So I am trying to sell a few spaces on my blog I have a total of 6 at the moment and aim to make $2000 per month of them! Below is what I have been sending out, is there anything else you think I should include?

Hope you are well, I just wanted to get in touch regarding the potential of advertising on "my site"! I am contacting businesses I believe could gain value from advertising with us.
We also have some amazing December rates! Christmas is only around the corner!

    Best Regards,
    "Hope you are well" - is patronizing.

    "I just wanted..." - the word "just" minimizes the importance of your message.

    "I am contacting businesses" - So? The recipient of your email doesn't care about you.

    "gain value" - is too abstract. Be more concrete.
