Hi PR Person!
I just came across your company website, what a great font you’re using! I noticed that you represent stuff I like so I’m reaching out to you because I know you’ll appreciate my blog, moosh in indy. I’m working to improve how much stuff I have, my online visibility and get my name onto every major PR list out there and I’m contacting you to help me do it!
moosh in indy is probably the best blog on the internet and when you visit you’ll be excited to find:
- pretty pictures!
- very few swear words!
- blunt honesty!
- all sorts of information about my life!
- funny stories!
- links to all my favorite stuff!
You are also probably going to want to check out my photography blog, caseymullinsphotography.com. You can also follow me on twitter! Subscribe to my blog and check out my fan page on facebook!
Your fellow PR friends will love to read my blog! So tell everyone! I of course have no intention to do much for you in return, I’d love to send you some of my business cards! Just think how lucky you are that I told you about my blog and that I’m giving you the opportunity to read it! People love my blog! You will too!
Take care and feel free to throw my blog name around liberally and be sure to email me when you’ve got your press release on how awesome I am written up and published! Thanks!

Snort.
I should write one of these.
Um…how do you suggest incorporating “magical boobies” into something like this?
;P

Did you forget to misspell a few words? Otherwise, perfect.

I especially love the ones that start with:
Dear (name here),
or
Dear ;
How else would I know that they really took the time to read my site?
By the way, I’m a terrible commenter, but I have to say how much I loved your post “you are not”. How did you reach into my brain that way? I actually want to have my husband read it. Maybe it’ll help him understand me even a little bit better… Thank you!

@Lynn @ Walking With Scissors, Yeah, that would be better…I figured calling someone PR person is just as fabulous as someone pitching Stacey…and you’re totally welcome.

Oh and if they share your site and tweet it and like it on facebook, they will *be entered* into a giveaway for a $25 gift card.
Great post! Too funny!

I somehow got on one of those mailing lists, and now no matter how many times I click that unsubscribe link, I keep getting updates about how this celeb uses this stroller, or how this new animated movie on DVD about animals will change my life.
I have actually had places ask me to pay S&H (both ways – yes they wanted it back) to review their product.

Just one mistake that I can see. It absolutely must be addressed to “Dear prperson” or “Dear .” Then it would be perfect.

They should also be sure to add a hyperlink for tracking purposes in their press release about you, preferably one that has nothing to do with you or anything you write about, like spider monkeys or Dramamine.

This is when I’m kind of okay with not being a Big Huge Popular Blogger. I never get pitches, and honestly, I’m good with that if they’re all that annoying. LOL

You nailed it. Then again, I hope a PR firm with personality (it’s a stretch) find you and takes you up on your offer. Well played.

That is so so so so brilliant. Perfect for all the book pitches I get about “Best Sellers” and artificial sweetners.
You should offer the PR companies a coupon to read your blog though.
