I've written a lot about how to craft emails that get the attention of key people, but I was taken aback when I learned of a study that says it could be your name that determines whether you get a response or not. Could someone named Jamal have more difficulty getting help from a mentor or attention from a higher-up than someone named Brad?

After I moved to Edinburgh in 2004, I’ve worked in a series of roles which have all involved executive support at senior level. I actually don’t have a laptop at home and conduct all my organising, social media and emailing through my iPhone. Do you have advisor’s / board members / mentors that have helped with the network?

Scott , owner of esembe is a new acquintance, also, and even though we have only talked a couple of times be email, he offered immediately to see if he could help. I am going to mark your site as one of my favs & follow you on twitter. Will you be my mentor? And, blush-blush, I am flattered you asked me to be your mentor.
