Even though the first way of asking didn't produce a results, at least the person ASKED. Most people in life don't even ASK in the first place. Even if you're not good at asking for things, if you ask enough times you'll eventually get a yes anyways. Most people, however, are too shy to even ask at all. I’d just like to add one more thing.

This could also be an indication that less is more in certain cases. I think if the first blogger had just said,

Most don't get what they want because they don't ask. Simply asking will often get you much of what you want. Then learn the skill John talks about to gain a competitive advantage.

Assuming someone will say yes is a good first step as it makes you write with a certain authority not found in a 'begging email'. Just goes to show, it's not the size of your blog, it's the size of your balls. :wink: Great post, and good examples.
