Here's something for the new marketing head to chew on...

I find it very tacky of Truphone to append a Truphone advertisement at the end of my SMS message. I do NOT remember giving Truphone permission to add your garbage to my text message.

Really now.

If this were a free service, I can understand why you would be compelled to do this. But I paid for this -- and at $0.20 per message, it's not even cheap.

You guys are really scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to unscrupulous practices.

I hope as the new head of marketing, YOU will think hard about what exactly the kind of image being portrayed by Truphone's practices.

Chris Moss is really a nice marketer. I wish him all the best when working as a chief marketing officer. I believe he'll improve the company's sales rates.

I can't wait to see what their new marketing chief would offer the table. I do hope he allows the company to do some experiential marketing.
