Another great video Chris, thanks for sharing your ideas with us
Happy to hear, thanks for watching!
@@ChrisPieta you get a response and they decide to give you 10 minutes to sell yourself, how'd you do that, what's next? How do you respond? Do you talk package, pricing or meet ups?
This is very helpful information. Trying to find emails without spending a fortune each month is definitely challenging. This process is ideal for those, like myself, that are getting started.
Yeah it can be expensive but this is a great alternative!
This is exactly what I needed! Thanks!
So happy to hear that!
This was super helpful! Thank you!
So happy to hear that Hannah!
Great info! Love Google Docs too :)
Happy you found value!
Great video! Although doesn’t it seem like those companies already have professional photographers? What type of service would you offer them?
SUPER helpful! I’ve got a question- if email account is marked as “No” under accepts all, does that mean it isn’t an email I can send information to?
Very helpful!
Thanks for watching :)
Very very helpful brother
Appreciate you watching brother!
This a GREAT VIDEO! Thank you Chris.
Is there a best time of day or best day to send cold emails?
Hi Tellem, thanks for watching! I send them throughout the day and haven't really found a best time. When do you typically check email? Put yourself in their shoes
Great tips!
Two suggestions: when you go to the potential client's site, capture their URL and copy it intoyour. That way you don't have to remember it and if you want to open their website, jsut click on the url
Second: Create filter so you can sort your information. Create your sheet w/ all the column names (first name, company etc), then enter the data. Next, go to Data > Filter >Create Filter. You'll then be able to sort your information easily
Exactly! You got it 🔥
Hey Chris if you ever run out of ideas I would like to know a little bit more about how do you approach the mood board to the client as in like inspo, guidance, what you can achieve etc ?
Thanks! You do a great job at explaining, very concise and full of value
Keep it up Chris!
Hi! That's a great idea. I'll add that to the video pipeline!
@@ChrisPieta Merci
Can i take a guess that your 9-5 role was in sales or marketing? you have such a strategic sales mind. your channel is incredibly valuable and shows photographers to grow STRATEGICALLY...something that these other photography channels lack.
Hey Victoria, thanks for the kinds words! Believe it or not, I majored in chemistry in college and I worked in regulatory. I learned sales and marketing from reading a lot of books, doing a lot of outreach/calls, and from youtube university :)
@@ChrisPieta i love your stratgy for product photography. You have any suggestions with portraits engagements events and other genres that are people focused.
Linkedin is a great resource as well to find out who works there and connect.
Definitely! Use it all the time
Hi Chris, any tips for the opposite? I am in need of a product photographer for a start up e-commerce wood working site.

Hi Chris, I recently got your Client Acquisition" pack and I must say it has saved me a lot of time and effort, so thank you from the bottom of my heart! There is one thing that I have been wanting to ask you, which is where do you stand on the idea of sending a few attached examples of your relevant work along with the cold email outreach? If I had to guess, I would say that you believe in your homepage being like a portfolio already, but I do not know what is your total experience with this particular outreach method.
So stoked to hear that! Don't add attachments because they increase your chances of email getting marked as spam. DM me on IG if you need more help.
@@ChrisPieta Thank you so much for your response, Chris!
Whats the name of the paid tool
lot of this can be automated and made easier by scraping and google dorking
Can you share thé paid method or thé name of thé software or website !?
We teach that inside Creative Biz Launch www.creativebizlaunch.com/cbl-interest
Hi Chris can you please also share the paid version?
Apollo io is my favorite
@ChrisPieta if you get a response and they decide to give you 10 minutes to sell yourself, how'd you do that, what's next? How do you respond? Do you talk package, pricing or meet ups?
Great question - everything you need is here: www.creativebizlaunch.com/offers/xQuBF3dj/checkout
If you need more help, send me a dm on Instagram @chrispieta
@@ChrisPieta thank you!
I have tried this method but unfortunately until now got no results. 90 e-mails, 2 answers without any conclusion. Finding e-mails is work by itself, and I have someone doing that job for me. But when one gets no result whatsoever, it is hard to keep on going. Quite demotivating.
Yes this is only a small piece of the puzzle. You need to have the right email copy, the right hook, credibility, personalization, ask, etc.
Then your website has to be optimized for cold email, case studies, portfolio, niche, etc.
There are dozens of little things that add up to make this successful.
I teach all this inside Creative Biz Launch, here's the waitlist: www.creativebizlaunch.com/cbl-interest
@@ChrisPieta Thank you for your answer, Chris. Email copy: I have actually tried one of your templates, and tweaked it. Website: Yes, you are right, I should add some more things. Case study is unfortunately not possible at the moment. I am happy with my portfolio, although I still have a lot to do. But motivation is hard to keep nonetheless.
Why not outsource this part to reach out to triple the amount of potential customers every day?
I do 😁
@@ChrisPieta I figured you probably did
