Like you, I hate spam. I don't mind being solicited, but don't hit me with the same thing over and over (that's spam). Here's the list.
You might be a spammer if:
- you send me something in a language I don't understand.
- everything you tweet, post or email is an ad to buy your music/book/art etc.
- all of your links are to your shopping cart or affiliates.
- your email is nothing but an add for your newest album/book/project.
- you send something "fascinating" that you've found to people you don't know.
- you send an unsolicited email with your music attached.
- you send a press release to people who aren't journalists.
- you send a holiday e-card.
- you buy lists.
- more people unsubscribe than open your email.
- you're afraid to include your name and number in your newsletter.
- you're a 3 person company but have enough telecommunications and Internet equipment to power Norway.
- you're forced to keep all of your company's assets in the Cayman Islands.
- your ISP has quietly engaged a hit man to eliminate you, and your mother has contributed funds to the contract.
