I have a job that suck, toxic people can't bear them anymore. I have 3 months before my internship is completed. So i decided to start my software agency. I built my website https://jsgdevelopers.com/. I bought a bunch of leads from fiverr, basically those businesses who had shitty website. I pitched about 5 people but no one is even responding back. I feel really demotivated. Here is one of the email i sent just for example

I don't know what is wrong. Are my emails not personalized enough? (i even attached some screenshot of their website in 1 of cold email). Is it sounding fishy? Or its just luck not working out

Any help would be highly appreciated

Well I see a few things you haven’t considered 1) you’ll have pain in the ass clients working for yourself too, only difference is you can choose to not work with them at that point 2) buying leads from fiverr you’ll likely get the same list they sold to everyone else. And each of them probably gets 5 emails a day about redoing their website. 3) pitching 5 clients is nowhere near enough to know if it’s working or not. You’ll need to contact 100 to even start to decide if it’s working or not 4) business owners get 20 emails a day pitching them for services and web design is the main one so you’ll need to be better than everyone else or try be unique in some way
