Today's #PRFail: "I can coordinate an interview with a spokesperson" for an organization, reads an email with no contact information, no signature and a header featuring the organization's name as the sender but another company in the email address itself. #DeleteDeleteDelete

Dear PR, I'm fine thanks, but your client should really get another consultant. Regards, Undisclosed Journalist

A PR person emailed me a pitch today (Thursday) that began: Dear John, I hope you are having a good Monday.

Whoever had "October 25th" in the pool of when I'd get my first PR pitch to open with the words "With the holiday season upon us," ...you just won.

Dear PR Firms, Don't pitch me on the weekends. You're just wasting time because they won't be read. Sincerely, Every Media Member Ever

After getting the third PR email in a week about a book or a film that I was assured would "peak" my interest, please note that if you'd like your proposals to be taken more seriously, the verb is "pique," as in "to whet" or "to stimulate," usually curiosity or interest.

Dear PR: No I don’t care about your stupid bullshit “CES survival kits”

dear PR people who put seven spaces to indent paragraphs on press releases instead of hitting the tab button like everyone else: why

If you, dear PR person or marketer, would like to ensure with 100 percent certainty that I will delete your emails immediately, begin them like this:

Dear #PR, how about looking at my email signature before asking for my contact details?

Press release titled "Catch of the day: fishless fishcakes"... they're not feckin FISHcakes then, are they? 🤦‍♂️

Dear PR people, don't add 'xx' to the end of emails. I just said 'eugh' aloud in the office.

Dear #PR "Professionals," Make sure you fill in my name before you send me your pitch. Sincerely, X

CIRCLE BACK If you want your PR emails deleted and your name subliminally logged as someone never to read, then start your RE-FORWARDED mail with: "Wanted to CIRCLE BACK". It's just in-box carpet bombing and it does not help. #journorequest

Dear PR person, No matter how many times you say "following up one last time," I don't believe you (though I desperately want to). - Kelly

Dear PR people, stop asking me if I'm coming to #IPExpo at Excel London. It's a rubbish venue, takes too long to get there, the food is overpriced and you are not paying for my travel time or accommodation #conferences #PR

dear PR people: why? why would you do this?

Dear PR professional: "Bumping this to the top of your inbox for consideration" is not my favorite opening line to read in an email. One pitch is enough, please. Signed, Too Much Email
