Comments on: Stopping the junk mail flood 4 http://stilgherrian.com/marketing/stopping-the-junk-mail-flood-4/ All publication is a political act. All communication is propaganda. All art is pornography. All business is personal. All hail Eris. Vive les poissons rouges sauvages!

It's disrespectful, but economically at least - makes sense. Crashinoz And I have a comment on Real Estate companies:

I haven't commented on this in ages, but have been keeping an eye on developments. I have a couple of comments: 1) In my area, Dominos Pizzas do not put junk in my mail box with a "No Junk Mail" sign on it. I had of course mentioned to the local store that I don't buy from people who disrespect my wishes in this regard, and I DO pick up their leaflets at the store. 2) I found it interesting that in the lead up to the recent election the Greens ignore No Junk Mail signs. I would have thought someone with a No Junk Mail sign would be the sort of person they would respect. 3) I have found American Express are very good at removing you from their mailing list. 4) I have reversed the charges to call companies that have junk mailed me (even when they have a free call number). The extra effort to p*ss them off seems to make a difference. Great Blog - keep it up. Thanks Crashinoz Hi there !! I haven’t commented on this in ages, but have been keeping an eye on developments.

The Real Estate Institute of Australia has been emailed <em>twice</em> about this issue, and there was no reply. And this is from their listed email address for public affairs. It really is such a shoddy industry. @Geordie: That reminds me. The Real Estate Institute of Australia has been emailed twice about this issue, and there was no reply.

I want a sign that'll fit on my letterbox that says "No Junk Mail Unless It's New Technology Products, Nearby Contemporary Australian Or French Fusion Cuisine, And Seriously, No, Never, None Real Estate Agents."
