John, what are you going to do, start spamming the email boxes and postal
boxes of all the people who have had their email addresses or postal
addresses sold by unscrupulous companies. I have one email address that I
mistakenly used a long time ago for one post on a newsgroup. I now receive
at least 100 spam emails a day on that account. Many have a line in their
posting stating that I subscribed..... well B_ll S__it. Never subscribed to
receive any email from any company. The address in question actually had
never been used online except that one time.
Develop your customer base the good old fashioned way. The signature line
that you use is fine in my opinion, as is Ray Goldenberg's. I and most
people I know will NEVER purchase anything from a spammer (both online and
via post office.)
BTW, a previous post you made, especially the last 12 words, showed some
decency when you posted " However, you can also go on and do all the
research and comparisons yourself if so desired, so as not to be influenced
by any travel agency, including us."
I am also in the cruise travel business with valid CLIA, IATA & IATAN
numbers. You notice I don't use any identification about my business here
since I have developed my client base the good old fashioned way. (Good
service with good prices.)
