Cold email may have evolved, but it’s far from dead! We’ve found that personalized, well-researched outreach can still be highly effective, especially when combined with other strategies.

Vikas Potta · Answer

Cold email very well works today and will work even in 2025.

But the rules have changed.

- Mass emails do not work anymore.
- Inbox fatigue is real.
- Intent/ Signal based outreach is a must.

Cold email works well if it is relevant and the message is personalized accordingly. It is true that cold emailing has become more complicated with new restrictions, but it is still effective.

P.S. Opt for Gmail; Outlook's deliverability has dropped significantly.

Absolutely! I think cold emailing can still be powerful if you have a strong subject line and a compelling opening. It’s all about grabbing attention fast.

Cold email + Social selling (LinkedIn) + Webinars + Referral programs

Answer

I find that cold emails can be hit or miss, Sometimes they work wonders, and other times, they just get lost in the inbox. I prefer to mix in different outreach strategies for best results.
