@DannyBrown I really enjoyed reading the post concerning Alexandra Kirsch. It really isn't difficult one bit either. Sometimes it's just about putting forth that little extra bit of effort that makes the difference. Thanks for the reply by the way. I really enjoy reading your blog!
You really make some good points, especially about personal attention. If the person emailing you would have just spent a little time talking about how they could help you, or at least why they like your blog and how it could connect with their target audience, their pitch could have received a completely different end result. It is just like what you learn in public relations classes in college, create a mutually beneficial relationship. This plays out in all social media and public relations realms. Thanks for the post, it is something good to keep in mind an aspiring public relations pro.
