My face when a cold email starts with...
⛔️ Can I send you lunch?
⛔️ Do you want to know how?
⛔️ My name is...
⛔️ At [company], we...
⛔️ I hope you're well...
⛔️ Apologies for...

The problem: You're drinking too much of the company Kool-Aid
And you know what, it's not your fault.
During onboarding, you were told that your company is the best. That you're a category leader. You were conditioned to believe that prospects will meet with you because the company is so great.
But your prospects don't give a sh*t about any of that.
They care about themselves. And to stand out, you have to meet the prospect in their world first.
- Their priorities
- Their goals
- Their problems
It ain't your fault, but it's your responsibility to be better.
Try doing the opposite by opening your emails with:
✅ “Your _____”
✅ “What you _____”
✅ “Love your _____”
✅ “_____ was great…”
✅ "_____ stuck out..."
Start every cold email with something about your prospects:
- A risk from their 10-K
- An initiative from a quarterly or annual report
- One of their interviews
- One of their LinkedIn posts
- A problem you can see on their website
If you want meetings with enterprise execs, put in enterprise effort.
