one hell of a post by an Indian immigrant (probably? if not son of an immigrant) in the US?

Give me a break! I see the comments above n can’t stop laughing!

Most of the entrepreneurs in the US are immigrants and most of them are from Europe/Asia if not from India.

@Tracy, Half of your dirty American companies are camping out here in India and trying to do business. You guys don’t have any shame n even try to put adds in local language and you tell that Indians are trying to exploit American market? Well why not? Go read “World is flat” book. If you don’t know go search what that is.

@Jason Lie

Well Mr Moron, no one is idiot as long as they pick the right person.

@Yvonne, Again you have to pick the right person to do your job. I have seen many Americans n Canadians speaking crappy English n Who are you referring to as foreigners? Yvonne definitely sounds like French n if you are in US, you are also a foreigner. So don’t open your big mouth.

Mr Abhishek, go fix your author page first (http://www.conceptcurry.com/author/Abhishek%20Bhardwaj/), get a 404 error! This is also a form of bad communication.

It’s a shame to see that corporations would outsource anything to save a dime, ironically at the expense of not only getting poor service/content, but potentially doing harm to the corporation’s image and business. Jobs like content creation requires exceptional mastery of the English language, and many native English speakers don’t even possess that skill. It’s a complete waste of money to entrust such jobs to a foreign company unless the foreign firm exhibits exceptionally good understanding of English, and that’s rare.

most of them are shameless bunch of idiot who will talk anything to get your business and money.
and they talk nonsense pretty fast too.

but then again, most Americans, especially corporates, love them and let them run amok, taking, no, demanding jobs as if they were the only one in the planet capable of doing.

so, who is the dumber one?

I agree with you totally, not only are people from India invading my phone line and my affiliate program applications. I have only came across maybe 1 out of 100 that was not a scam or had a decent website. My advice, there seems to be an increasingly large amount of people from India trying to capitalize on the American consumer, most with websites designed with the exact poor English that you speak of, ignore them.

Everybody in the world understands , and I guess the foreign companies especially better that what you get is what you pay for, so I dont think these nerds are by any way going to hurt the industry.

Okay, am I the only one seeing the irony here? The guy on the phone (go getter entrepeneur or not) has terrible English skills but yet is trying to sell outsourced English writing services. Maybe he’s got the best crew of copy writers and editors on the planet, but you wouldn’t know it from the way he communicates. More likely, and I’m going to go out on a limb on this one, he’s some rank amateur looking to get in on the tail end of the outsourcing boom. It kind of reminds me of the guy dressed in a stained t-shirt who stands at the end of an alley offering to sell me a “genuine” Armani suit. Is he a just a hustler? Or is he someone who is going to give me a great deal? I don’t know, but I’m not going to risk my money to find out.

Your own post has a grammatical error…” has been following up like crazy as if I’M A STUPID who’ll fall for his garbage” …..
1. People who live in glass houses…

2.. I agree with Paul. The guy is just one more entrepreneur in the great Indian outsourcing bazaar. Live and let live buddy.
I recognize the cringing-i see it in the reviews of Slumdog Millionaire–”why show only dharavi?” we indians deeply care about what the white man thinks about us.
Move on and post about the subject matter of your expertise-eg why are digital providers like you not convincing Indian marketers like us to put money into digital marketing.
3. Be careful of what you post on Linkedin…your prejudice is showing.

The guy you are making fun of isn’t claiming to be a writer – takes a bit away from your point.
