TOPIC
Week 2: Mastering cold emails

It’s Week 2 of Inbox to Offer: The 4 email series where I document building an all-in-one PDF guide to get you hired in 3 months or less.

This was a tough week.

Not because I struggled with the guide, but because I was battling a cold.

Came down with something last Wednesday, and I’m still sniffling today.

So I was rotting on my bed for longer than I’d like.

But!… We made progress on the playbook.

Recap of last week

Last week, we kicked off Week 1 with the LinkedIn + Resume revamp sections.

Those parts are pretty much done.

I also introduced videos that will be spread out across the guide:

These videos will be under 5 minutes and serve as mini recaps of each section and provide additional context.

For example, a video under the LinkedIn Revamp section will discuss the most important parts of your profile and why we make certain changes.

Lastly, clicking on a video link will bring you to a page that looks likes this:

Example of a video

You’ll get topic timestamps, and a transcript!

What I worked on this week

This week, I dove into cold emailing.

It’s the next section after LinkedIn + Resumes, and will give you a detailed tutorial on writing actual good emails.

This part is arguably the most important, because all you need is 1 right response to land your next job.

I’m really not kidding when I say that.

A success case like this literally happened to one of my followers 2 weeks ago. You can read about it here.

But long story short, she landed a co-op in just 3 days using my cold email strat.

In the Cold Email section of the playbook, I wrote out the framework you need to do in order to see similar results.

  • Finding people to contact

    • This part will have you create your ideal contact list, and walk you through how you should be finding people to message

  • Strategies for finding emails

    • This part will uncover ways to find people’s emails, even if they’re privately listed on LinkedIn

  • How to write a good email

    • This part will have you follow along as we create a cold email from scratch

Closing notes
