On communication, professional and otherwise.

Email I received last week, subject line, “Can we chat??”

05.30.2012 by David Murray // 2 Comments

Hi David,

How are you doing? I would love a moment to chat with you about my new favorite item. Being an outdoor enthusiast myself, I know how important it is to always make sure I have the proper gear. And being a woman who loves the outdoors I like my gear to have a little style too. For me there is nothing better than hiking my favoite trail with a great playlist on my iPod and some good ear buds, but decent tech gadgets are always so plain! Women today want everything to be a reflection of their style. And with chicBuds bridging the gap between fashion and technology, your favorite outdoor gadget can now match your style preference perfectly! Austere ear buds are a thing of the past, with the newest addition to the chicBuds collection: ARTS! ARTS inner ear buds combine modern design with contemporary patterns and styles. Women can wear Zebra Stripes to mirror their wild side, Pink Leopard to match their summer brights, and Blue Graffiti to capture that edgy cool vibe. And my favorite part? chicBuds ARTS are made from tangle-resistant flat cords, so you can toss them in your backpack and pull them out whenever you need them, knot-free! You can check them out online here: http://chicbuds.com/arts.html, and please let me know if you want some more info or want to try a pair out for Murray, David.

I didn't have time to write her a long letter back, but I didn't want to snub her, so I just sent a quick note:

Dear Megan R,

What the fuck are you doing with your life??

Murray, David

I haven't heard back yet, but I won't press her, because she probably needs some time to think.

    Ah, the genius of social media pitching. It’s like cold calling, only less well-researched and executed. I’m surprised the salutation didn’t read, “Dear blogger:”
    Phooey.

    Mindenkinek köszönjük a csodálatos észrevételek írásomat. Milyen szép ahhoz, hogy egy kicsit magam ezeken a történeteket. Köszönjük, hogy ezt a piece.I nem kezdődhet kifejezni, hogy ez mélyen megérintett, Lia! Én csak azt mondom, hogy ez méltó egy álló ováció.
