We closed our biggest client ever today! What's funny, is they insisted on talking to me before they would sign rather than my sales team. I say that's funny, because I am about as good on the phone as a drunk money. Instead of English, suddenly I'm fluent in drunkanese. Despite the obvious nerves, etc...they still signed. Hopefully this gives someone like me some hope!

Hey, I made a post a while back mentioning that I had a 16x reduction in leads from the start of my outreach to the amount of leads that had an email I could send. But I hit a wall this week, I searched a couple states in car detailing and ended up with 892 leads (qualified with a website), but then I used Hunter.io and only had 200 emails found in those websites. Today, I started with 21 000 leads from Omkarcloud, I got this down to 4141 leads (qualified), but Hunter.io found only 665 emails total. Then I got those lists in Verifyswift to finalize my cleaning at exactly 300 leads with a valid email adress. What am I doing wrong here? I scrape thousands of leads every day and still end up like this. My workflow is Omkarcloud, list cleaning in Excel (Soon to be automated), Hunter.io and I finish with Verifyswift because I bought some credits last month. I offer SEO services with GHL.

I have $500 available to invest in cold outreach. My initial plan is to spend about $150 on: - 2 domains - 3 mailboxes per domain (6 mailboxes total) - Around 2,000 leads/month - A 3-email sequence (initial email + 2 follow-ups), totaling ~6,000 emails/month I want to start small, validate the process, and scale only if I see positive results. Since $500 is my maximum budget, I don't want to overinvest upfront and risk getting no ROI. Does this setup make sense for getting started, or would you recommend investing more from day one? If so, where would you allocate the additional budget? Also if I run this campaign, what is the results that I can expect to see?

Haha, I checked the results of my 8 campaigns that I ran so far And surprisingly the results are in binary 10101010 this is funny, lol for each campaign with 0 reply there is a campaign with 1 reply some also call it angel number, haha
