email requests?

Post by Melissa2 »

Hi! I've been collecting autographs for some time now, but I've always done it via snail mail! :D I was wondering how you were suppose to get an autograph via email; do you just tell them how big of a fan you are and give them your address, etc.? I know it depends on who you're sending the email to- but what do you all usually write? Thanks!

:shock: Melissa2

How i e-mail celebrity's is i just say a Short message saying what a big fan i am, no too much because they prob get like millions of message's a day, request the singed photo(request personlized if want) thank them for thier time, than put your name and address.

i Hope i Helped. {thumb2}

I write e-mails just like letters with the exception that I add my address in the e-mail (right after I request the photo) instead of at the end like a letter. {thumb2}

If it is to the person's agent/manager I make it more professional, but still the basics are the same.

Hope this helped. {thumb2}

I write mine the same as I would write a letter through the mail. Make sure it looks professional, and don't use any internet slang. At the end I put my address and ask for an autograph, or if they would like me to send a SASE. A lot of email boxes get filled up really quick with bogus requests, so don't get your hopes up too high for receiving something. Through the mail has always seemed to work better for me.

I just figure that a lot of the time I'm emailing through official sites/agencies and the celeb probably doesn't read it. But I always say that I'm a big fan of so and so and that I would like a signed photo from them, and always end the email with "thank you if you can help me". And of course include my address!

As everyone said, it is just similar to TTM request.. But of course, not every celebrities will response to the message. Even if they do, try not to e-mail too frequently as the whole process could sometimes take as long as 5 months. :D
