Fast Company thinks I’m Slow
I signed up for the Fast Company “First Impression” newsletter. I was intrigued, especially with the title. As the saying goes, “you only get once chance to make a first impression.”
I was greeted with this:
This email to me seems misguided and also lazy. You are counting on me to read this quote and click through to read the article, which is just 4 or 5 paragraphs anyway.
Why not just out the full article in the email? Why is there no article title or summary? Why just a quote?
Do I really need this mystery everyday? Do they really just want me to click through and get a pageview for their ads? There are already 2 ads in the email.
I unsubscribed. It can happen that fast….just one email. The old saying is true.
Thanks to Return on Subscriber for this great article.
