What "rules" do you stick to when you do cold emailing/outreaching?

I believe many companies or individuals get first leads when reaching out to someone. What techniques or tools did you use? Feel free to share your experience. 👇

I'm focusing on personalization (subject line, mentioning something about their business, etc), the email itself must be super-short (judging from myself, I don't read long email and I guess other people don't either).
