I've been sending cold emails since 2015 successfully.
I've received a good response and learned a lot from it.
Here's the checklist you should steal before sending any cold email.
1/ Does it say "X from the company"?
2/ Does the subject line create curiosity + urgency?
3/ Hook: Does it create "Interest"? Something that's benefit-driven. Make them "imagine". Say something that they normally don't come across (it's unexpected). Does it have a promise?
4/ Body: Is it specific? Does it create scarcity? Does it have a trigger word? Does it have a deadline?
5/CTA: use the word "imagine". And, Is it "compelling" enough? — Is it simple and clear enough to follow?
6/ Does it have a PS? Try to reiterate the "value" or "guarantee" or "benefit" and reduces one key objection.
If I tempted you to read this far -- I'd appreciate a follow @Aazarshad 🙏

A year ago, my previous startup didn't grow as I wanted it to be.
I was down and didn't know what's next.
But this year turned out great.
Joined Userpilot as a Head of Growth, grew the business 40% MoM consistently, and made it profitable.
Few lessons I learned on my way 👇
1/ Stay focused, we had an opportunity to expand into employee onboarding. We didn't go that way. Staying focused helped us achieve explosive growth in one market.
2/ Start blogging related to your topic, specialty, personas, and category. It will give you SEO credibility and keep building links to those high intent topics.
#Retention is the new growth, so if your business is struggling with retention, be ready to pivot and do something different. If you don't, you won't want to imagine what might happen. I wrote this blog for G2crowd: learn.g2.com/user-retention…
1/. Make potential customers' first contact with your product as enjoyable as possible.
Make your ad and landing page as correlated as possible. Try to keep the same voice, copy, message, and design.
2/Step into the potential customer’s brain
What are the common problems your customers are facing? Your goal is to make them addicted to your product, so point our their problems and mention your solution. Here's an example.
