  • Sending cold emails to people that don’t want them sucks. It’s not going to work, and if you don’t really know what you’re doing, they’re all going to go to junk/spam anyway.

    I’ve worked in email for almost 10 years at this point. The number of people that buy a list of contacts and thinks they’re going to just drown in leads after blasting out a shitty email to a bunch of strangers is way too high, and it never works out for them. I’ve seen it attempted and failed countless times.

    Can it be done? Yea, a few people pull it off. I guarantee zero of those success stories started with a low-effort post on Reddit, pleading for someone to give them… what exactly? I don’t even know what the point of this thread is. Cold emails are a bad idea for anyone, but especially someone this unwilling to even try to learn anything.
