Four Things Not To Do When Pitching Sexy Widget

In light of these two mildly patronizing and unintentionally amusing posts from RWW and Mashable, I thought it might be important to note some worst practices in pitching a story to Sexy Widget:

1) Insult my mother.  I love my mother, and folks who insult her will not usually get their story published.

2) Steal my cellphone.

3) Tell me that widgets suck.  I don’t want to hear it.

4) Punch me in the eye while pitching a story.  Sadly, this happens more than you would think.

Other than that, you’re good.

Rock on entrepreneurs – don’t let these uppity bloggers get you down.
