For me is mainly done manually. I define my target segment, I create a google doc with the names and then add the emails using Rocketreach. No automations. Based on the profile I reach out in a particular way. Its a slow process but at least you create a personalized message.
But I am in B2B so B2C maybe requires more speed.
What is the best advice for cold email marketing newbie?

If we are talking about start up environment, then Strong Team 100%.
If the hierarchy structure is flexible and "young, then you don't need to be a boss to enjoy work
Would you rather be your own boss or be part of a strong team?

Hype areound an industry will always reach a plateau at a certain time - it's a natural and healthy process. The moment is not the best: High inflation, war, international tensions, risk of recession. Like cryptos, NFTs are showing high correlation with tech stocks, which are down A LOT.
If you invest in NFT's only for the Hype, then like everything else the risk is huge and the moment is...
The #NFT sales are down 92% compared to their peak in September'21. Is the hype over?

Most likely YES. Central bankers has a very hard job to accomplish now. Raising rates to tackle inflation (with a lot of unknown with regards to War, China Lockdown etc) without leading to a recession...
I think the FED could be able to arrange a soft landing somehow because US starts from a better point in terms of growth and demand. For Uk and EU probability of a non-recession is even lower.
Are we headed towards a recession?

Main learning for me is that having positive people around you is very crucial to build a growth/learning environment.
As basically everyone in the founding team of a start up I worked a bit on each department and I realised that usually is not impossible to acquire skills on the journey - even when from the outside they look like very hard skills
Practically, I learnd a lot about Growth and...

Difficult question Druv - As always it is very difficult to answer because it depends from what you are building, the sector and the stage.
First of all I think that comunication is a big barrier even if sometimes we don't recognize it - Both with with users and investors, having a clear valeu proposition is crucial, sometimes it's even more effective than the quality of the product itself in...

Main goal of the month is building a community of like-minded people that can appreciate what I am building. We will launch around mid-summer and feedbacks of people in the field will prove valuable.
We are niche: our only objective is to help content apps with a subscription model - they need a new organic acquisition channel- we will give them what they want!
If you have nay suggestions on...
It's May! What are your goals for the month?

Stay in London until late June working on the launch of my first product, trying to meet people in the sector (I love London in this period of the year) + Back to Italy for remote work and some time with the fam and then a couple of vacation to be defined!
I am planning a big trip for next winter/spring so I have to save some cash! Any suggestion for a great surf spot + excursions (Costa Rica...

I try to stay outside as much as I can and be active. That said, I like working during weekends, I feel no pressure and I am not annoyed by external requests/inputs
Favorite non-work activity on the weekend?

1st I look at product description to see if its relevant for me - 2nd I scroll on comments and 3rd I look at how professional/UX-UI quality the product/website looks like 4th Price!
PH asks for feedback: What helps you the most when considering new products to try?

I still create everything manually on Google Meet or Zoom. It's easy and quickly. Best tip is to decrease the number of unuseful meetings instead of increasing number of tools to schedule ahah!
How do you schedule meeting times?

I think it really depends on the stage and the end user (B2C vs B2B).
Some best practices are useful for both, but the major difference IMO is that big companies can leverage Brand reputation and therefore they can use social media more as an acquisition channel because they can reach a lot of traffic from there. Early stage start ups and SMBs cannot do this, they must rely more on organic...
