Are you getting in the way of your customers?

While meandering through Twitter and Facebook to see what might be worthy of sharing with my fine followers, I was keen to have a read of some Pinterest tips and hints (the wording of the title was not shouty so my hopes were high!). Sadly, before I could even find what I’d come for the larger text adverts to sign up for awesomeness bombarded me not just once, or twice but three times, before I’d  moved the mouse or down arrow! Good grief. Now really, was that a good thing? Are we, as readers, a bit fed up of this now? Or am I simply being a grumpy Brit?

I know we need to remind you, fair readers, to sign up if you want to read our next wisdom-sharings, but I’d rather be more polite and have something on the side or at the end of my post, for if you’ve made it that far, you may well be keen for more.

But to try to grab me before I even read your wisdom – well I did not hang around to find out if there was any to be had. Or am I getting it wrong? Am I supposed to shout at you and poke you until you give in out of your desire to stop the nagging? Hmm.
