Prospecting with a Sense of Humor

This was by far one of the most creative prospecting emails that I have received in a long time. It did drive me to respond – to others looking to connect with new people, try using some humor.
Adam,
I have tried to reach out a few times over the past week to go over your lead generation / prospecting strategies at CA Tech. I have not heard back from you and this tells me a few things:
1) You are all set with your current prospecting / lead gen strategies at CA Tech, and if that is the case please let me know so I will stop bothering you.
2) You are interested but have not had the time to respond.
3) You are being chased by a hippo and need me to
call Animal Control.
Please let me know which one it is as I am beginning to worry..
Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you
Ingenious… a simple message coupled with humour works best…it reaffirms that we’re all human!
