Listen up Marketers!

The Oatmeal lays it out for you on how not to sell something. Perhaps there are a few key ideas we can take away from the humor piece.

Like, don't be pushy like a used car salesman. Don't be over familiar like a used car salesman. Don't offer limited time offers that are not real like a used car salesman.

Basically, think of everything you would do that would be equal to a used car salesman's tactics and back it off that just a little. So maybe a notch below a used car salesman. A new car salesman? They wear better suits, right?
