So, as you can see, Marketing
DOES
NOT = Advertising
Advertising is actually
a sub-set of Promotion, which is one part of Marketing
Some very "politically correct" people didn't like the joke and said that it was sexist in the context of an academic environment.
Well.......... I don't teach
academics, I teach business and marketing and I'll use "whatever
means necessary" to get the message across, and of all the marketing
techniques (sex, humour and fear) the perfect combination of sex and humour
is very powerful in convincing listeners about the message.
so......... if you are sensitive
person and easily get mad at jokes that are not perfectly politically correct,
read no further - go here or here
