I found these cold email templates. https://hunter.io/templates (i didn't find any nefarious things there like affiliate links, but feel free to let know)
What do you think of them?
Do you think they will convert ?
Do you have any alternative / better cold email sequence / templates please share here.

Its not mandatory how great template you have. Its based on what kind of list you have
Anyhow the template you shown are pretty clean you can give a try.

Good luck.

Ya, they look cool to me. Also they are at one place and nicely set up into categories.

A lot of these templates seem to give value to the receiver of the email, which seems pretty good to me. A while back there was this thread on bhw on cold emails that I think may be interesting to you: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/m...bs-through-cold-emails-by-bloodyninja.917339/

A little hint - any cold sales email that starts with "I" is terrible.

It's not about you, make it about them - especially if the reader has no idea who you are - they don't care what you want. Tell them immediately what you can do for them.

Agree.
"It's not about me believe me, it's all about you and your attention. Now do I have your attention?"
 
I think it really depends on your audience, how warm they are and what you are trying to sell. But just from personal experience, I ignore anything that sounds too polished because it immediately screams sales pitch. The only emails that ever get my attention are the ones that look informal and friendly; they catch me off-guard and I find myself reading them.

I think as well, go in as light as possible, something along the lines of "Hi mate, just wanted to see if you might be interested in XYZ?"

The less the better, try to make it as easy and as tempting as possible for them to reply - then once you have them in a conversation - boom - straight line their ass like Jordan Belfort would.

Everything converts (or not) to a certain degree.

In the SEO world, for outreach, I saw a 20% response rate, regardless of the template sent or the niche (personal experience in the last 4 years).

So, don't stress too much about templates because nobody will say: "My god! What a great email, I will do as this guy pleases". Sorry, you won't get this.

Instead, you will find people most of them that know you use a template (because everybody does) and if your interest in outreach aligns with his/hers interest, you will get a reply or a purchase.
 
I second this

It all depends on how good and targeted your list is. A good list can be very effective.

But most people have generic broad lists loosely based on a profession or location.

If you're going to be cold calling/emailing/linkedin or whatever, you better be prepared to deal with rejection. You need a strong pitch - cold calling is a bit better because when they pick up, you have the person right there and can get an instant reply and react to keep them on the phone.

Very easy to ignore LinkedIn and email - so you have to maximize attention. It's extra hard right now because everyone is at home and too many people are bombarding with foolish messages.

As everyone said - it is the list type. The users who are interested in is what really matters.
None will open an email without understanding / need of the topic.

But those collection is really good and helpful for starters. :)
 
Pulled the trigger on this one. Send 3 emails using those templates. 2 replied back and offered to do an online meeting, both are agency founders.
Send them the meeting invite.
Trying to figure out what to offer them? so that they convert and work with me.
 
What did you pitch to have them book a meeting with you? I would assume your offer is included in the pitch.

This one :
hunter.io/templates/sales/prospecting/can-i-help-with-pain-point X 2
and this one :
hunter.io/templates/sales/prospecting/company-name-service-and-mention

The first one has a mistake, on sig it says "Best,". Don't leave at "Best, " say "Best regards" or something.
The one I left at "Best," didnt replied back. Rest 2 did.
 
These templates are actually quite good. Especially the first one. The second feels a bit too long for me.

I just don't get which service you wrote instead of [[your service medium]]?

Yeah, I cut the second one a little bit before sending it.
One Niche skill set I learned and am working on (not WordPress) there are only 150 agencies worldwide.

I think they look pretty good. There is a possibility they will convert to some extent.
