I signed up for texts about sales from a luggage company and they have been texting me nearly every day. I finally said STOP. Do they imagine this is effective?
Yesterday: Briggs & Riley: Dreaming of one more summer adventure? Shop luggage that'll help your dreams turn into reality. Shop now: [link]
15 hours later: Briggs & Riley: See something you like? Don't let a good thing pass you by...come back and shop now [link}

It's banal, yet somehow desperate too and finally depressing.

yeah, it's annoying as fuck. I agree, OP. And I work in marketing (though not growth/digital/mobile marketing.) But, I have to say, you have no idea how much pressure those shrinking marketing departments at those e-commerce and DTC brands are under to keep growing sales at sometimes unreasonable rates. They will throw EVERYTHING at the wall because some of it DOES stick. Enough of it anyway.

OP: "I signed up ..."
OP: WHY AM I GETTING TEXTS I SIGNED UP FOR?????????

I didn’t sign up to hear from the every day , genius.
“Why am I getting these texts” was NOT the question.

It reminds me of years ago when I was more likely to boycott anything that appeared in a pop-up ad.

Yes indeed, we too use "cookies." Take a look at our privacy/terms or if you just want to see the damn site without all this bureaucratic nonsense, click ACCEPT. Otherwise, you'll just have to find some other site for your pointless bitchery needs.
