Why did this outreach campaign work?

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.

Personalization + relevancy = high-performing cold email.

To turn such a cold email into a success, you need to be reaching out to the right people. Therefore, prior to pressing the send button, you ought to qualify your leads and organize your email list accordingly.

Based on all that work, writing cold email copy gets simpler and you're able to deliver a way more powerful message as a result.

Prioritize benefits for your lead.

Networking is a powerful thing. Recommendations are the best-performing tactic anywhere. However, to build a network takes both time and skill.

As a freelancer, if you get pitched by somebody who's already in or was in that business, like Benoit, you relate to that person. Then, instead of talking about your network being the greatest ever, you simply explain what it brings to the table and send a personalized invite to the person.

In other words, Benoit is talking about the privileges of being a member of the network and not the network itself. To conclude, forget about your product features or service benefits. Prioritize what pain points they solve for your leads.

What can we learn from this campaign?

Do your research and personalize emails in a relevant way for your prospect
Don't talk about you, focus on them instead
