Have you been successful with COLD emails and DMs?

Question

Thought running cold emails and DMs thru X (Twitter) and LinkedIn lately.

But I fear the possibility of people flagging me for SPAM.

Do you have tips on approaching people with cold emails and DMs without risking bans or spam reports?

Additionally, how can we ensure better response rates?

Thanks!

@marc_bovenzi not if you have a proper setup. 
With new rules, you need to use multiple inboxes with lower email volume per inbox, but warming up inbox is still relevant

You need to work on proper targeting and messaging. That is the key to not be reported as spam. Using a warmup tool like Warmup Inbox can also help.

@fabian_maume Google banned the use of warmup tools recently. Google will know if you're using one.

Marc Bovenzi · Answer

@fabian_maume It's not new rules -- Google explicitly said it's against their terms of service. Many companies have had to shut down it's warmup already because Google is cracking down. https://woodpecker.co/blog/warm-...

You must focus on developing effective messaging and targeting. That's the secret to avoiding spam reports.
