Bad Blogger Pitch

Notice I'm addressed as "Mr. / Ms.," and I can't even tell what this woman wants from me.
I doubt she's actually looked at my blog or Website -- nothing in her email indicates she actually has.
Listing her phone numbers is good and adds credibility, but the lack of a "real" email address, just a free msn.com address, and also the misspellings, especially in the disclaimer! don't give me a nice warm feeling

I am responding -- see below. She did send it from a proper @creafi.com address so she's probably legit

Mr. / Ms.,

My name is Gabriela Cisco and I work for Creafi Communications. The reason of this e-mail is know if you have received the last e-mail I sent you a few weeks ago.

Creafi is an online advertising agency. I've checking your website, and I would like to work with you, I believe we working together would be profitable for both companies.

I would like you to think about it and tell me what you think.

Thank you very much.
Yours sincerely,

Gabriela Cisco

Response

Gabriela,

Exactly what do you want? You message is vague and unclear.

You sent me a geneic email addressed to "Mr. / Ms.," -- if you had checked my Web site, you would have perhaps learned my name is "Ted" and addressing people by name in emails will undoubtedly increase your response rate significantly

Ted
