I was digging through an old filing cabinet at my mom's house in Phoenix and found my first client pitch from 2012.
It was a full page of text, super formal, and I asked for $15 an hour. I showed it to a friend who runs a marketing firm now, and she just laughed. She sent me her current three-line email template that gets way more replies. It made me think about how much the simple 'hello' email has changed. What's the shortest pitch that ever worked for you guys?

That text from @kevinw94 is wild, honestly.

My buddy just texted "Hey, need a logo?" to a guy at a brewery and got the job.

Honestly that direct approach works way more than people think. Most businesses just want someone who can solve their problem without a bunch of fluff. Just make sure your work backs up the bold ask.
