How Not to Make Friends and Supporters

Them: "Could you mention my company on your blog?"
Me: "I don't think so...at least not yet"

They leave a spam comment, which never sees the light of day because comments are moderated.

Me: "Uh, why did you try to leave a spam comment?"
Them: "Oh, we hired an SEO firm and I didn't even know they did that. I'll tell them to stay away from your blog from now on."
Me: "..."

I'm not sure they "get it" that spam is not a good idea. Ever. I also am not sure their cash flow is positive. Not a coincidence. The invisible hand is about to slap them.
