Posted on July 7, 2025 by founder

If your cold emails are getting ignored, it’s probably because they’re all about you. Your company. Your product. Your features. Your awards. Your clients. Nobody cares. The harsh truth? Your prospects wake up thinking about their problems, not your solutions. When they open their inbox to 157 unread messages, they’re looking for reasons to delete…
