Blogger Relations: PR folks take note

Dianne Huff's post on Blogger Relations: How to Pitch Me is right on!

Hmmm, I received 5 press releases today so far (and it's not even 9AM!) on things I have zero interest in. Anyone who reads my blog, even a cursory glance, would know that.

I hate press releases anyways -- don't send them to me!

You can send a personal email, especially if you've initiated a relationship, perhaps by leaving the occasional intelligent comment.

Personal email -- that means USE MY NAME, not "Dear Blogger" or anything else inane.

Dianna puts it all far more intelligently, and doesn't ramble like I'm doing; click here to check out her thoughts.

Ohh, another thing -- I'm busy, probably busier than you (3 little kids, etc.). Even the perfect pitch doesn't always score. Nothing personal . . .
