We now have a customer that can throw away your postcard,
spam out your emails, and skip your commercial on television. You can
no longer push yourself at the customer as traditional marketing taught
you to do. Because of the upper hand of the customer to not put
anything in their face that they do not want in their face, you must pull
the customer to you: make friends, join their community, and establish
a relationship with them.
Allow them to opt-in to YOU.
You must earn their attention.
