This is the article to end the word ”homelessness”?!!

 “homelessness”?  
Shocked.
Shocked that the word even exist.
And shamed.
No, no.
Not shamed and shocked at our society that is not capable  enough to solve this problem.
But on the marketing departments of the big corporates  who allow that word to even exist!
These marketing departments should stop hibernating.


A pest?
A homeless shouldn’t be viewed as a pest, a social problem.
Instead it is the best marketing opportunity Anyone would Ever get in one’s lifetime!

Think about it.  When is the best branding and customer loyalty building opportunity?
How about when a person is in crisis.
And needs help.
When a person is being helped in time of crisis, he remembers you deeply.
 And  looks to return the favor eagerly.
And what word of mouth!! He will eagerly spread the story among his friends and family.
Viral marketing all bundled in, as super bonus!

So shame on the big corporates that must be either marketing blind or lazily snoring in their perpetual hibernation,  not to even sniff this opportunity.

Shame on the hotels who didn’t provide shelter.
Shame on the big fast food chain to not provide enough food to feed hunger.
Shame on the job agencies who didn’t provide the free career training and services
Shame on the banks for not loaning these people money to get their life and house back in track.
Shame on the retailers who didn’t provide the free suits and ties and clothes one need to look presentable, employable  and proud again.
Shame on the health insurers for not providing the needed insurance for health services.

I could go on and on.

For whoever that did help them,
when these homeless get back on their feets,
they will remember to eat at your food chain.
They will remember to bank at your bank .
 They will buy clothes for themselves and their family for generations to come at your store.
They will get health insurance not just for themselves but their whole families.
They will even be well off enough to vacation at your hotels. 

And possibly for their lifetime and generations to come.

Why?
Because people, in general,  appreciate favors  and will look to return favors.
They have heart and memory.
Especially in time of need and crisis.

Compare this  to some random mass marketing branding ideas presented to an average person who hates ads and don’t need your help or favor.
 They don’t care about your commoditized product.
They are fickle.
And they definitely don’t need your annoying ads and pitch.

So I m confused.  Very Confused.

Or I am stuck in some dream world.  A dream world of snoring sleeping giants.
