Hi Blog,

Happy Friday!

I just had to share this story with you.

This week, Paul Brodie and I took many, many complimentary consulting calls to discuss virtual summit ideas with authors and entrepreneurs.

As the saying goes…

_There is one in every crowd. _

On one call, it was obvious from the start that it would not go well.

Paul and I consider ourselves very fortunate that we can pick and choose who we will work with.

Now, we will generally work with anyone but…

this call started with “tell me why you are better than everyone else out there.”

Now, perhaps that is not an unreasonable request, but the tone of delivery wasn’t exactly amiable.

Paul politely indicated that we don’t audition with our work.

But I still thought I would give a shot at answering (because I believe we go far beyond what anyone else offers).

However, after being interrupted about 3 times in the first 45 seconds (not in a courteous way), I gave up.

This wasn’t going to be a good fit for us.

Paul politely began ending the call and provided some parting gifts (free books).

A few minutes later, we each received an email _”thanking us for ending the call”_ and suggesting that the call with us _”felt like a scam from Nigeria”_ because we ended it early.

If I responded to emails like that, which I don’t, but if I did I probably would say,

_”WELL, THIS IS THE WORST NIGERIAN SCAM IN HISTORY, BECAUSE WE WERE TRYING AVOID TAKING ANY MONEY FROM YOU. “_

Do you know what is not a scam, though?
