The best defense is a good offense I guess

So, Adult Beginner gets spammy promo emails pretty often,
If you have a blog too you know the type,
They’re all like, “Hi! I am Totally Not a robot! Your readers will be interested in my content! Please promote my website on your blog!”
I delete them like Strongbad.
Deleted!!!
Except just the other day I got one that kinda intrigued me. It was asking me to share a ballet inspired fashion line with my readers, and I liked the lookbook.
The email, which seemed to be from a real person, was all like “if you have any questions I’d be happy to answer them,”
So I was like Why Yes I Do Has The Questions!
So I wrote back with a bunch of stuff like Are the dancers in the background affiliated with a particular school or company? Is the model a dancer? What brand of pointe shoes are you featuring? And you have lots of pretty shots of Los Angeles, are the clothes manufactured here? Designed here? What’s the LA connection?
And most important question: Can I host a give-away?
And guess what, Gentle Reader?
No Response!
At All!
Whatsoever!
I totally scared them away with my interest in their brand!!!!
Hahahhahaaaaaaa!
