I’m sending cold emails. For my review request business My CTA is, “Can I send you the review request sample?” If they reply yes, I send them the sample via text and email. After seeing the sample, if they seem interested, they ask the price. There are two options: I either tell them the price directly or ask to book a call. I’ve tried both, and they’ve ghosted me both times. Many people say asking for a call creates friction, but when I’ve told them the price and asked only past 50 customers’ lists, I’ve told them that if they get any results from this, we’ll hop on a call. They said yes, but then ghosted me again. I’ve been doing cold emails for the past three months, and everything is fine the open rate delivery subject, the offer with the first line personalised, and I’m still at zero clients.

Hi, I run a campaign on instantly and my inbox placement tests are showing that my emails are landing in the inbox for google. But when I send a test email to my own personal gmail account it goes into the promotions inbox. What can I do to get out of the promotions inbox and how can I trust the inbox placement tests from instantly are accurate? Any help greatly appreciated.

I’ve always been the referral queen → my business grew off word-of-mouth. But this week? I launched my first outbound campaign 🎯 And after my Clarity Call with Ian Kirk, I’ve got some key takeaways that I hope help anyone else just getting started in outbound. 🔍 Who I Help 1️⃣ “Tax Behind” clients – Haven’t filed in years? Owe back taxes? I help you get clear, compliant, and connected with resolution partners who can potentially cut what you owe. 2️⃣ Growth-Stage Biz Owners – If you’re still running an LLC, chances are you’re overpaying. I show you how to switch to S-Corp and keep more of your money. 💡 5 Big Takeaways from My Clarity Call 1️⃣ Done is Better Than Perfect Ian said: “You can’t say the wrong thing to the right person.” That hit. It’s about volume and timing--> not perfect copy. 2️⃣ Segment Your List By Problem Instead of one generic blast, I’m now running two: - “Are you behind on taxes?” - “Still an LLC? You might be overpaying.” 3️⃣ Follow the Numbers, Not Your Feelings It’s a math game: 100 sends → 10 replies → 1 booked call. Once you know the numbers, you stop overthinking. 4️⃣ Lead with a Gift, Not a Pitch I’m offering tools like: - A free “Deducty” dashboard - A quiz to see if S-Corp is a fit That filters tire-kickers and builds trust fast. 5️⃣ Let the Tools Qualify for You Planning to build a simple GPT agent that helps people self-diagnose--> because people are way more honest with a bot than with a stranger. 🛠️ What’s Next for Me - Starting light: 5 sends/mailbox/day with a slow ramp - Launching 2 campaigns with unique pain points - Tracking replies & call rates--> staying focused on the data - Plugging into Thursday’s group calls with real questions - Testing the value-first approach until it clicks 🙋‍♀️ If you’re new to outbound or feel like you’re overthinking your offer…👇 Drop a comment. Happy to share what’s working (and what’s not). Big thanks to Ian & the crew for cutting the confusion and giving me a plan. Sometimes you just need a small spark to get moving.
