Don't have any mistakes in them! I get so many that misspell my name or leave it blank 😆

Keep it simple :)
@relja_denic that's a good point, what is a simple outreach for you?
- Mandatory first 2-3 lines of personalization
- Use an intriguing but relevant subject line
- try to keep it under 100 words
- use bullet points often
@persuasionkid agree with every one of them, thanks!
Keep it under 100 characters and ask yourself honestly, if you would personally answer it
@evgeny_kotelevskiy great advice!

Great question! Here are a few tips I've collected:
1. Tailor your email to the recipient as much as possible, as generic emails are often ignored.
2. The subject line should be clear, concise, and relevant to the purpose of your email.
3. Keep the body of your email concise and focused on the purpose of your outreach. Explain why you're reaching out and what you hope to achieve. Be specific and avoid vague or overly long emails. This also shows that you respect their time.
4. Find inspiration in the email you end up looking at yourself. In the sea of emails, they got your attention, so investigate why.
5. I feel it should go without saying, but a lot of emails show up in my inbox with typos, and it creates a bad first impression. So correct grammar and spelling are important. Grammarly is a great help here.
6. Clearly state what action you want the recipient to take. Don't leave them guessing!
7. Ensure that your contact information is easy to find, for example by adding it to your email signature.
