Before you write the main part of you email or ask anyone to check out your work, in general. Write a sentence or two that simply acknowledges that whoever reading the email is a human being. If you don't, you just sound like another person who is in a race to make it and using them as a step. Also having a proper email signature at the bottom of you emails makes you appear more professional and slightly gives you a little creditability that you're serious about this. You'll get less responses if you don't make/include on VS. if you had one with all the usual information you would include in an email signature. Internships go a long way if you are wanting to network and make connections. Almost every job related to audio in some way, revolves around networking and reaching out to people. Consistently (shows commitment) going to events and meeting people face to face is very valuable. Monthly shows and all of that. Once they view you as a familiar face, they are more likely to say hello and talk to you. You don't know who knows who. Like in LA, everyone knows somebody. But always aim to be their friend first and barely even mention what you two do every day (music), they will appreciate that and find it to be refreshing for once. Like the person that walks up to you at the show you go to consistently, might run the show and be a label owner too. Toward the end of the casual conversation and barely talk about music, they might be like "Hey do you make music? Word, send me some demos, here I'll give you my contact info." People will sometimes put you on, because you sound like a genuinely good person and you're not trying to leach off of them.
