Response Forms from Biz.for.Sale - Anti-Spamming Policy

In the past, we have had numerous instances where people selling services into the franchise industry (advertising, exhibition space, etc) have used these forms as a perceived quick and easy method of getting their sales message to the franchisor.

This results in us receiving instant complaints from the franchisor and, presumably, the person trying to make the sale has substantially damaged their brand and product image.

There's a reason for this . . . . . .

These response forms go directly to a nominated person from the franchisor company who has the specific task of marketing to prospective franchisees. This person is generally senior and not responsible for assessing or procuring incoming services. Your message is therefore perceived as spam, irritates, and is normally then discarded. In short, the recipient is hardly ever the person who would normally be evaluating your product offering.

It would perhaps be more productive for you to follow their links through to their corporate website (which is normally published in the body of our ad) and use the contact forms and email addresses they provide there. That way your mail should have more chance of reaching the relevant person who will act on it.

Should you decide to use this form you need to be aware that we can detect high rate repetitive mails and your details will be blacklisted on our system. As a punite measure we simply allow you to spend hours plugging in your message which we then discard. That way we protect our client (the franchisor) and give you the impression that nobody responds to your efforts - which we hope will dissuade you from a repeat visit and from other similar marketing efforts to the benefit of internet users everywhere.!

We trust you will understand that we need to protect our relationship with our franchisor advertisors.
