...everything from the emojis on up? I think it's just not my vibe. But I'm sure you've done it this way because it works for a lot of other people.

It sure as hell doesn't work on me. The kind of glib emoji-packed sales-slash-emotional priming spiel totally rubs me the wrong way.

Everything here screams "we're sales people first, content people second" and that's not worth my time. I'll choose quiet confidence over showmanship.
