UPDATED: Had to share this funny, witty, yet important #IT #Tech #Marketing wisdom that was shared via email to me..

My favorite social network is actually:  email.  I know that sounds old fashioned but I do have several close circles that share jokes, posts that I should read and I'll be the first to admit that I scan my email before scanning my Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn, or Facebook.  My tightest circle of friends/fans/associates are the ones that I share emails with ..

However, sometimes someone shares something that is too good to not share with the broader world of social media and avid marketing practioners ... Here you go and it's pretty funny.

Elizabeth Quintanilla, Austin's Marketing Gunslinger, appreciates Andy Rooney's style 

Here’s the excerpt:

Why won’t you tell me why I care about whatever you are selling? Some companies seem to want to tell me why they care about their stuff – although I suspect they care about my money even more – but never why I would want it. Really, when you get down to it, isn’t it more important that I care and not you? Passion is great, so share some. My mother taught me that you don’t keep all of a good thing to yourself. You give some to people you like. Maybe they just don’t like me enough.

My only regret is that the person didn't share the source of the article .. I'll have to ask her to again and post a comment on this witty point of view.

UPDATED:  The source of the excerpt is:  http://www.enterprisestrategygroup.com/2011/12/in-memory-of-andy-rooney/  Thank you, RZ for sharing the source with me. 

I hope you enjoyed the excerpt (and article) as much as I did.

Your Chief Marketing Gunslinger,

Elizabeth Quintanilla
