- MrQuincle 11y agoI have a part that I write for a subset of journalists, for example for journalists that are into gadgets, or mainstream technology, or green technology. Then I prepend this with something personal about their work. My response rate is around 90%. It is a lot of work though! :-)
- reach_kapil 11y agoThats pretty cool! would love to share that list with some of my entrepreneur friends that need them. You can share dropbox link if you like.
- MrQuincle 11y agoI am looking for something that allows control about the quality of the emails that are gonna be sent to that list. So, for example someone publicly vetting for someone else in some way. Just as a lot of sharing sites (i.e. couchsurfing) it must be possible to build up a reputation or to convey that you are serious. Also, signing something that you will make the email fun to read or worth their while might be an option. Just thinking out loud. The ideal case would be journalists that organize this for themselves. "This is how you should contact me". :-)
