It’s your party…

Dear PR Flack:

Let me see if I have this straight:

1. At 12:19pm on a Saturday afternoon, you invited me to your client’s event.
2. I politely accepted — five minutes later — at 12:24pm.
3. You write back, three days later, to tell me that I didn’t make the cut because I didn’t reply fast enough (what!?) and because I’m not “credentialed media” (which, in fact, I am).

Please. This is not how professional PR works. It’s not even how a second-grader’s birthday party works. How do you think being uninvited — because you wanted someone cooler to come instead — disposes me to your client’s brand?

I can’t wait to run into your clients at Tales of the Cocktail… what an interesting story I’ll have!

Cheers,
~Anita
