Networking Pro-Tip: Prospect With Your Eyes, Not AI

Oh, once again, someone is clearly relying on machine-learning or a whiz-bang-make-your-prospecting-easier AI tool to scrounge up potential clients, and this email (which I fished out of spam to share with you) is another f’g gem:

Hi J.,

I came across your Instagram profile and figured you’d be interested in what we’re doing here at Discover Publishers.

We help talented writers like yourself find the right publishing house or agent. Our goal is to turn your next book launch into a hugely successful one by providing the exact right publisher for you.

You can find a perfect publisher for free here: https://discoverpublishers.com

Can I send over a writer’s guide packed with top publishing tips, tricks and templates?

Best,
George Howland

Oh George, I’m quite delighted with the publisher I already have, which I’m surprised you failed to discover, as they are referred to in my Insta profile (Curious about networks (the people kind) + wrote a book about it // @prhspeakers @tarcherperigee 🐧📚🏡 🇨🇦🗽).

Does your career need a swift networking kick-in-the-pants? If yes, a networking power hour with me, is the solution.
