A PROFESSOR EXPLAINED MARKETING TO MBA STUDENTS
1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party, you go to her and say: "I am very rich, marry me". That's Direct Marketing.
2. You attend a party and a friend of yours goes to a gorgeous girl, points at you and tells her: "He is very rich. Marry him". That's Advertising.
3. A gorgeous girl walks up to you and says "I hear you are very rich,
will you marry me?". That's Brand Recognition.
4. You walk up to a gorgeous girl and say "I am very rich, will you marry me?" and she slaps your face. That's Customer Feedback.
5. You walk up to a gorgeous girl and say "I am very rich, will you marry me?" and she introduces you to her husband. That's the Demand and Supply Gap.
6. You walk up to a gorgeous girl, but before you can say "I am very rich, will you marry me?", your wife arrives. That's a Restriction from Entering a New Market.
So now you all know!

So, would the Tai boy/girls be considered as cross marketing?

Mostly Phillipinos T1. We built a horticultural structure for a plastic surgeon years ago, he turned one Phillipino guy into a girl a day, at 20K a go, and that was a real long time ago. 100K a week is not bad dosh. Some of the pics he showed us were drop dead gorgeous. (face, not his work !)
