Boring, Sleep-Inducing Webinairs

Lately I have been plagued by people and organizations popping up on my internet pages almost demanding that I listen to them - at the same time promising the most unbelievable rewards: "Join our list of millionaires", "Do you want to be on the first rank on Amazon" and so on.

Now, I'm not against anyone trying to swing a sale or two, but this is getting too much. What makes me gripe boils down to two or three things that all have 'unprofessional' written all over them:

1. Untrained hucksters droning on at me. (I have fallen asleep on more than one occasion by listening to young men who are in love with their own voices).

 

2. The words being used seem to indicate a very limited vocabulary and an almost cretin-like level of delivery. I am particularly exasperated by a never-ending stream of:

Amazing; and...; awesome; bunch of; cool; cool stuff; guys (for a mixed audience); like; stuff; super; super excited; really; right; you know; Wow. On and on it goes...

3. Then, after suffering an hour of this, if still awake, being ushered into a clincher (into the funnel - is the sales terminology used) e.g.:

"This book (course, series of videos, PDFs etc.) would cost you $XXX thousands of dollars on the open market; you are getting it here (if you buy now) for $500."

It is like a disease - and the more these blockheads hear their own voices droning on, the more they seem to want to produce. Most would do well to take their own advice - and seek a course of voice training and projection; be made aware they are talking to many cultures when using the web; that not everyone comes from. say, sunny Southern California!
