I guess nothing beats prior establishing of good terms with that blogger, but I realize that that might not be possible in most cases.
Emailing a short, informational and friendly piece to that blogger (with a personal note) is probably the easiest bet. If the things you're pitching are good and already online, a tweet may also be enough.
I recently liked (and blogged) this advice here on that topic: http://blog.thegodfounder.com/post/6826152792/email-pitching-testing-email-subject-lines-on http://blog.thegodfounder.com/post/6826152792/email-pitching...
- startuplist 15y agoYou're right about making that personal connection with bloggers. It's probably getting harder everyday, with the shear number of startups vying for the attention of the influencers (bloggers). So it seems imperative to have something available that could streamline the process of pitching a blogger.
- nickfrost 15y agoThanks for your feedback! I agree that a simple tweet and personalized email could definitely help. I think that there is room to disrupt this process though, with the volume of pitches that most influential bloggers receive everyday that go unnoticed. Do you have your own blog, or even connections with any bloggers from the most popular blogs? Would love to do a bit of research with them.
- iSimone 15y agoHm I guess it's a hard one to disrupt and if you're at it you might as well disrupt email/online communications I guess. Well my tech blog is fairly new (http://blog.thegodfounder.com http://blog.thegodfounder.com) and I don't get these kind of pitches. The people I pitched to up until recently are not relevant in the tech scene. I guess you could always try @mikebutcher, @zee, @hermioneway etc. and point them here. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't mind having a solution to the point raised by you.
