Poor Targeting
Cordova, TN; October 30, in the year of our Lord 2023
-- Family Friendly Gaming, the industry leader in covering the
family friendly video games is continuing to be the voice of
diversity in the gaming media, and media at large. I am one of
those people that is constantly analyzing and trying to puzzle
things out. I consistently come up with interesting ideas that
could make things better in a plethora of ways. I discuss and
debate all kinds of interesting ideas from world events to our
place on this planet. One of the interesting topics that has
been off and on for years is poor targeting from PR and
Marketing. Initially I thought they were just lazy. There is of
course plenty of evidence to support that fact.
Recently a new thought came to me based on recent evidence. Part
of it comes to the realization that too many in PR and Marketing
do not care. They do not care about us in any way shape or form.
We are slave labor to them. They see us as fodder that do
whatever they say. I have seen plenty of press releases end with
rude, nasty, and hateful things like: "if you find any mistakes
in this press release, good for you. Do not tell us about it."
Don't they want to improve, grow and get better? No they do not.
They do not care. They are entitled and expect us to fix their
mistakes. They cannot be bothered to have good quality. They
look down on us.
This is not the only example of this poor attitude and messed up
perspective. Whenever some product fails we are sent emails
blaming us for not doing enough work to make them enough money.
By the way they do not pay us to do any of that work so they
come off as hateful taskmasters over slaves. I have personally
witnessed bribes being paid from large gaming media outlets to
people in PR and Marketing. There have been people in PR and
Marketing that hinted to me I should give them one hundred
dollars to be given a free copy of a game that retails for fifty
dollars. No thanks I will buy the game for fifty instead. Truth
be told they should be paying us with advertisements and
sponsorships. I am appalled that corrupt gaming media outlets
are paying off people in PR and Marketing.
The problem too many in PR and Marketing do not comprehend or
realize is that bad attitudes and not caring is contagious. It
will come back to bite them as more and more gaming media
outlets decide it costs less to purchase a copy of the game at
retail. Also why should we cover their game? We can cover
whatever we want. There are plenty of video games to cover. We
do not need to be their fanboys and fangirls. Why should we care
about their sales when they never advertise or sponsor us? In
the end their attitude spreads and ultimately costs them money.
We have opened a lot of eyes with our leadership in the video
game industry. We have educated quite a few people. Too bad that
many of them are refusing to correct course before they crash
into that iceberg.
I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day.
God bless,
