> Don't waste your time if someone tells you to send them an email
Surely this is personality dependent, right? I detest, loathe, despise phone calls or -- the bane of my existence -- a 10 minute Zoom. I have spent my entire career becoming an expert at digesting text into something actionable, so an email (or blog post) is the perfect way to inject your value prop into my head
The actual post <https://fellowry.com/post/cm5al4dds00vzps2yuzahk8g8/don-t-wa...> also seems to imply that it's a good GTM tactic to lie about sending the email in order to gauge whether they really care about your content. This strikes me as a horrible way to start a relationship: if I ask for an email and you don't send it, expecting that you'll fish my interest out later, you have established that you don't do what you said you would and I have no reason to think your product claims are accurate, either
