I was in Montenegro at an AI conference when the reports started coming in. On vacation. Which is exactly when this stuff always happens 🤦‍♂️ Clients telling me replies had gone soft. Not off a cliff, nothing dramatic. Just quietly worse. So I sat in a hotel room with my laptop and Claude Code instead of doing any of the things you go to Montenegro to do, and started running tests. Here's the part that made me stop caring about the vacation. We found domains sitting on a blacklist before they had sent a single email. Not before their first cold email. Before they ever entered a warmup pool. Zero sends. Zero complaints. Already burnt. You cannot burn a domain that has never sent anything. So it wasn't the copy. It wasn't the warmup. It wasn't the volume. We tested all of it and none of it moved. Then we found the cause, and I did not enjoy it. It's a setup I've been telling you to use for years. In this community, in my paid programs, everywhere. Every serious infra provider in the space did the same thing, because it was the gold standard. It isn't anymore. It's now one of the easiest ways to get spotted as a cold emailer, and there's a blacklist quietly picking people off because of it. We ran a clean test that proved it in under an hour. Then we built two fixes and deployed them for all new orders before making this public. Both fixes are in the video, along with how to check if you're already on the list and what to do if you are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYoh_2j6VMg Watch it before your next send. If you've bought domains in the last few months, you're the one this happened to.

577 people showed up live to Jay's masterclass on Thursday. He ran a full hour past the end because the questions kept coming. That is what the room actually looked like -> hundreds of people stuck on the same handful of things, asking them out loud instead of guessing in private. We were not going to put a replay up for this one. Enough people asked for it on the call that we did. https://leadgenjay.com/webinar-replay It comes down Sunday at midnight. If you missed it, or you want to go back over the part you half-listened to while you were doing something else, do it now. Now the part I did not expect. The codes Jay handed out live on the call have already expired. I got my hands on a small batch that still work, and they honor the exact same offer he made on the webinar. Mine die at midnight Sunday night. Same clock as the replay. If you want one, comment below and tell me what you are actually trying to fix with cold email right now. I will send it over. If you are reading this in your inbox, you will have to jump over to Skool to leave that comment. You cannot reply to this email. Ian Ryan Kirk

I wasn't going to post a replay for this one. But.. too many people asked, so here it is. Up for 72 hours and then it's gone. 577 people joined the webinar at some point, and we went an hour over because the questions kept coming. 👉 Watch the replay here Questions in the comments and my team and I get to them.

You don't need to know how to code to use Claude Code. I don't. I've never written a line of Python or JavaScript in my life. You describe what you want in plain English and it does the work, which is the only reason any of this is available to people like me. Bringing that up because of what's actually been holding you back from scaling your outbound. You could always run cold email on your own. Plenty of people do. But think about what one campaign really costs you in a week. Building and cleaning the list. Writing the sequence. Setting up domains and inboxes. Watching deliverability. Chasing replies. Pulling the numbers on Friday to decide what to change Monday. You can do all of that. What you can't do is scale it by yourself. So the ceiling was never your skill. It was that the only way to run more campaigns was to hire someone, and most people aren't going to hire a team to find out whether campaign number three works. That's changed, and that's what tomorrow is about. 12pm ET. How to get a cold email machine up in under an hour, how the whole lead gen system runs through Claude Code, and the secret strategy behind the 10% reply rates we're getting on client campaigns right now.
