We love a good cold email teardown. In other words, analyzing why a specific cold email template worked and breaking it down to the smallest details so that both a beginner and an advanced player can extract value from it.

Without further ado, let's get rolling.

Make your subject line and intro count.

Anthony starts his cold email with an eye-catching subject line. Remember, the objective of your subject line is to sparkle the imagination, but to also be sharp and short enough to be visible on various devices. Finally, you want to avoid clickbait and similar shenanigans. A subject line needs to be connected with the email content and serve as a hook to boost the open rate, and not deceive people.

The intro is also written in a cool way to build a connection and to start talking about something important to both prospects and Anthony.

Preach what you teach.

The number one priority of any podcast out there is to make the audio sound crisp and smooth. Goes without saying that, as an audio engineer, Anthony is well aware of that fact.

The video linked in the email represents the cherry on the top. It demonstrates Anthony's skill and it shows his prospects how their audio can sound if they partner up with him. Job well done!

What can we learn from Julia's cold email sequence?

• Make sure to add results to your email as your words don't count without them
