Sigh....I get these all the time, and delete right away.

This is all about you, your company, why you're so great.

What about me? I'm a blogger. Bloggers have egos. Play to my ego, at least try to give me the sense that you spent at least 5 minutes getting to know something about me.

Who are the publishers using the system? Why not list them.

Stop talking about yourself, talk about me, write a blog post and link to me, then maybe you'll have a shot.

Bloggers you don't have any previous relationship with are tough nuts to crack.

Good luck.

yeah - at the very least try and customize the letter to the particular person. Otherwise you're just spam.
