Hounding the client April 20, 2007

I’ve told our vice president of new business that one of our clients does not respond well to being contacted repeatedly. During a “get to know you” lunch yesterday, the client mentioned several times during the lunch how our VP relentlessly sends email after email, sometimes even with a didn’t-know-if-you-received-my-last-email-so-here’s-another-one-to-annoy-you message. So today I told her to cool it with the emails. What do I get copied on 5 minutes ago? An email inviting the director to a happy hour at the pub around the corner tonight. I love working with this client, but in a way I hope he blows us off.

In email & microsite news, got an email from Virgin Atlantic on Wednesday with the subject line, “Is That A Boarding Pass In Your Pocket?”. Site’s Flash landing page is cute too:
