Open Thread: Do You Paste the Freelance Gig Ad You’re Applying For Into Your Email?

I’m curious… I’ve sometimes lost track of which gig I applied for and I’m left wondering exactly what ad I even responded to when the person replies. Has this happened to you? I’ve started pasting the ad I’m applying for at the bottom of the email. I think this is helpful because it will not only refresh MY memory when the person responds, but it will help them know which ad I answered, and will help them know which website gave them the best responses/results.

So, do you paste in the freelance gig you’re applying for? Have you ever even considered it? Do you track them in Excel, a notebook, or…?? Share your freelance wisdom with us! ;-)
