Lost a $12k contract last quarter because my proposal got flagged as spam by their IT filter
I was sitting at my desk in Dallas after sending what I thought was a perfect pitch to a mid-size manufacturer, only to find out three weeks later that their system blocked it for having too many hyperlinks and now I'm wondering how many other leads I've been missing that way?

PDF attachments are lifesavers for real. Corporate IT filters are ruthless.

You ever had a client tell you they never got your email only to find out their system ate it? That happened to me last month with a $5k deal. Same thing - too many links in the proposal. Now I send everything as a PDF attachment first.
