Striving for mediocrity

Email This Entry

Posted by Dave Evans

Yup, I'm in a mood today.

I'm amazed at how many dating sites email me about uploading photos without providing resources for getting my photo taken. Where is the coupon for a webcam, where is the LookBetterOnline link? $130 is still way overpriced but they seem to be the market leader. There are other photo companies out there, but they seem to choose Obscure Marketing Tactics that keep them off consumer's radar. At least tell me to go to a mobile phone store, check out the new phones, get my photo taken with a camera phone and maybe offer a coupon for $10 off the phone. How difficult is this to do? Don't get me started on the "finish your profile" emails.
