Writers Beware
If you are a writer beware of slick talking folks trying to recruit you to be on their team of writers for some project. What they will do is try to use psychology on you to feel all warm and fuzzy, promise you exposure or something of this nature. But in reality they want to use you to promote their political agenda, website or their own business.
Writers must be very careful of these “emails” which tell you how great your writing is and trying to butter you all up. In fact these emails go out to many people, not just you. You might feel special, but it is only a game these scum play, beating around the bush, trying to develop report only to use you and your labors for their own purposes.
As an online writer; I cannot tell me how many people have used practically the exact same schmoozing crap on me. It makes me sick to my stomach. So if this is their idea of marketing, I think they have missed out on some target marketing lessons. But they use these recruitment techniques because they work on most people who are of weak mind.
If you want to recruit low self-esteem writers I suppose these techniques would work and most writers are Prozac Cases anyway. But the top of the food chain writers or a human-plus, high-level, no prisoners Winner, then these same tactics will not work.
For weak-minded pusses, who have self confidence issues, need someone to tell them how special they are and feed on compliments from Lessers, that might work. Otherwise they see right thru it and instantly categorize them as a sham, or fraud. And this is how these recruiters come across to me. I hope you as a writer can see thru these moron recruiters full of hype and chocking on their own pathetic bull. Consider this in 2006.
