Pathetic Marketing Ploy. Anyone else receive this rubbish???

RS6 LANA · 08-12-2003, 04:56 PM

Today, I received 16 emails in my inbox from DCH Audi in NJ announcing they had a grey RS6 for sale.

O YIPPEE!!! Let me now run out and buy that car from a vendor who clearly does not understand customer service. I'm not even a DCH customer. They have my email from an inquiry I made, which they never responded to.

Below is the reply I sent. Hopefully, anyone else who got this message responds the same way. I bought an Audi so I wouldn't be exposed to low-class rubbish like this!

Email:
What kind of marketing program is this? The same message in my inbox 16 times???

Take me off your list immediately, before I call the sales manager and file a complaint.

If your sales objective is to piss people off, then consider it accomplished. I have never seen such a stupid ploy to attract attention. The RS6 sells itself. It doesn't need your spam clogging my inbox to help it.

This is going right on Audiworld for public consumption.

Congrats!
