EzyLearn has been an online training company for Office Admin and Business Admin courses since the Internet appeared and geez I could tell you some stories about what I’ve seen.

Something frustrating is happening at the moment and it pits the developing countries again rich countries like Australia.

If you’re reading this because you received an email notification then you’re a subscriber to our blog – WELCOME!

We manage this list using MailChimp because it helps us to be compliant for AntiSPAM requirements but it doesn’t stop people entering all sorts of information into our “Lead Capture Pages”.

PS. Did you know that QuickBooks Online owner, Intuit, now owns MailChimp?

Anybody around the world can enter details into an online form – even someone else’s details. Sometimes these tasks are performed automatically like we saw with Eric Jones!

You might think to yourself that it is not worth the time to enter fake details into a form but that’s because we have a social security system and a minimum wage.

How much does someone earn in India or The Philippines?

When you consider how much the residents in these and other developing countries earn, you can see why some companies would hire teams of people JUST to bring a competitor down let alone increase their own profile.

These are some of the recent entries we’ve seen in just one of our Course Information pages for Xero and MYOB training courses.

Having said this email marketing is one of the best ways of reaching your potential audience without having to pay for online Google Ads or Facebook Advertising.
