I am a person on disability that would like to build a direct response advertising agency that combines offline with online methods for a more cost effective model. My passion is threefold to lower cost of doing business while directing consumers to more bang for their dollar and to make a small fee to bring buyer and seller together. Everything in life involves selling to some degree, from convincing someone to hire you or that special someone that you can't live without them. What I dislike is getting emails sent from people(business) that I don't know, don't know how or why I am being sent this mail. Mail that is totally irrevelant. Like for instance penis enlargement for my wife and breast increase for me. Outright scams such as the Nigerian Scam letter and envelope stuffing schemes and pyramid scams. Misleading subject lines or lines that are a bunch of random characters. And spyware and adware programs that take over a browser and send you to web pages that are not being asked for or wanted. Coolwebsearch comes to mind. My point in this part is to convey that there are lots of sleazbags that needs to be put out of business. My worst fear is that people or the government will get frustrated over these worst offenders and unable to strike at them will make an example of someone that makes an honest mistake. Myself for example new in this thing could conceviably tread on shaky ground while I am getting my feet wet and learing the ropes. A.
