Hey everybody
I wanted to offer a quick 12 steps miniguide for anybody looking to use cold email for attracting clients
I made over 300k last year promoting a B2B service with cold email, so it works.
To get traction with cold email I suggest to have enough email accounts to be able to send at least 1,000 messages a day, as each email account can only send 25/30 cold emails a day max.
To get to 1000 messages a day you can buy 15 domains and then create 3 email accounts per domain.
Here is the super quick mini guide:
Step 1
Buy 15 domain, you can go to godaddy or namecheap
Step2
Buy 3 google workspaces per domain (in the UK they cost £6 a month each, in USA should be about $7 each)
Step 3
Set up the MX records, spf, dkim and dmarc
Step 4
Warm up the inbox for 14 days, I use instantly as warmup is included in the cold email platform cost, but there are other tools
Leave the warm up on for every account, never turn it off (send max 25 warm up emails a day per email account and then max 25 cold email a day per email account)
Step 5
Get a list of your target customers on apollo (apollo dot io), or linkedin sales navigator (you can extract data with a service called scrupp, findymail or evaboot)
Step 6
Verify the emails to make sure emails are safe to send, you can use millionverifier or reoon
Step 7
Create an account with a cold email platform
I recommend instantly or smartlead
Step 8
Create a personalized intro line for every prospect, can be done with chat GPT, or if you prefer skip this step and send a very clear and short 1st message
Step 9
Load the clean data in your cold email platform (you only need first name, email, company name, if you have a description of the company even better as you can use that to create personalized first lines with chatGPT)
Step 10
Create an email sequence of 3 or 4 messages, each going out every 3 days, same title
each message should be all text and no more than 100 words
CTA should be a request for more info or to get on a call with you
Step 11
after the 2 weeks of warm up of your email accounts launch your first campaign using max 5 cold emails a day per email account
Step 12
Check replies and follow up with interested people to book them on a zoom call with you
Hope this is helpful to set you in the right direction
