I have to apologize to you ... 

In my email yesterday, I made the improper use of an apostrophe!!!

When I wrote "the Wal-Mart's and Best Buy's of the world", I should have written "the Wal-Marts and Best Buys of the world". 

Bad, bad Marc ... 

A thoughtful reader emailed me to point out this glaring error before she unsubscribed from my list, so I hope it didn't ruin her day too much (or anyone else's!) 

In case you haven't noticed, this email is dripping in sarcasm. 

I don't get too worried about typos or grammatical errors, nor do most successful people that I know. 

They're too busy to email a stranger to notify them of a typo. 

Back when I was a kid, I used to read comic books. Some of them awarded "booby prizes" to readers who spotted any errors in the last issue. 

If a name was misspelled, or a mistake related to the plot made it into the comic, we kids could write in and let 'em have it. 

Come to think of it, I never did mail anything.

I was too busy back then, too (playing baseball, marbles, riding my bike, and doing other "kid stuff") 

I don't work well with perfectionists or nit-picky people. They make bad clients, since they spend too long preparing anything that they want to release out into the world. 

Growing a coaching business requires speed, and that attitude will have you knocked out faster than The Joker after being punched by Batman. 

If you're someone who isn't afraid of being called out on your grammar, we could work well together: 

Cheers,

Marc
