How long do you wait before you resend a request?

[HitchcockFan]

Looking at other opinions, I guess it just depends on the circumstances. Just as long as the star isn't spammed.

I'll wait at least a year before resending. None of my requests have been out one year so I have several months before I'll even consider resending any of my requests!

This is definitely not the hobby for the impatient person.

It all depends on the person for me. If they're someone that usually doesn't take long to reply, I wait a few months. But if they take a long time to reply, it'll probably be a year or more. That is, if I do resend.

I would tend to wait around 6 months or more before rewriting, and I agree with pinkie:

I am an advocate of patience by and large and happy to wait, even if it means waiting years, with two exceptions.

1. Like many around here I study feedback at different forums around the world so you can get an idea if someone is replying to everyone that has sent to them. If you notice that someone you sent to is signing like mad, and you do not get a reply within a month or so of that, I think it is reasonable to resend.

2. When trying for the really hard to get people (not always big names either), it is worth a few efforts as if they do read their mail, they may be impressed with your persistance. Stuart Damon is my classic example. I sent my first request to him in 2000 via the General Hospital address and eventually got a reply in September 2007 with my 5th request to Stuart the GH address!

Had a success by rechecking agency info. In March I sent a card to Julie McNiven to an agent that I got from SAG. And they do rep her. But, not hearing anything I did some checking and then I found her website and found her Manager. So I wrote to her through them. And got the reply back in 2 weeks.
