Subject line: ​<fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy> -- Skye referred me over to you

Hi <fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy>,

Our founder, Skye couldn’t stop talking about <fancy>{{companyName}}<fancy> during our weekly meeting and asked me to reach out… he put so much emphasis that I literally wrote your name on my fridge….

Not sure if you have heard of us, but at Vanguard Prospecting, we regularly work with SaaS and professional service companies to help them automate and scale their outbound sales programs.

I poked around on your LinkedIn to get a sense for who you have on your team right now, and I agree that you could potentially be a good fit for our program. We see that companies of your size, with your team structure, often run into challenges trying to scale without dumping a ton more money into ads that might not work, outsourcing, or adding more sales people.

Would you be open to chat about what you are currently doing to see if there is a fit, and learning about a few lesser known ideas we developed that could potentially help?

If so, just reply to this email and we can set it up.

Subject line: <fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy> ​-- Follow up

Hi <fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy>,

Did you get my last email?

Skye wanted me to check back in with you since we only have 2 more spots left this month.

Just as a refresher, we have a proprietary system of outbound automation that allows you to scale without having to outsource or hire, train, and retain costly, internal sales people.

Would you be interested in this <fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy>? If so, just reply and we can set something up.

Hi <fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy>,

This is my final shot… I reached out earlier to see if you would be open to chatting about how we could potentially help you automate and scale your outbound sales program for <fancy>{{companyName}}<fancy> without having to outsource or hire internally.

We are booked for the rest of the month, but I could slot you guys in for next month.

Any interest, <fancy>{{firstName}}<fancy>?

Just reply here and I can get you set up.

Why did this outreach campaign work?

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.

"Reference" approach

The approach that Skye and the team used here is pretty cool. You start out by mentioning that someone from your company asked you to connect with this lead, this way you capture their interest by showing that you've been talking about them. 

They also did it in a really chill way that doesn't seem like fake flattery, and they backed it up with the next part...

Personalized image

Custom images can really catch people's attention. The strategy that Skye and the Vanguard Prospecting team used with the personalized to-do list worked well!

It ties into the reference they used while also standing out from the crowd.
