How Patient Can You Be? http://www.nastaev.com/2008/03/25/communications-in-russia-how-patient-can-you-be/ http://www.nastaev.com/2008/03/25/communications-in-russia-how-patient-can-you-be/#comments Tue, 25 Mar 2008 19:41:58 +0000 Zalim http://www.nastaev.com/index.php/2008/03/25/communications-in-russia-how-patient-can-you-be/ I was posting about the problems one is likely to face when trying to contact for a prospective partner. A couple of months ago I was approached by Jon Lunetta of MyWaves Inc. He was exploring opportunities for connecting to Russian mobile service providers to arrange partnership programmes for their clients, with MyWaves’ technology platform. Since our TeriMobile company was already preparing for a shutdown, I compiled a small list of the industry players who had been most active by that time.

Just now, after 3 months, or maybe even more, Jon has come online again. None of the list would care to give any reply. I mean, hey, this guy is trying to get you in touch from over the ocean – how serious do you think he may be? I believe, pretty serious. If you are not interested – just be polite and say smth like “No, Thanks”. How hard can it be to type these two words? With the speed that mobile marketing industry is developing here (sloooow), I don’t think you have 5000 unread mails in your inbox…
