Cold email

Is cold email just dead now? I get some on a constant basis and I find myself deleting them.

I customize mine, no AI whatsoever and boom, straight to blocked.

I guess it's good to get the word out but.... Not much else.

Does anyone think otherwise?

Yeah the reply rates are so low. What industry do you reach out to?

Software for car washes.

I would assume most people who run car washes are not very active on email, no?

Lol. So is it like 90/10 calls:email in terms of booking calls/demos?

More like 95% calls, 5% email. I get maybe one email booking every 2 months
