I worked in cold email and sent millions of them for 6+ years. I stopped sending cold email campaigns a few weeks ago.

If you research someone and want to message them out of the blue, make it personal and you might have a chance. And I mean personal: study them, listen to what they said publicly, only reach out if you actually have a connection.

If you want to send out a thousand emails a week to randos... Best save your time, and theirs. It's not worth it.

I actually rambled about my time and lessons from cold email here if you're curious.

Focus on speaking slower. Sometimes I need to record videos that I'm nervous to record, and blabber my way through literally 50 takes. If I just focus on speaking more slowly, somehow I don't mess up as much (or at all).
