Unto Them Was Born A Street Team

David Hooper, co-author of “How I Make $100K a Year…”, made an excellent point in his newsletter today, that you could look at the Twelve Disciples as the Original Street Team. In case you missed it:

while I’m on the subject…how about Jesus? If you had paid a
little more attention in church, you’d know something about viral
marketing.

This guy had something interesting…a philosophy. He took it to
one person at a time and developed the first street team, which you
may know as “the Disciples.”

This promotion worked so well for him and he got so popular that
some people got jealous and really pissed off. They were jealous.
Today, we know these folks as “haters.”

Now, there may be some other things involved (like the Almighty)
which helped this thing spread like it has… Who knows? Just
wanted to plant the seed and say, “Work the street team and don’t
let the haters get you down.”

    Joe, I got some really interesting feedback on this. The majority of people got what I was saying, but a couple or folks really took it to heart and couldn’t get beyond the religion thing. Thanks for passing the message along!!
