Most agencies get destroyed on cold email because they pitch like this: "Hey [Name], we help businesses… Interested?" Response rate: 💩 We flipped it. Instead of pitching PR services, we reach out as journalists who want to cover their story. The approach: "Hey [Name], working on a story about [their industry]. Saw your [specific achievement] and thought it'd be perfect. Got 15 mins to chat?" Results: - 1.26% reply rate (vs 0.6% industry standard) - 67.6% positive replies - $141K pipeline from one campaign Why it works: People WANT to talk to journalists. It's free PR for them. Nobody wants another sales pitch. Once they're on the call and trust is built, we naturally transition to paid services. And yes, we actually DO write about them. Not bait-and-switch, just leading with value first. Where we're at now: - 890 mailboxes - 700K emails/month - Inc 5000 recognition Want the full training on how we did this?

Just hopped off a Clarity call with @Ian Kirk. Clarity is the operative word for that call. @Ian Kirk Pulled up ideas that were staring me in the face but I hadn't even realised I had those opportunties. Well worth the time.

first I complained about warming not sending the full warm up emails (was only sending 2-8 instead of 25 - I think i fixed this by disabling slow warm up although never had to change that before for over a year), and campaigns sending out snail mail 1/10 at a time. They are still sending out snail mail it has been nearly a month since june 1 !! What has happened?
