Emailing hosts

bargainsgirl — Thu, 25 Feb 2016 00:57:56 GMT

Has anyone emailed one of the hosts and actually gotten an email in return?

Just wondered...they have their addresses available so I would assume they would really write.

@bargainsgirl, I haven't but I've seen posts from others who have. My guess is that some of the hosts might personally answer some email messages, others might have a social media assistant who responds for them. Since all of them have to keep up with not only the hosting job but also their blogs and several social media sites, it's likely hard for them to read and respond to every email message.

hth, and maybe someone else has more direct knowledge of this.

i havent emailed any lately (mainly because if i have a question i ask on either facebook, twitter, instagram OR look to see if someone else has asked the same question.

i have emailed previously though and i can say that mary beth, jayne, and leah have all responded.....maybe one or two others. a few of the models are good at responding to questions on facebook.

I recently heard someone talking about Carolyn Gracie and they referred to "a member of her team". So I assume the hosts have clerical help in answering email and Facebook comments and questions. Didn't know they had "teams" though.

@bargainsgirl many years ago when a host first started I did. And she replied and it was very lovely.

I emailed Dan Hughs about a product years ago and he personally responded via email.

Years ago I emailed Carolyn Gracie and she responded quickly. This was before the FB push and Gary being the face of Denim & Co.

Three years ago I emailed the same question about dining in West Chester to both MBR and David. David responded promptly. Still waiting to hear from Mary Beth.

Leah wrote back to me on a question I had about a product and this has been about 7 or 8 years ago. She was extremely cordial and wrote back with in 2 days.

Many years ago I e-mailed Lisa R., and she replied very quickly. It was a very nice e-mail.

I have. It depends on the host as to the length of time before you get a response or if you do at all. I had lovely responses from Jane Tracey, Carolyn Gracie and Lisa Robertson. My emails were about product requests. Some hosts may be better than others with responding to emails or facebook.

I'm almost positive someone answers many of the hosts' e-mails. Some of them have said there is no way they could answer all the e-mails they get.

The dead giveaway was that a few times posters copied a response they received to a question they e-mailed a host and the responses were word for word identical, to different hosts. LOL
