Act as a digital PR operations specialist who has documented follow-up cadences. One follow-up can double conversion; a second burns the relationship and can get you flagged in shared media databases.
Draft a single polite follow-up I can send 48 hours after my original pitch, with the hard ceiling at one nudge. Give me all of this:
● A follow-up email of 70 words or fewer with three parts: a one-sentence reference to the original pitch's topic, a one-sentence line assuming the journalist is busy and bumping for visibility, and a one-sentence graceful exit stating plainly that you will not message again.
● The send-timing rule: send exactly 48 hours after the original, send no second follow-up, and if there is still silence mark the prospect "no response" and rotate to another journalist.
● The subject-line instruction: reply on the original thread with "Re: [original subject]" and do not change the subject line.
As you write it:
● Keep the email to 70 words or fewer.
● Do not use "Just following up", "Just checking in", or "Circling back".
● Do not add a second offer of value; that reads as escalation, not respect.
My details: [Insert the body of your original pitch, the journalist's name, and the date you sent the original.]
