We love MarketingProfs; in fact, it’s one of our favorite Web sites. Still…
At 10:14 a.m. today, we received the following promotional offer in our inbox:

Hi Scott,
Unfortunately you weren’t alone. Yep — it was a bad karma day at MarketingProfs for email promotions. We screwed up, and I’ll blog about “lessons learned” on the Daily Fix soon.
Until then, sincere apologies for all that email today. Regardless, glad you still love us.
: )
Scott I got the same stream of emails, then finally an email from MP apologizing for the multiple emails, did you receive that email as well?
