Visual representation was the best personalized thing i've ever seen . People gets irritated of cold emails which are sent to 1000 others and they don't feel comfortable . Personalized emails are really cool
I like your teaching style, and you aren't trying to sell an ebook or course. That gives your advice even more weight and value. Your content is relatively related to your product, yet not direclty selling it, great credibilty builder, bravo ;)
Super good job on this video very informative, well-presented, and you are a good speaker. I've been driving back from Las Vegas to Los Angeles and I've listened to hours of bad email videos. I'm also a big fan of proposify
Treys email contains a video thumbnail and link to the actual video. Im interested to know if it got into your inbox and was the image displayed the first time?
Wow, this is gold! 1) What do you think? Is it a good idea to use the calendly link as a CTA at the end of the email? So the clients can choose the time to set up a meeting with me? 2) Is it okay to send cold emails to private email addresses or business addresses only? 3) What do you think about tracking pixels in the email to see when the client reads the email? Thanks
Yes, bottom line, the email from Julie makes you feel like, "oh God! The last thing I want to do is have a conversation with this robotic salesperson." In a sense, when you are specific and tuned-in to a person, *that* telegraphs that it is going to be comfortable to talk with you-the opposite of agenda-driven and robotic.
Is there anyway to create a replybutton / canned reponse feature in your email for your recipients to use? I want to make their repsponding tome easy and want a feature with my emails to them to allow them to just click a button that send a automatic response to me e.g "Interested, call me in the new year" Is this possible?
Thanks for your question! It all depends on the who, what, when, where and why of your email campaign that can impact response rates. Just play your law of averages and learn from mishaps. Happy closing!
@@ProposifyInc Thanks for the reply and making this video, very helpful when i've quit my job and started my own business and now need to market myself. Thanks!
Hi Shal, we don't have a video for that episode of the Biz Chat, but you can listen to the podcast episode or read the corresponding blog post here: bit.ly/31Fr64W. Thanks for watching!
Please note that cold emailing is illegal in some countries, eg. in Europe. Also, most unexpected E-Mails from businesses are simply ignored and go right to the Spam or are deleted. Just to keep that in mind.
Hi Gaurav! Thanks for watching! Great question! While you could follow a template for a cold email, it's also important to personalize and engage your recipient as much as possible. We elaborated in our blog! I'll link it here for you (www.proposify.com/blog/the-best-cold-email). There's some great tips and tricks to make sure that you're sending the best cold email possible. Cheers!
Hi Paco! Kyle mentioned a few tools but the one you're looking for is Unamo. It's an analytics tool that generates reports on your website's visibility, which could be used to help get your prospect's interest in your cold outreach. Happy emailing!
What to do if I'm in a city where no one gives a shit about digital marketing and they don't check their emails? Should I directly meet them at office or cold call them?
Personally I think that showing up to an office unannounced is rude and abrasive, but it depends on your target audience - sometimes more old school business owners appreciate the personal touch. Cold calling may be the better approach though. I may do a follow up video soon on the best cold calling tactics.
Hi, I really like this video, I am interested in your podcast, is there any page or direct link that I could visit to listen to, or just a name to look for it. I always listen to Educational Marketing strategic content while I´m cleaning or in a jog, even working, so please, give me that name. Warmly, Fernando.
To comply with Canadian law, you need to give a clear way of unsubscribing, prove legitimate interest, include contact credentials, put an info about what kind of a message it is
My only concern with adding a link to my email is how many people are being scammed VIA email. It may worry quite a few people seeing the link there. What are your thoughts on that?
It's best to stick to only one link - the one in your email signature that links to your website. But if you're still interested we have a blog post about it. blog.woodpecker.co/cold-email/links-in-cold-email/
Great video, the only comment I have would be to redo the audio. There's a ton of peaking and crackling with digital clipping throughout the entire video. I master audio for videos and commercials.
I disagree with you on several points and at the same time agree with everything you're saying. But let's be honest about the #1 reason you don't like Julie's email, you're not interested in what she has to offer. The whole point of Julie reaching out to you wasn't to get a phone call (even though that was her point of conversion). The real reason she sent them out was to see who was interested. You assume that you not replying is a bad thing. When in reality you've helped her do her own lead qualification. With that said, I agree with everything else you said. Had she been more particular she could have increased her chances of getting a response. But still chances are that if you're not interested in her value prop now you probably wouldn't be later.
My point is that her value prop isn't well targeted to me, she just sent a cold blast to a million people with a generic pitch. But even if Julie was offering something of value, do you think her approach/pitch was on point? Do you not think it was vague, self-serving and unlikely to get noticed? - Kyle
@@ProposifyInc I think it would have attracted some people. Just a lower quality lead. Even an average campaign has a 3% conversion rate. Let's be honest, if she sent that out to 800 people she probably would have gotten 5 to 12 responses. People who might have been interested in even a vague notion of making more money. I'm not advocating her technique. But even I sent an email that was just a selfie of me holding a carrot to 1000 prospects, at least 10 are likely to reply. But that's just my experience.
You are so exaggerated with: the best cold email, I don't think that was a great email, just because they recorded a video, it doesn't mean the went above and beyond to study your company and customize the email. They do it every time they reach out to a prospect: cos they sell software focus on recording WEBSITES U genius. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at least Julie put more effort writing her email
Hello, very informative video. I have 2 companies, one is TrafficWave.net which is an autoresponder company and the other is Melaleuca which is a wellness company that sells vitamins, house products, facial products. can you recommend lists I could use? or place I could advertise? Thanks
“The Goal of a Cold Email is not to Close a Deal - it’s to Learn if a prospect is Right for you” (Y)
It's a good quote!
I legit have people telling me “this is the best cold email I have ever received” it cracks me up every time 😂

Inspiring video! I was going to do a similar method with direct mail but now I'll do it email.
Am I the only one wondering what's hidden behind that brick next to his forehead?
The bodies of everyone who's ever cold emailed me.
Now I can't unsee it
"next to his forehead" ?
But it's behind him....
Great content. Thanks so much

How would this translate to cold emailing for freelance writers

Was the video actually personalized or was only the thumbnail personalized?

Great video and super helpful tips. Especially the word count advice and the comparison of good vs bad email. Thank you

Was going to watch but it's too long 🙈
Maybe one day
Let us know what you think if you get a chance to watch the full vid!
Oh, you really should watch it. It was so worth it, I downloaded it on my device so I can watch it over and again.
what are the response rate people are getting per 100 emails using these methods? would love to hear! about to send my first batch off

I know of a similar service to "Magic Goggle". It basically sells itself. But, thanks for the video.

I wonder if she ever saw this!
Can’t it be more clear on the good cold email example? It’s rather blurry
just judging by the look of the email, it looks like they privately posted the video on youtube, so if the watch count goes up, they knew you saw it.
dope video bro
I love this

Would sending an email like this be considered a CEM (commercial electronic message) or would it comply with CASL (Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation)?
To comply with Canadian law, you need to give a clear way of unsubscribing, prove legitimate interest, include contact credentials, put an info about what kind of a message it is
My only concern with adding a link to my email is how many people are being scammed VIA email. It may worry quite a few people seeing the link there. What are your thoughts on that?
I think as long as the subject line and language are very clear about what's contained in the link you should be good.
