Cover of the guide Cold email templates that get replies

Mass, self-centered cold email no longer lands or converts. But a well-written cold email is still the most direct path to the decision maker.

This guide gives you ten proven templates, the anatomy of every part of a good email, the subject lines that get opened and a follow-up sequence that persists by adding value, not by pestering. Copy them, adapt them to your market and test.

Alex Cova
Cold email isn't dead: generic email is. People reply to emails that look hand-written, for one specific person. Personalizing isn't dropping in a first name: it's showing you understand their situation and asking for a single small step. This guide gathers what truly works.
