How to Launch a Cold Email Campaign (Without Overcomplicating It)
Campaigns fail because people jump straight into sending emails. Don’t do that. Follow this simple order 👇 1️⃣ Setup If this is wrong, nothing else matters. ✔ Clean domains ✔ Proper DNS (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) ✔ Inbox warm-up always running (warm up for at least 2 weeks before starting outreach) ✔ Low daily sends per inbox 2️⃣ Targeting Who You Email Matters More Than What You Say. Great copy won’t fix bad targeting. ✔ Clear ICP (industry, size, role) ✔ One pain point per campaign ✔ Verified, clean leads only 3️⃣ Messaging Simple > Clever Short emails win. ✔ 2-3 sentences max ✔ One clear problem ✔ One clear CTA No pitch decks. No paragraphs. Just start a conversation. Golden Rule: If setup is weak → emails land in spam If targeting is weak → no replies If messaging is weak → no meetings Fix in this order. Always.
