AND ADVOCATES...
"Hi David, hope this email finds you well. I'm writing to introduce you to somebody I think might be just the person you're looking for. I first engaged Chris in the late 80s for research on a particularly unique prospect I was trying to win and had been given short notice to pitch to. Since then, Chris has moved into copywriting and frankly, she is BRILLIANT! Think public speaking, proposals, newsletters - she intuits the message and delivers it with acuity. From my point of view, she charges way too LITTLE for that - but she's one of those quirky 'technicians' who loves her work and isn't chasing the grand empire.
The GFC has just hit a long-term client of hers and I'd hate for more of that to ripple down and cause her to pull up stumps too. Can I ask you to consider engaging her and pass on her details to your contacts around the place, please?"

"At the end of the day, if we think outside the box, our communications strategies will exemplify state-of-the-art clarity, to consistently yet flexibly move our constituents toward underwriting our efforts."
An open letter to whoever penned that missive...
Dear writer,
whoever you are, call me. Because I know I can help you. Don't oversee another internal memo, a sales and marketing document, business letter, campaign slogan, submission or proposal. Please, don't write to your customers. And if you should involuntarily transition from your current career path due to "a downturn in the global market" or (heaven forbid) "a failure to resonate with the team", don't write your own resumé.
Am I being horribly unfair? I'm sorry...
You see, at the end of the day, and thinking outside of the box, your communication strategies don't exemplify state-of-the-art clarity. Thus, sadly, they do not consistently yet flexibly move your "constituents" toward anything.
Perhaps you think me naive, unworldly? Unable to identify with you?
I do. Really. I just wonder whether these cryptic and labyrinthine missives get in the way of delivering the outcomes you seek.
So please, call me: 61 08 9574 1768, or better still, have me call you
...it's for your own good :) Chris
