You were pissed, and you wanted everyone to know it-except for the one person you’re actually upset with. (Note: I have no research to back that arbitrary figure up, but I’m just going to assume every person who bought a copy of Your Favourite Weapon had a Brand New away message ready to queue up whenever the right moment struck.) Here are some of the lyrics that made their way into hundreds of AIM away messages at one time or another. And what better way to express yourself than through the words of your favorite bands? It was your way to tell all your buddies what you were thinking or feeling when you weren’t actually at your computer. You know what I’m talking about: the away message. I don’t miss GuitarGurl925, but I do miss the many opportunities AIM provided to share song lyrics. (Just seeing “girl” spelled with a “u” makes me cringe.) However, I can rest a little easier knowing that many of you probably had equally bad (or worse) screen names. Granted, I had two other screen names, but this one stayed with me all through high school. Take a cue from PR guru Gini Dietrich-make your message memorable by framing it with a pop culture reference.It’s time for a moment of truth: I’m about to reveal my AIM screen name. Watch for me in the upcoming Out of Office Message “At a Wedding,” coming this winter! 5ĭon’t have time to craft the perfect response? A relatable comic or infographic is all you need.īest out of office email I’ve received in a while… /cKau0N59Kd Troy: The answer is simple Billy: Paul is in San Diego this weekend providing support for an event and nowhere near his work email.īilly: When is he going to be coming back?īilly: Is he going to reply to the email they just sent? McClure? Why is Paul not answering any emails right now? Hi, I’m Troy McClure! You may remember me from such classic Out of Office Messages as “I’m at Outside Lands Watching Metallica” or “Visiting My Family in Florida.” I’m here today to talk to you about Paul Sokol, and the email you just sent him.īilly: Mr. Why not soften the blow with an adorable poem that informs and delights? Toronto tomorrow for #SMSociety! Out of office email all sorted… /SRp2n7x439 Thanks for swinging by! More importantly, thanks for giving my life purpose and meaning! You can also peek at what she’s up to in Boston here. But for me, it’s like my Chrismakwanzakah - HOORAY! I have something to do today aside from make microwave nachos and binge-watch Netflix! The latter is precisely what’s going on now! The B2B Forum might be an awesome event for B2B marketers. Upside: I spend the vast majority of my time sitting around, waiting for Ann to take a vacation or for the B2B Forum to roll around. (Mind blown, right?)īeing an auto-responder is not a bad gig. Who is on email: Me, the email auto-responder.įun fact: Ann and I never, EVER are on duty at the same time. Guess who is available on email and who is *not* available on email this week! Getting an auto-reply is by definition impersonal, but Ann turns a cold response into a friendly conversation through some clever personification, while also promoting the event she’s attending.
Do you really want to interrupt his vacation? 2ĭigital marketing guru Ann Handley has become legendary for her humorous out of office responses. Venture capitalist Josh Kopelman shares the facts, then presents the option to choose your own adventure.
Sometimes honesty is the best course of action.
