Hi

My business partner and I would like to present you with an offer to purchase

We promise not to take up much of your time.Would you be interested in
selling if the price was right?

Sincerely,
Gracey Jenkins

    They’re offering $5200 but making sure from you that it makes $6000 a month in Adsense revenue?! Money back in less than a month, if only all website investments were this easy.

    Oh no, wait, I thought this was for calacanis.com

    M$1 for Mahalo? ;)

    Jason — thanks for following through on all these silly emails. It’s very revealing to me — and others, I’m sure, at just how silly they really are. (Though you do seem to be having way too much fun with them — luckily, at their expense. ;) ) Keep it up. :)

    That is the standard pitch from a domain speculator..

    I have worked for two in my life and they are the lowest scum of the earth.

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at jason@calacanis.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.

I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.

Other twitter accounts you can follow: Video Games, Open Angel Forum, and LAUNCH Conference & Newsletter
