What do you say re: email me?

I'm doing tons of booking calls right now and I'm getting lots of "why don't you email me and I'll get back to you." What do you say to that? I'm sure it's just a way for them to say no without having to say it on the phone.

I really need to get some shows on my books!!!

Sometimes if I'm in the middle of something, I'd rather have someone e-mail me info so I can look at it when I have the time to devote to it. I'm not necessarily blowing someone off... I just know that I'm not in the frame of mind to pay attention to what they are saying at that moment. Now, I'm not saying that they might not be trying to say no in a nice way, but I don't think that's the case with everyone!

If they ask you to e-mail them, do it. Then they can never say, "I asked you to e-mail me and you never did..." Just cover your butt!

Plus, if you do follow-up with an e-mail like they asked, what's the worst that can happen?

Oh yes I definitely will email...I'm just wondering if I should be asking if they need specific info or should I send them my open dates? I just hate picking dates over email. What should I email them? Would you follow up if you email them and they don't get back to you?

If you don't like picking dates over e-mail, then don't do it.

And yes, I always follow-up after I send the e-mail to see if they have any questions. :)
