How to Get Pre-Publication Quotes

According to Roger C. Parker (a $32 million author) you should avoid information overload when soliciting quotes from published authors, readers, and experts.  Instead of sending your entire manuscript, consider a brief statement of purpose and your table of contents for non-fiction, or a synopsis and your two best chapters for fiction.  In your cover letter or email, however, offer to send the entire manuscript upon request.  Some individuals will take you up on your offer, but many more will be happy with these pieces.
