3 keys to drive cold email success

1. Drive traffic to your website

1) Entice the reader by hinting at something that benefits or involves them directly.  Great examples of subject lines includes: 

  • Did you forget something? (for the abandoned product in a cart)

  • We’re starting in 4 hours (for the upcoming meeting)

  • Call tomorrow (for outbound cold calling)

2) A remarkable lift in response can be achieved by taking the time to relate to prospect by including their name, and customized sentences they can relate to, such as:

  • Commonalities  (mutual friends, shared interests, etc)

  • Compliments (ex: Congratulations for x)

  • Questions  (ex:  Can you tell me more about x?)

3) In life, you don’t get anything you don’t ask for, so be sure to add a relevant call to action at the end of your message.  Common examples include:

  • Book a FREE info session

  • Visit our website

  • Drop by our showroom
