Quick tip of the dayCold-calling is tough. No one answers their phone anymore. Cold-emailing is easier, but how do you not end up in the trash folder? It all starts with the subject line. Get the recipient’s attention with the first five words, and/or make it personal by using “Referred to you by” or “Quick question” with the recipient’s name.In the body of the email itself, get to the point. If you have a mutual acquaintance, include that person’s name in the first sentence. Write like you’re talking to the person. Avoid corporate-speak, like words such as “synergy” or “paradigms.”Tell the person what you want, and be specific. And don’t forget to proofread before you hit “Send.”📧 Wondering whether someone read your email? Here are some methods to tell if your message is still unread. |
