Dear Sir,

My name is Andy Hudson.

I’m an online marketer, and am currently searching for like minded individuals and web site owners to network with, and to explore potential opportunities that can bring mutual benefit to both of us.

I just visited your site, and would like to congratulate you on a nice clean, crisp site – it’s very professional.

Oh yeah, this is a guy who’s looked at my site. If ever there were three words to describe it, I think we’d have to go with “clean,” “crisp” and “professional.” Hah!

So, by the time I got to the line in the spam that said:

“No false promises, but I think this could be the start of an excellent win/win relationship.. “

I was already thinking “Gotta blog this!” But then it got even better. Here are the closing lines from this Seasoned Internet Marketing Professional:

Many thanks.

Your name.

Andy Hudson

Yo, Andy baby: It’s ok not to realize that “Your name” is placeholder text in the spam generator you’re using, but it is most definitely not ok to spray your spam around without even mailing it to yourself first to test it.

So, when I say “Shove your spam up your integrated marketing portal, Andy Hudson,” I hope you understand that I mean this only in the most clear, crisp and professional sense.
