Relational Anchors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The first thing your pitch email needs to do is prove you\u2019re not a weirdo spammer.<\/p>\n<p>Weirdo spammers get ignored immediately.<\/p>\n<p>And since there are so many of them, most of us automatically assume that emails from people we don\u2019t know are from weirdo spammers.<\/p>\n<p>Relational anchors are the best way to counter that.<\/p>\n<p>They explain your connection to the recipient and prove you have a genuine reason to be emailing them.<\/p>\n<p>Laura\u2019s email had 3 of them:<\/p>\n<p>The opening communicated that she\u2019s a
