Will Reblogging Work Better Then Emailing?

notveryraven:

gahahaha Tumblr people irl. Meaghan O’Connell is so much taller in writing (a joke about how she is tiny, folks.)

People always say this. I am going to put my height in my blog header.

I have found that sometimes @Tweeting someone you need to reach is more effective than email. I am wondering if Reblogging will work in a similar manner. I have been trying to get a response from Meaghan via email since last Wednesday to no avail regarding a corporate Tumblr. I even went to the Tumblr event on Friday but couldn’t find a reasonable moment at the event to talk to someone from Tumblr about my needs since it was clearly a packed and popular event.

Perhaps a reblog will work! HEY MEAGHAN! CHECK YOUR EMAIL! I WANT TO TALK TO TUMBLR AS A REPRESENTATIVE FOR A PRETTY BIG FASHION BRAND! S’UP!

Ohh digital. This might be why big brands find the digital space unappealing. It takes someone in the native environment to get through to anyone. Thus your digital managers actually have to be twentysomethings in order to navigate digital partnerships. Because if phone calls didn’t work before now emails don’t work meaning you have to resort to any number of other attention grabbing tactics. And does anyone expect a busy executive to take the time to pester potential companies about partnerships via Twitter or Tumblr or Facebook message? I’ve got my doubts.

UPDATE: Yes reblogging works like @Tweeting used to work. Thanks Meaghan! Excited to talk more with Tumblr.
