A Pleading Letter to You from Your Customers

By Carl Woolston • March 31st, 2009 • Email This PostPrint This Post

Dear Business Owner,

Please forgive me if I sound ungrateful.  I would like to love your website, I really would.  It’s just that…

Well, I like to do business with professional companies.  You know, there are so many people who manipulate and take advantage of others nowadays.  When I came to your website it made be a little nervous.

dead end street A Pleading Letter to You from Your CustomersTo be candid, I heard about you and wanted to check you out.  I was looking for specific answers to some questions I had.  Unfortunately, I couldn’t find what I was looking for.  I think you’re great and all, and I’m sure you’ve worked hard building your business.  But honestly, what’s on this website for me?

I was looking for lots of free information so that I could understand you better but all the pages just wanted to sell me something.  I don’t want to be sold!  I want to learn.  I like to get educated and make good decisions for myself.

Oh, one other thing- I wanted to connect to you through a newsletter and a blog, but you didn’t have any options.  I wanted to get to know you but you didn’t give me any opportunities.

I guess I’ll take my business somewhere else.  Chalk this one up to a missed opportunity.  Honestly, your website is a dead end.

Sincerely,

One of Many Visitors
