A perfect example of how NOT to pitch a blogger through a blog comment...
March 04, 2010
You'd think the turkey could have at least filled in my name after "Dear" :-)
Needless to say, I won't be reviewing or trying his service.
(It was someone who is very obviously tracking posts related to a conference I mentioned over on my Disruptive Telephony blog and who seemed to have copied/pasted the contents of an email message into the blog comment, complete with email-type signature. The content was pure marketing-speak and had no personalization whatsoever to my blog. Too bad, because his service does sound halfway interesting... I might have looked it if he had taken a minute or two to personalize his pitch and try to relate it to what I write about. Pitching bloggers isn't rocket science, people!)
