Not Shy?

Have you ever sent out a mass unsolicited email?

I'm about to.

All those friends, family and acquaintances who haven't heard from me in months or years are about to hear from me.

What will I be saying?
Fly
I'm not sure of the specifics, but it will basically go something like this:
Please help me to find clients who need custom websites. Small businesses or individuals who are looking to use a website or blog to grow should check out tinynow.com and get on the Slick Little Newsletter mailing list.

Why?  
 
Two reasons. 
 
1)In August, Tinynow Design (my new company) will be giving away a free website. The contest details will be in the first issue and will arrive in your inbox during the first week in August - unless you don't join the list. 
 
2)There are 99 reasons to hire Tinynow Design to build you a beautiful, functional, affordable, and accessible website - analyze them here

What do you think?

Annoying, persuasive - a little bit of both?
 
I'd really love to get some general advice on how to approach asking people you haven't heard from to help you out.

Luckily, I'm not really asking for anything but a few minutes of their time and attention - but I value my time and attention highly, so I'd like to provide them with a feeling that it was worth it to click a few links and get distracted for a little while....

Anyway, let me know what you think.
