Tips 2 collecting/writing 2 celebs....

Unread post by mattyb123 »

:D Heres afew tips I've picked up.......

1.Celebrities get sent thousands of letters! So make your Intresting!

2.Personalise yours. (maybe colour your letter in).

3.Use words Like "Please" And "Thank You" (Be Polite).

4.Wait Patiently for a reply. The Celebrities Are Busy!

5.Send more than one. So your more likely to recceive a reply.

I took these from my website:

Always say what you have liked from there work.

Tell them how much it would mean to you if you had their autograph.

Always include an SASE.

Hope this helps everyone,

A tip from another post I was reading! Include your e-mail address/mobile or cell number, and you may have a celebrity contact you!

Hope This Helps,

also try to avoid sending mail at certain times of the year. Like around christmas time. People are sending gifts,cards, just basically as lot of mail. so the likely hood of it getting lost is greater. and plus they maynot get it as fast

wrote like on the cover of the envelope " Please Reply" . and I wrote to the same address 2. Do think this will increase my chances of getting a reply?

I tend to agree - writing 'Please reply' should not make your chances any higher, it could in fact work against you... The main thing is that you are patient and let the celeb reply in their own time, most of them lead busy lives and we must appreciate this.

Hope you succeed with your reply and that you post any of your successes on the forum.

Hi the music lives {up}

I think you might be onto something there! Celebrities do get loads of mail, and it is nice for them to open a letter and find that somebody is giving them something up front, rather than immediately being expected to provide something :wink:

After all, celebrities are people like the rest of us and it is nice to get something. In my opinion it could really help your collecting :P

Good luck Image
