The Executive Email Carpet Bomb Is Alive and Well. We Just Made It Easier.
Back in the early 2000s, someone got tired of being ignored by Comcast. After endless calls and canned responses, they did something that would become legend. They collected every executive email address they could find, wrote one very pointed message, and hit send.
It wasn't subtle. It wasn't polite. But it worked.
Suddenly, customer service started paying attention. Replies came in from higher-ups. The problem got solved, fast. That moment gave birth to what the internet dubbed the Executive Email Carpet Bomb—a strategy that sounds aggressive, but is really just... efficient.
Instead of being passed from chatbot to script-reader to "supervisor," people started going straight to the top. They skipped the hold music and aimed their complaints at the decision-makers. The result? Problems got solved.
And despite all the years, all the new AI tools, all the shiny customer support tech, this still works. Why? Because executives still have assistants. And PR teams. And legal advisors who know when something's about to go viral if they don't fix it.
Enter DearCEO.wtf
We built DearCEO.wtf because this tactic still works, but most people don't have the time or energy to figure out who to email, what to say, or how to make it sound professional without losing their mind.
So we took the same concept and made it easy.
You tell us what happened. We help you write a clear, assertive message. Then we send it to the right inboxes. Not to "customer care." Not to some help portal with a form that goes into a void. To the actual leadership team.
And it gets results.
We've helped people get refunds. Replacements. Apologies. And in more than a few cases, direct callbacks from the same companies that were ghosting them the week before.
It's not magic. It's just a smarter path.
Companies want you to follow the "official" channels because most people give up. If they can keep you in the loop long enough, they win. But if you step outside the loop and put the issue in front of someone whose job depends on customer trust, things change.
You're not being difficult. You're being direct.
So the next time you're stuck in a phone queue or waiting for a chatbot to "check with the team," remember the strategy that worked before Twitter, before Slack, before generative AI support agents that sound human but can't actually do anything.
Try the modern version of the Executive Email Carpet Bomb.
We've already done the hard part.
You just need to hit send.
