Hey there,

Ever notice how AI in email feels magical, right up until it breaks because the data is messy? Better results often come from treating AI like operations, with clean CRM fields, consent, modular email blocks, and human approvals where it matters.

Take a moment to see why a simple system can beat “press button, get copy” every time.

📧 Cold Email Tip of the Day

Alternate “Give” and “Ask” Emails in Your Sequence

What This Means: Many sequences turn into “ask, ask, ask” in every touch. Alternating “give” and “ask” means designing some emails whose main job is to deliver a small piece of value (insight, template, checklist). Other emails can then make the request for a call or reply.

Why It Works: Many people get tired of being sold to, but they stay open to being helped. When every other email shares something useful that stands on its own, you build goodwill and credibility. Then, when you do ask for time, it can feel earned instead of pushy.

How To Use It This Week: Review your main sequence and label each email “give” or “ask.” If you see a wall of “ask,” rewrite at least every second touch to share something practical: a short script, a three-bullet checklist, or one sourced data point that helps them think differently.

AI Email Gets Better When You Treat It Like Ops 🧰

Published: January 21, 2026

AI is showing up across email workflows now, but this piece makes a simple point: results come from governance, clean CRM data, consent, and measurement, not “press button, get copy.” In other words, treat AI like part of your process, not just a content machine.

Upside: Build modular email blocks and a library of intros, bodies, CTAs, and proof points. Then add human approval steps, especially when pricing, compliance, or regulated industries are involved.

Impact: Strong prompts use CRM fields and clear goals (lifecycle stage, segment, CTA, even field names). Add guardrails with a two-step QA for clarity and compliance. Then test methodically, one variable at a time, to learn whether AI is improving outcomes or just speeding production.

Cold Email’s New Reality, Build the Machine ⚙️

Published: January 14, 2025

Deliverability has gotten stricter. Many teams find they need to keep volume low per inbox to stay healthy. At my agency, we scale by spreading volume across a large number of inboxes.

Upside: Treat outreach like a series of small gains, not a magic script. Start by tightening your ICP. Then tailor one clear problem and one clear outcome. If it’s a podcast pitch, filter for shows with real audiences and lead with a specific, obvious fit.

Impact: Providers keep raising the bar, and spray-and-pray keeps losing. Teams that invest in list quality, copy discipline, and sending systems earn attention. Everyone else can train spam filters and damage domains over time.

Stop Chasing Likes, Start Booking Calls 📩

Published: January 5, 2026

Cold email still works, but only if you treat it like a craft. It can outperform social media for direct one-to-one reach. But the playbook has changed fast, and inconsistent sending often gets filtered.

Upside: I use outreach to test markets and offer fast. I start with a tight target list, write one clear problem, and make one simple ask. Then I run a small batch and adjust based on the replies.

Impact: Deliverability is the bottleneck, not clever copy. Sending from your main domain can increase the risk to your main domain’s reputation. The winners build clean infrastructure and respect the inbox every time.
