When I reach out to influencers myself, I always remember to thank them for their time and thank them for consideration (even if it’s a ‘no’). The people who read your emails won’t always respond because they themselves have busy lives, but it never hurts to at least show your nice side. As a person who reads emails as part of their job, I’m always more inclined to reply back and stay in touch with someone who is respectful and appreciative.
