Cold email templates

Hello {{first_name}},

How are you? I hope you are faring well.

I recently applied for the sales manager position and wanted to know when you are likely to communicate your decision. It would be an honor to join {{company}} and bring your sales projections to fruition.

I would be happy to submit additional information if you need it.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

[[your name]]

Hi {{first_name}},

My name is David Peterson and I am interested in finding out more about the senior marketing executive position listed on your company website. Your assistant provided me with this email so I could get in touch with you.

I noticed that your company won the Best Marketing Agency award for three years in a row and your name was mentioned in an article regarding your commitment to empathetic leadership. I would love to meet with you because of our shared interest in leading teams to success with the utmost emotional intelligence.

I'd love to schedule a time to discuss my suitability for the senior marketing executive position within the next couple of weeks. I am willing to adapt to your availability, of course. I will follow up with you next week if I haven't received a reply from you before then.

Sincerely,

[[your name]]

Hi {{first_name}},

As we look to 2017 our marketing department has a lot to think about and prioritize. Where to spend their budget? How many events to attend? How can they maximize our existing lead database?

Since so many of the companies we work with are asking themselves the same questions I thought you would appreciate a couple of articles on building on those strategies:

- How Our Team Got Started With Lead Nurturing
- How to Staff a Small Marketing Team to Achieve Stellar Growth
- Achieving Great Marketing Goals

How are you planning to use social media to help you hit your marketing goals this year, {{first_name}}?

Let me know if you're interested in chatting. It'll only take 15 minutes.

Thanks!

Hi {{first_name}},

How are you? I can't believe it's been [[time frame]]! I just took a look at [[their site, recent work, blog, social media feed]] and [[brief but specific compliment]].

I am reaching out to see if you'd be interested in meeting up for another [[idea exchange/coffee chat/whatever term makes sense here]].I also would love to [[find something you can show them that may be of use to them]] that you might find useful as well—and of course use it as an excuse to catch up!

Hope all is well,

[[your name]]

Hi {{first_name}},

Firstly, let me state that as the {{position}} of {{company}}, you must be getting a bunch of emails and deleting most of them just as I do.

The primary reason I am reaching out to you is to discuss your [[your competitor name]] environment. I assist organizations to transition over from [[your competitor’s name]] to [[your company name]] with [[what benefit do they gain]].

We have added over [[the number of customers]] with a healthy percentage being known, trusted [[their industry sector]].

I believe I could be of value to your business and would love to work with you. Are you available for a 15 minutes meeting on Friday?

Hey {{first_name}},

This is Irina from Hunter.

I’m working now on creating the biggest directory with cold email templates. I was checking the benchmarks for the average response rates Hunter Campaigns users achieved and noticed that you had a very successful cold email campaign.

Don’t you mind sharing with us your best-performing cold email to feature it in our directory? Of course, I’ll give credit to you 🙂

Hey {{first_name}},

Your [[choose whatever service or product you want]] is amazing! I’ve forwarded it to a few of my contacts who I think could benefit from your [[product or services]].

When I was looking at your site, though, I noticed an error. It’s a relatively simple fix.

Would you like me to write it up so that you can share it with your web team? If this is a priority, I can also get on a call.

Regards,

[[Your name and title]]

Hi {{first_name}},

I was researching [[website]]and noticed it's available only in one language. If adding a new language is in your roadmap, Lokalise will be your best friend to reduce the manual work and chaos that usually comes with it.

Companies like Revolut and Yelp use Lokalise to translate their digital assets in a few hours instead of days. Thanks to automation tools and a user-friendly interface adding new languages and managing translations with our solution is easier than ever.

Would you be interested in discussing how Lokalise could help you accelerate your growth?

With kind regards,

Hi {{first_name}},

Your [[competitor]], they’re trying to [[grab more keywords and rankings]] in Google’s local search results.

The bad news?

You’re competing for the same keywords in Google. This free [[quiz]] shows you how to generate consistent traffic (and leads) from Google, without falling behind (no opt-in required). I can also show you whether you’re gaining or losing ground to your local competitors (e.g., rankings dropped by [[x]]% in the last 30 days).

Won’t cost you a penny. May I send you the quiz?

Hi {{first_name}},

I just found you through your [[site/social media profile]].

I see that you’re climbing the ranks on Google, and deservedly so :). I’m an [[expert/job role]] at [[your company]] and realized you could reach page 1 faster by implementing these 2 tips:

[[Tip 1]]

[[Tip 2]]

There’s a third tip, but I don’t want to overwhelm you. If the first two help, do you want me to send you the third?

If not, I understand. No hard feelings :)

Hi {{first_name}},

I’m writing to follow up on my email and voicemail. We’re in the process of closing files for the month.

Typically, when I haven’t heard back from someone it means they are either really busy or aren’t interested. If you aren’t interested, do I have your permission to close your file?

If you are still interested, what do you recommend as a next step?

Thanks for your help,

[[your name]]

Hey {{first_name}}, I’m following up with you on the below email.

Do you have some time next week for a quick 15 min chat on how [[your offer]] can boost [[your reader’s business goal]]?
