I still remember the excitement when I received my first Paypal Transfer from a founder whom I reached through an Email. Yes, an Email landed me a client. And within 4 days, the same client gave me a bigger contract. But this did not come easy. When it comes to procrastination, I am on the top. I think a lot and do little, almost close to nil.
I need clients but I won’t do the work and that’s my problem. I will always try to find shortcuts. I have spent countless hours trying out different platforms on the Internet but none of them worked. I have made not a single penny from any of the outreach platforms other than Email. The main problem was the limitations. Literally every platform I tried had limitations on reaching out.
Then I tried out Emailing people. Not randomly anyone. A well targeted audience especially founders and key people in companies. I created a mailing list of 1500 people. And locked-in myself for 7 days. Sent 200 Mails everyday manually. Followed-Up on every single email. And on the sixth day, I landed my first client. And that too it came from a follow-up email.
I have also emailed people to understand the market in several different industries like Graphic Design, Recruitment for Experimentation purposes. Email was drafted and curated by me, not ChatGpt. Sent it on different timelines. It has given me a decent number of positive responses though it was just for testing. Below are some Screenshots of my emails you can go through.

If you need a Verified targeted Mailing list of Founders, Co-founders from companies across the world, you can fill out the Contact form at the end of this post. We will connect you via Email. If you want to try out Cold emailing by yourself, a minimum targeted data of 1000 Email Id’s are required to get any result. The pricing is kept at 100 dollars for 1000 Email ID’s, since we put a lot of effort into finding, verifying and creating the Targeted list.
Email is the oldest form of communication and it’s still one of the most used worldwide platforms. Yet, we try to find clients on another platform every time. I check my emails daily and like me every employee who is working in a company uses an Email as a form of communication. It can be a founder, HR or even an intern. These people check their Emails Daily.
On other platforms it’s not easy to message someone. Like on Linkedin, people have to accept your connection request first. There’s a limitation on connection requests required to be sent. On Email, though there is no limitation but you have to spread your emails across different email Id’s. And you can get the required results. In a single day you can send even 500 emails.
So, for whom does this work for? It can work for B2B Clients. If you are a freelancer or looking to pitch your product to companies Cold Emailing can work. Any product/service that can provide you worthy revenue from few clients then cold Emailing is for you. It can work for people who need projects like Graphic Designing, Web Development, SAAS etc.
So even if you get a single client through this, understand that one long term contract will pay you enough to cover all the costs. Then it can be clients from the US or any other part of the world, unless you try it by yourself you will just never know the potential of your service/product.
