastiness approach to sales and marketing.</p>
<p>[ Translation: &#8220;My head hurts trying to understand how you can make so much money just being yourself when I&#8217;m having to pretend to be something I&#8217;m not and it&#8217;s not working.&#8221; ]</p>
<p>I&#8217;m willing to take a look at your offers &#8211; if you show yourself to be civil, sensitive to others and their tastes.</p>
<p>[ Translation: &#8220;I&#8217;m threatening not to buy your stuff in the hope you will become more conservative and proper like me because I&#8217;m scared by things which are not gray.&#8221; ]</p>
<p>I invite you to consider this: Stop using this offensive wording in your hundred+ emails to me each month. We&#8217;ll all be better businesspeople for it.</p>
<p>[ Translation: &#8220;How the hell can you be making $60k a month talking like this? I&#8217;m so pissed off and just wish I could vent in the way you do and make money at the same time.&#8221; ]</p>
<p>Here cometh the lesson&#8230;</p>
<p>(Zooming faster than hooker who just got paid or poop off a stick)</p>
<p>Be yourself.</p>
<p>Some people will love it.</p>
<p>Some people will hate it.</p>
<p>But you will sleep at night (and make a lot of money in the process).</p>
<p>If you get this then you&#8217;re the type of person I&#8217;m looking for to become my next affiliate apprentice &#8211; find out more here;<br />
