You might be amazed at how often this happens. There have been many occasions when I have not received a reply to an initial email even though I have had all of the proper OK's on P411 and references included in my email upon initial contact. If I had to guess I would say that about 20% of the initial emails go unanswered.
I use the template for the initial contact that CPI came up with, and the ones that I have seen have said that the emails are very thorough and the tone is great.
I don't get angry about not receiving a reply. I simply move onto the next opportunity.
The ladies who are good about answering correspondence and making it easy to do business with definitely have a much easier time of securing work.
