A Note to Potential Entrecard Advertisers

Ever since I posted about having to end my relationship with Entrecard, at this site, I have been inundated with ad requests.  In the last few days I have literally rejected 22 ads.  I don’t think I ever had that many requests BEFORE my announcement, and I’m not assuming that anyone even read my announcement, but WOW!

Because I am always trying to be polite, and never want to hurt anyone’s feelings, I am sending the following message to everyone who tries to purchase an ad:

Hello;

I’m afraid I’m not able to accept your ad.

Although I truly appreciate it, we will no longer be able to run Entrecard on our today.com blogs. I do still have my Functional Shmunctional site (http://functionalshmunctional.blogspot.com) at blogspot, if you’re interested. But I understand if not.

I can’t get a message to you through the regular decline, so I wanted to send you this note so you understood why I was declining the ad.

Thanks again!!

For some reason, I’m NOT able to put a polite message in the actual rejection, but I thought sending this little note to all my potential advertisers was the right thing to do.  Let’s face it, I don’t want to turn anyone OFF of this blog. 

The cyber world is a small place.  Everyone should consider how their actions, or interactions, can affect them in the future. 

I DO appreciate your interest in placing an ad here.  I’m sorry I cannot accept it.

Thank you so much, everyone!!
