3 simple steps to write the perfect cold email


The goal of writing a cold email is to get it read. Each word and sentence you use should persuade the reader to move to the next one, right until the end of the email.
In short, your email should be designed to produce the results you want — a meeting with the prospect. And these 3 simple steps will get you there.
  1. The opening line
  2. Propose the value
  3. End with a call-to-action 

Step 1: The opening line

Sending the same email copy to 100 prospects will get you 0 responses.
If your cold email doesn’t start with something about the research you’ve compiled about the prospect, their company or the market, nobody is going to respond to you. A little bit of flattery here works, but don’t go overboard by listing all their recent activities.

Step 2: Propose the value

Your recipients don’t care if your business has won an award, or what you do is awesome in every single way. What they care about is why should they read your email. So once you have a great opening line, get to the point and talk about,
  1. Why are you reaching out to them?
  2. What can you do to help?
  3. The benefits of starting a business relationship with you
  4. Examples of how other companies are benefiting from your offering

Step 3: End with a call-to-action

This step is pretty straightforward—what do you want them to do after reading your email. It can be either to, schedule a meeting, reply to your email, signup for your solution, etc.
Whatever you want them to do, make sure you have only one call to action, and it is pretty simple and straightforward.
  1. I would love to get on a short call with you for a quick review of your current systems and how we can help.
  2. {first_name}, It would be great if we can get on a short 10-minute call on Friday at 2:00 pm?
