In this rapid-fire episode, Jack and Jeremy tackle six cold email and outreach questions submitted by listener Trey. From proper greetings and cultural nuances to incentives and defining success, the hosts share actionable insights based on real-world experience. Whether you're new to outreach or refining your strategy, this episode has something for every B2B emailer. Key topics discussed: - Why using "Hello" in cold email greetings can sound too formal or robotic - The importance of matching your tone to your recipient's culture or geographic location - Using industry-specific language to better connect with your prospects (e.g., "What are y'all building?") - Clarifying the definition of a "qualified lead" versus a "prospect" - Measuring the success of cold email campaigns based on conversations started, not just closed sales - Offering gift cards or incentives in exchange for sales calls — when it works and when it doesn't - The psychology of value perception when offering monetary incentives This episode is packed with practical advice, real examples, and a few laughs as Jack and Jeremy explore what really works in cold outreach.
