    240ATL started from Flip recruiting 240 driving IA members
    The most viewers 240ATL has ever had is when Julio called Flip out for using PM to "steal" members... IA went there to see what was up.
    240ATL says they are more "mature" than IA on a regular basis
    240ATL started a drama section that was BY FAR the best thing they had ever done to bring in traffic, so they shut it down.
    240ATL members never miss a chance to bash IA or it members and how IA is only good for selling things... Because over there you get nothing but ridiculously low-ball offers.
    I like 240ATL too, hell I donate money every year to that site... Just wish they wouldn't front that they are some how "more mature" than IA. Bunch of kids f0 realz.
    Oh cool. Thanks. I knew some of that, but not all. Good to know. It's all the same to me. All Atlanta people talking shit. The only thing that bother me—both sites have a problem with marketing myopia.

    Short sighted and inward looking approach to marketing that focuses on the needs of the firm instead of defining the firm and its products in terms of the customers' needs and wants. Such self-centered firms fail to see and adjust to the rapid changes in their markets and, despite their previous eminence, falter, fall, and disappear. This concept was discussed in an article (titled 'Marketing Myopia,' in July-August 1960 issue of Harvard Business Review) by Harvard Business School emeritus professor of marketing, Theodore C. Levitt (1925-), who suggests that firms get trapped in this bind because they omit to ask the vital question, "What business are we in?"

    What if more than imports want to use IA? Huh? What if more than 240's want to use 240ATL? Huh? Never thought about that, did they? Jeez.
    Val for president!

    What I mean is, You have to be careful when you choose your name. Like IMPORT Atlanta or like All Pro SUBARU. It was really just a joke. I am trying to be smart with my new vocabulary I learnt.
