I Really Wanted to Like You.

Good morning! Did you know we released several new features today? Yes, oh yes, let us show you what amazing new things we’ve done!

Oh what a good day it is—for a webinar! “A webinar?” you say, puzzled. Why yes, a webinar! We’ll demonstrate our product to you, personally, today! We really want you to love our product as much as we do.

Today is a special day! Why is it special? Because we have an offer for you, something shiny and new! Here’s a discount. Apply it right now. Don’t delay! You can’t live without this feature for another day.

It’s Labor Day! It’s Thanksgiving! It’s Black Friday! Cyber Monday! Order fast, before the end of the day. We won’t restock until next week. Only 29 days until the next holiday!

Happy afternoon, good friend! Martin Luther King Day, you say? You’re at work, we understand. Here’s a coupon on us. Wipe off that puss, upgrade right now. We promise you won’t regret it.

Only one more day left! “For what?” you question. “Our promotion,” we say! Your trial expires, today’s the last day! All these great features we’d hate to see you lose. This field is for your credit card, just enter it right here and on your bill a monthly charge will appear.

Unsubscribe?! Don’t dare do that! We hate to see you go! What have we done to upset you just so? Is it our emails? We promise to temper, you just needed to ask. We will remember.

You’ve unsubscribed, we have confirmed. We wish you wouldn’t go. Can we make it better, good friend? Is there a relationship we must mend?

“No,” you say. “I’m just sick of getting your emails every day.”
