One overlying question here is in your contact with Anthony in particular over every other journalist out there, and how that came about. Did you know him already, have his email from a personal reference or similar, find it online, take a guess and hit send?
I suppose anyone can blindly email anyone else with hope there is interest for followup, but having that genuine starting connection makes a huge difference.
- jamesdeer 14y agoI'd say a little more than 'take a guess', but that pretty much hits the nail on the head. He turned out to be a really nice chap :)
- polshaw 14y ago>a little more than 'take a guess', go on..?
- jamesdeer 14y agoWell, as the article says. I looked for journos who had covered start-ups/companies in similar niches rather than picking someone at random.
- polshaw 14y agoI took it that the parent was asking how you made contact with the guy (eg how did you get his email), but on a second reading it's not so clear. I assume his email was probably freely available on the TC site then.
- noinput 14y agoFigured so and meant no disrespect for your tenacity to find him. If you can't disclose it's understood but I still really want to know the details.
