I just got this email from Victoria Ransom, Founder and CEO of WildFire, a service launched in March 2009 who is handling.. guess what? Promotions!
Hi Val,Happy New Year! I hope that you have had a wonderful start to 2010! We have some very exciting things planned for the coming year, which I think you'll find very useful and which I look forward to telling you more about over the coming days and weeks. In the meantime, I actually wanted to ask you for a small favor. We were very excited to learn a few days ago that Wildfire was selected as one of the finalists for the TechCrunch Crunchie Awards (According to TechCrunch: "The Crunchies are to technology what the Oscars are to Hollywood."). The winners will be chosen based on voting…..which is where you come in! Would you be willing to vote for us? It'll take you two seconds – just visit the link below:
Vote for Wildfire: http://crunchies2009.techcrunch.com/vote/?NjozNQ==
There are only two days of voting left so please help us out by voting daily!
Thanks so much for your help and all the best for a wonderful 2010!
Victoria Ransom
Founder & CEO
103 characters wishing me good stuff.
823 characters of crappy shameless self-promotion
30 characters of signature.
Let me get this straight, Victoria :
DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT send an email to anyone wishing stuff days after some event has passed pretending that you care, while all you want is a stupid vote for the Crunchies.
And you want me to vote for a promotion service that cannot even handle it's own promotion? Think again!
p.s. If you would have bothered just to wish good stuff and say who you are, it would have fit in a tweet! Check it out !
