Agenda Email Example

Hi (contact at organization),

(Brief personal message and framing) I am really excited about this new project I’m working on. It’s to promote a really important book called Agenda for a New Economy, about dismantling Wall Street and building a new economic system. Pretty bold stuff.

(Ask) If you could send the message attached to all your members on February 3rd, we think your members will respond really well to the content. We’ll pay back the favor anytime. We’re trying to really get the message of the book out there.

Thanks a lot. We’ll be in touch.

Subject line: The Real Cause of the Financial Crisis—and a Real Cure

Help Us Spread the Word about a new book by David Korten, Agenda for a New Economy!

The first 100 days of the current presidency will be the most heavily scrutinized in history, and the number one concern for the new administration—and the vast majority of Americans—is the financial crisis. Thought leaders from all around the globe have been adding their own solutions to the noise surrounding this crucial issue. Desperation has driven many to support stopgap approaches that are just re-infusions of life blood capital into the dying appendages of Wall Street—treating the symptoms rather than curing the disease.

David Korten has a better idea: Bring into being a new economy devoted to creating a better life for all, not creating false profits for the few.

Agenda for a New Economy is the outline for demolishing Wall Street and creating a new, more perfect system in its place, one not based on the illusory foundation of phantom wealth, Wall Street traders' modern alchemy of spinning gold from nothing.

Please show your support for dismantling the system by purchasing a copy of Agenda for a New Economy on February 3rd. Our goal is to rally behind the ideas in the book, to show that America is fed up with the existing system and that there is a better way.

Please help us spread the word beyond just purchasing Agenda for a New Economy for yourself and like-minded individuals by doing the following:

Tell your community about Agenda for a New Economy. Send an alert to your email list, promote it in your enewsletter, and/or promote it through your social networks on February 3.

David Korten is president and founder of the People-Centered Development Forum, chair of the board of YES! Magazine and a board member of the Business Alliance for Local Living Economies. He is the author of The Great Turning, The Post-Corporate World, and When Corporations Rule the World.
