Well, we are of course stamping our feet.
First we don’t get an invitation to a Christmas party.
Then we get an email saying that we did get an invitation but that we should not have done.
Whichever way you look at it, we weren’t wanted at the BriefYourMarket Christmas bash and are now off to cry hot salty tears in a corner.
We haven’t felt so wounded since we were the last person to be picked for any of the teams at school sports day.
The email which uninvited us – even though we hadn’t been invited in the first place – said:
“Good afternoon – BriefYourMarket here!
“You will have received an email inviting you to a Christmas gathering which was sent today using our multi-channel marketing platform.
“We have been alerted to an issue where the email was sent out to the whole database instead of the selected contact who the email should have gone to.
“We apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
Inconvenience! The date was in our diary – or at least would have been, if we’d known when it was.
A festive update: We now learn that the original invitation came from one of BriefYourMarket’s agents, and not from BriefYourMarket itself.
Actually something we can relate to, as we have had people who had asked to come off our database still getting emails on our behalf via Brief Your Market.

My commiserations to Property Eye for the awful stress you have suffered at being uninvited to something you weren’t wanted at. Do you need post traumatic stress counselling or someone to chase up this mis sold invite? Sounds worse than PPI
To all estate agents, who are supposed to be masters of communication and databases…why are you signing up to companies to do it for you? You should be briefing your OWN market, not outsourcing. Or do the companies that use this rely on texting and portals to sell houses for them…..
