cold pitch station
*. research first. write second. send with purpose
★the rules
- email a person not a place — find a specific name on linkedin first
- research before you write — reference something specific about them
- lead with them not you — first sentence is about the company
- clear subject line — not "hello" or "enquiry"
- one ask only — a 20 minute call, not a list of everything you can do
- send links not files — check permissions before sending
- send tuesday morning — use schedule send
