Idea guys these days don't even bother, it used to be that they would make a serious attempt, make documentation, mockups, a .ppt, etc...
These days I get emails from people who don't even know how to make an executive summary, how am I supposed to believe this guy can take care of the business side while I get 5 hours of sleep a day trying to code the app?
And that's the problem, if your pitch email is less than three paragraphs long I don't even bother, because I know it's probably the same one you sent some other coder and you couldn't even bother to write a proper personal request.
