Big Arrow Group: Indian for “Learn to send email correctly”

Have you joined my incredibly non-annoying, once-in-a-while email newsletter?

Got an email today from Caroline Cooper. I have no idea who Caroline Cooper is. The email had a 1-megabyte .PDF attachment. Subject line: “Just introducing myself.”

Wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t bothered to check my SPAM folder, where it originally wound up. (Probably because of the typeface.)

Said the following: (Actual typeface and size kept as received.)

OK then.

a) Who the hell is Rich?

b) Why would I care that they do healthcare marketing, branding and advertising?

c) Who the hell is Rich?

d) Why would you send me, out of the blue, with no forewarning, a 1.3 megabyte promotional PDF about yourself? (which is here, by the way – be sure to check out the NINETEEN pages of promotional fluff about them.) Download big_arrow_group_credentials.pdf  –

e) Why would you send this to me in the first place? When I write about other agencies, I do so because they’ve done something brilliant that’s been brought to my attention. I don’t have an “agency to write about of the week” column or anything.

f) My name is Peter. WHO THE HELL IS RICH?
