I think this is a decent strategy for an aspiring marketer, since it shows off actual marketing skills.

For a software dev, however, not so much. I think it could come off as insincere and/or spammy.

If I'm emailing a company about a job, its because I'm particularly interested in working there. Therefore, I really try to be as personal and specific as I can when reaching out to the company. Especially in the initial email.

Otherwise I'd risk misrepresenting myself.
