Cold Email Marketing 

Do you know that around 77% of businesses ignore cold emails? 

Businesses are struggling to get noticed with the cold emails. We know the drill, as we were once part of it. 

But not anymore! 

If you don’t want your cold emails to end up in spam, this guide is for you. We’ll discuss how to make them super hot. 

Why Cold Email Marketing Matters?

Cold email marketing is all about sending emails to potential clients to introduce your business and services. It is considered one of the most cost-effective marketing strategies. 

You don’t have to invest a lot of cold emails. You get the emails, send them the message about your product or service, and voila, chances are you will get sales. 

But it’s not that simple! Your emails should provide value so businesses can say, “Yeah, this is what they are looking for.” 

To explain this better, imagine you’re a salesperson at a business event.  You spot someone you’d love to work with, but instead of introducing yourself, you hand them your business card and walk away. 

Do you expect to make contact with this person? Chances are, they’ll forget about you. 

Cold email marketing works the same way. If your email doesn’t stand out, you’ll be forgotten.

But how do you start the cold email marketing? Good question; let’s answer this. 

How To Start Cold Marketing Email The Right Way?

A business approached us last week and stated that cold email marketing isn’t worth it. Their manager said starting a cold email marketing campaign is daunting and useless. You have to send a bunch of emails to a bunch of strangers and hope you’ll generate sales. 

We replied with a bit of pun ( why not!). 

We told him that you must have met some dumb-a**, who told you that your business doesn’t require a cold email marketing campaign. 

After getting through with him, we convinced him why his business requires cold emails. We explained to him how to do it in a simple way. 

Personalization

The subject line and first sentence of cold emails are your first impression, so we have to make it count! You can personalize it with the recipient’s name or a specific detail about their company.

For example, 

Subject: Website Needed

Hi [name of the person],

I’ve gone through your [website or social media] and noticed you don’t have a website. 

Warm Introduction

Begin with a friendly greeting and a compliment or observation about the recipient’s business. This shows you’ve done your homework and aren’t just sending a random email.

Provide Value 

Cut to the chase and explain what you offer and how it can benefit the recipient. No one has time to read lengthy emails. Remember, you’re sending cold emails to solve their problems. You aren’t going to solve their problems if your emails are super lengthy and too “salesy.” 

At [your business name], we specialize in [solution you offer], and I believe we can help you with [their specific problem].

Call to Action

End with a clear call to action. Whether scheduling a call or asking for a response, make sure to get the conversation going.

Here are some pro tips you need to remember: 

• Keep It short and sweet. 
• Use a conversational tone.
• Highlight Benefits for their business, not features
• Double-check your email for mistakes before hitting send. 

Here’s a cold email template that hits all the right notes:

Subject: Helping [client’s company name] Solve [mention the problem]

Hi [name of the person],

I hope this message finds you well! I’ve been following [client’s company name] and noticed [problem about the company]. At [your company name], we specialize in [solution you offer], and I believe we can help you with [specific problem].
