Would love some honest feedback on this cold email I’m testing for agencies, trying to sell lead generation services to them.
Goal is to lead with value (lead list + outreach angle) without sounding like a typical lead gen pitch.
Hey {{FirstName}},
This might be slightly off but I was looking at {{Company}} and had a thought.
I pulled together a small list of companies similar to your current clients that you could realistically land, and outlined how I’d approach them to turn this into a steady flow of conversations.
Made sure they actually align with what you’re already doing.
Might be completely wrong here, so I didn't want to run with it without checking with you first.
Want me to send it over?
Main thing I’m trying to figure out:
• Does this feel different enough from typical cold emails?
• Is the “value-first” angle clear without sounding like a pitch?
• Anything you’d tweak to increase reply rate?
Appreciate any direct feedback 🙏
