I wasn’t intending on blogging this as there is honor amongst thieves.
However, I just got pissed off there were so many copies of the exact same auto DM that I got sick and tired of deleting them.
The screenie that you see to your right is just all of them that I can catch on my wee little laptop before you couldn’t read it any more.
There are many that I already deleted and quite a few that are below.
I don’t want to count them all. I don’t want to sink any more time than I am now.
Here’s what the Tweet auto DM says, again and again (click on the image if you want a better look):
hagenpr Thanks for following me on Twitter! Check out www.hagenpr.com. Bernhard
So, Hagen PR AKA @hagenpr on Twitter, what happened? Also, how come no mea maxima culpa?
There are so many auto DMs! Unconscionable!
Anyway, let’s see if there’s anyone else complaining about this on Google… nope.
I guess I am the only one. Can you find any?
Oh, Bernhard Hagen of Hagen PR, why did you forsake me?
Twitter Bio:
Hagen PR – Public Relations in Europe and China; twitters about the company, the client’s activities as well as business and industry news.
I am sure you and your PR firm rock. We at Abraham Harrison love Europe and my CEO and I speak German.
Why don’t you schedule a meeting with my CEO, Mark Harrison, in Austria or Berlin, and you can maybe buy him a beer on my behalf and we can put this all behind us.
From the Hagen PR website:
Today’s business communication is international. And so is our approach: We support ambitious companies with high-level public relations services in Europe and China. From strategy development to the press release – we boost your PR efforts.
I personally recommend avoiding auto DMs — nobody appreciates it and nobody likes them.
If you don’t know, a Twitter DM refers to a private direct message.
None of these ever feel authentic, honest, or intimate — especially if there are possibly hundreds of the same copy of the same message, which I daresay you and you team did not lovingly write by hand.
Pop Mark an email and set up a meeting and we’ll call it even.
