Today we’ve got a couple of emails to tear down.
Let’s get things started with an email about outsourcing software projects. Here’s how it goes:

Let’s move on, we’ve got a couple more here:
Day 0

SUBJECT: Feedback tool for {!company_name}
BODY:
Hi {!first_name},
I found {!company_name} on Crunchbase. It looks like a great service to {!main_function}.
I have developed a survey tool which will give you plenty of customer feedback. Would you like to try it?
Thanks,

Day 7
FROM: Boolean
SUBJECT: Re: Feedback tool for {!company_name}
BODY:
{!first_name}, looks like you don’t need a survey tool. Don’t worry I will not email you anymore.
You can see my survey tool at https://www.booleanapp.com. It is for sending single question surveys.
Thanks,

Let’s jump on the teardown:
Among all the tips we give in this cast, you’ll find at least one that will be a magic touch for your cold email. You can also check out approaches that we’ve mentioned like The Fox and The Crow (Episode 19) and Mouse&Whisker (Episode 92), or you can create your own, and then let us know how it went.
Happy cold emailing!
