Why doesn't he put together a nice presentation package and mail it to
them? I think I know the real reason -- it costs money. It could be
argued that sending an email costs money, but hardly the cost of putting
together a decent presentation on a few sheets of flashy/nice paper and
mailing it to prospective customers. This is a higher cost to the sender
Just to play devil's advocate here for a moment: what if his business is
website design? What would YOU think of getting a snail mail from someone
claiming to be a genius website whiz? What *I* would think (if I even
opened junk paper mail, which I don't) is "this guy claims to be a web whiz
and he doesn't even know about email? I'm going to give this guy my
business? I don't *think* so!"
And into the roundfile it would go.

True, he didn't specify what was being advertised, so it could be
anything. For arguments sake, I was thinking along the lines of
something that provided a product / service outside that of hosting/web
design. Tho the issue still remains, if his prospective clients didn't
ask to be sent info, by UCE's terms, it's spam.
