šÆ 3 Cold Email Tips
Donāt sound like robot
Your email shouldnāt feel like someone is talking to a robot. People hate that, especially those who donāt have much free time. Keep your tone humanly, it should sound like you are talking to someone in person.
Avoid using complex words
This is one of the reason, more than 70% emails do not get reply. If you are also doing it, please donāt do that. Instead, use words that can be understood by a 12 years old.
Show their benefits
Everyone is selfish about their time, especially when it comes to giving time to someone totally strange. The only way to get their attention is by, showing them the benefits they will be getting by reading your email.
