Reply on Junk Mail
Hi everyone,
I would like to say a big thank you to everyone that has made a comment or suggestion on my post this week. It has been interesting reading all the replies and comments.
An overwhelming theme is that you all think my proposed mail is junk and I agree with that.
Some junk is not junk, like the community paper or the new world specials as not all people could replace paper with a smart device.
We talked about replacing junk with something else email based and that posed the question about how to opt in initially, but still, doesn't address the issue of those with out a computer. At this time we still need junk mail for our older people not using smart phones or pcs.
This morning I had a coffee meeting with Karl Jager and he was very inspiring to talk to. Karl is studying marketing at EIT. One of the suggestions Karl made I am using right now, an application called Grammarly that he uses. It checks grammar as you type, its free and pretty cool tool to use.
So, the future looks different from here. I promise no unsolicited junk mail in your letter box from me from today forward.
To answer some of my critics I have signed up as a premium business on neighborly. My personal posts will be here and business there.
To add value to the community I have some great ideas that you will see over the next few weeks. I will post on neighborly when and where you can see that offer.
So stay tuned, have a great weekend and if you see junk mail with my name on it, well, it wasn't from me.

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.6% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.9% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!
If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

9.7% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.1% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.2% Against. I want to deal with people.
