A catch phrase will go here soon.

More Equinox spam

1/31/2009

I keep getting these emails from different sales folks. Kind of sad that you have to spam former members 5x a week… Really.

IT’S NOT FITNESS. IT’S LIFE.

    Jason, I agree, I keep getting the exact same spam from these
    guys… Curious why’d you leave them? Did you find someplace better?
    Keep up the great insight.

    I have been getting these for the last two years. Nothing I can do stops it.
    The best part is their entire opt-out / change email code is broken
    beyond repair.

    Oh, yeah, these guys are the bottom. Their standard (only)
    New York membership deal includes full year contract,
    out of which you can get out only in case of death
    or dismemberment of body parts, and then only if you notify
    them in writing within three days from the life changing
    event. It also renews automatically at whatever price they
    find fit each year, unless you notify them in writing
    two months in advance.
    Not sure if the same contract is used in California,
    New York might be a specific market where this type of
    customer abuse is considered classy.

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at jason@calacanis.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.

I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.

Other twitter accounts you can follow: Video Games, Open Angel Forum, and LAUNCH Conference & Newsletter
