If you send me a sales pitch on LinkedIn, I will ignore it.
So don't follow up with post after post asking if I have seen it, ask why I have not responded, send me emails with calendar invites, passive-aggressively suggest I'm wasting YOUR time.

I make no apologies for being a fan, being bitterly disappointed this evening. England played great all tournament, leave with their heads held high. France did well, no animosity.
