I fully understand that this is a humorous post... and it is funny. But I thought I'd take a different angle and respond as if this were a serious post meant to educate.

No. That's old school belly-to-belly sales. Direct marketing would probably start with calling a list broker, getting a list of unmarried women that meet certain demographic, psychographic, and physical selects (ex: 21-29 yr old, hair color, height, weight, clean credit report, college degree, no children). Follow this with a sales letter mailout to the list. Letter highlights your strengths (I'm rich), and details who you're looking for, makes an offer (date) and a call to action (send me an email, send me your photo, whatever). Split testing this letter against another version of the sales piece sent to the same list. Tracking and comparing the response.

 

Like I said, I understand that this was a joke... but so many people use sales and marketing interchangably when it's incorrect that I thought I'd use this opportunity to give my thoughts on the confusion.

Somehow

 

You call a list broker, getting a list of unmarried women that meet certain demographic, psychographic, and physical selects . Follow this with a sales letter mailout to the list highlighting your strengths , and details who you're looking for, makes an offer and a call to action . Split testing this letter against another version of the sales piece sent to the same list. Tracking and comparing the response. Find out what party she is at and ask her to marry you.

Just doesnt read as funny to me.
