1// The best cold emails have 3 main components:
🤜 Well personalized
Research the other person.
It takes just a few minutes but the returns are exponentially higher.
100 personalized emails >> 10000 copy paste spammy cold emails
🤜 A short intro that instils trust & authority.
Tell them who you are, what your experience is & why they should care
Tell them how much money your clients have made because of you
Learn how to write I sentence case studies from
@blackhatwizardd e.g
My name's X & I recently helped {{client-name}} more than double their revenue from $12k/month to $26k/month in just 9 weeks just through email marketing.
Namedrop your clients
Build social proof by namedropping bigger companies that everyone knows.
🤜 Strong CTA
"Interested?"
"Worth exploring?"
If your prospect likes the rest of the email and then reads the CTA, what will he think?
"Yeah, maybe I should do ads. This is definitely worth exploring."
And they will think about ads later.
They won't think about you.
They don't care about you.
But what if you had a stronger CTA?
"If you want explosive growth like {{case-study-client}}, let's talk this week?"
Now, you've transitioned them from thinking about your mechanism, which in this case is ads
to thinking about YOUR service
and thinking about YOU.
"Yeah, this guy seems to be experienced and is able to get good results. Let's just talk to him and see if he's legit."
That's it, you got the call!
which brings me to the second lesson👇
2// Your goal is to sell the phone call, not the complete service
Imagine this:
You get a cold email from a stranger from some corner of the internet
Unless you have a ton of money spare, there is a very low chance that you will pay him $5k or $10k just from an email
You'd want to
> Research him
> Talk to him
> See reviews & testimonials
So when you email someone
Give them a chance to do all this
- Share your website
- Have testimonials and case studies
- Make a VSL explaining who you are and what you do
- Get them on a phone call
The goal is to move them down the funnel
ONE-STEP-AT-A-TIME
Cold email > Phone call > Demo call > Invoice > Onboarding > Fulfillment
Don't try to take shortcuts or act smart
Sell the call, let the call sell your service.
3// Talk like a human
"Dear sir
We at [newcompany] strongly believe..."
I'll stop you right there mate.
No stop.
You don't email people like that.
> Be a little casual.
> Sound like a human
> And definitely don't send a template to 10,000 people.
Start with Hey/Hi
Introduce yourself
Do some market research about the language those people use.
The industry and person's name determines a lot about how they read, write & talk.
You don't wanna mail a 55-year-old corporate guy:
"Yo man wassup!"
But you also don't wanna email a 23-year-old founder:
"Respected sir..."
4// Keep it short
We all know attention spans are at an all-time low in 2021
If you send a 600-word cold email
NO ONE IS GOING TO READ THAT
Keep it short
Less than 150 words
And don't write in a 3-inch block of boring text
No one's going to read so much text
Add spacing & line breaks
🤜 The goal of the first part is to get the prospect to read the intro & case study.
🤜 The goal of the case study is to get the person to read the CTA
🤜 The goal of CTA is to get the person to reply or book a call.
5// If you wouldn't respond to it, don't send it.
This is by far the best test to find holes and shortcomings in your cold email.
Read it out aloud.
✔️ Does it flow?
✔️ Would you trust that guy if this was your first interaction with them?
✔️ Would you respond to it right now? Is there enough urgency?
If it passes this test, you can even run it through a friend or business partner and ask them the 3 questions above.
