@Cynthia Xin what kind of service businesses are you running outbound for?
It didn't come easy. None of it did.
Everybody keeps saying it came easy to me. They're wrong about all of it. Nobody has it easy. Not the ones who make it look that way. Especially not them. I built a wakeboarding school from nothing. Made real estate work through 100 cold calls a night. Rebuilt from zero after 2008 took everything. So people assume I'm lucky. Or gifted. Or just wired differently. I'm not. The wakeboarding school? I begged sponsors. Argued with marina owners. Fought the Forest Service for permits. Most weeks my bank account looked like a bad joke. The real estate run? 100 cold calls every night. Teams built and lost. Deals worked for months that fell apart in a day. Then 2008 hit and took every bit of it. I didn't just lose the money. I lost the version of myself I had built around making it. Four years of silence followed. None of it was easy. So when I watch someone succeed and catch myself thinking they have something I don't, I remind myself. They don't. They just kept deciding to keep going after it stopped being fun. Same as I had to. Every time. 👇 What's one thing people think came easy to you that almost broke you?

@Ossama Akhachi good call. whatever they push hardest is usually what they'd pay to sell more of
✍️ DM Strategy - I went from $24K Per Month to $42K Per Month
🚫 Stop Sending DMs That Reek of Desperation (Steal This Cold Message That Actually Got a Reply) 95% of DMs being sent right now? 💩 They read like a Fiverr VA copy-pasted it from a 2021 YouTube tutorial. You know the ones… ❌ "Hey [First Name], I help busy founders scale to 6-figures using my proven 3-step system…" ❌ "Quick question for you... 👀" ❌ "I saw your profile and thought we might be a great fit!" If you've ever sent one of those, this is your intervention. Because you're not just being ignored—you're being categorized. 🧠 As forgettable. 🗑️ As background noise. 📉 As someone not worth replying to. 🧠 How I Flipped It, just like @Jay Feldman teaches. Instead of ignoring a guy who'd been DM'ing me like an amnesiac AI… And this guy is a fairly well established influencer with a sizable IG, YT & Skool Community. I sent this: Not gonna lie --> you've hit me with more "Hey Ian"s & "How's Biz?" than an MLM recruiter w/ amnesia 😂 Figured I'd wait to reply until I had something worth showing. In the last 12 months: 222 new customers. $572K in revenue. {SCREENSHOT PROOF} All from a similar offer and audience size to yours. Not saying you're leaving money on the table... But if you are, your weak ass DM game is probably why. ✌️☮️ Guess what happens next? 👀 He replied instantly. Then booked a call. 🧨 Why It Worked ✅ Pattern interrupt – Casual. Funny. Not trying to sell. ✅ Leads with proof – No bait. Just data. ✅ Curiosity over pitch – Hints at the gap without bragging. ✅ Reverses the dynamic – He chased me. 💥 Want to Write DMs Like This? Here's the formula: Open with a jab – playful, honest, bold Drop results – numbers > adjectives Create curiosity – no neediness, just a window Position yourself as the shortcut – without pitching Shut up and let them ask 👉 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 "𝘿𝙈𝙎𝙇𝘼𝙋" 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄'𝙡𝙡 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙅𝙖𝙮 𝘿𝙈 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚 𝙩𝙤𝙤𝙡 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙧𝙚𝙬𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝘿𝙈'𝙨 It using the exact method above. Stop Getting Ignored. No more spam. No more guessing.

@Mike Levy Sent it to your DM's Mike. What are you using DMs for on the real estate side?
quick question for anyone doing cold outreach for ecommerce
are you guys getting better reply rates by dropping a short loom link or just keeping the first email pure plain text and asking permission first to send a quick video audit. testing both right now and curious what you are seeing

I'd test this as a sequence instead of choosing one forever. Send the short plain-text opener first, then use the personalized Loom after they show interest. I care more about qualified conversations than raw replies because a curiosity reply that goes nowhere can make the wrong version look better.

I wouldn't retire the domain from a SURBL listing alone. Check whether the root domain, tracking domain, or a URL inside the email triggered it, then run an inbox placement test. Fix the source first. Otherwise the same problem can follow you to the next domain.
