Gary Vee doesn’t just know marketing—he defines it. In this must-watch Salesforge video, his unconventional cold email strategies for 2025 are broken down step-by-step. From creating email subject lines that demand attention to avoiding outdated tactics like “Quick Question,” Gary’s advice offers a game-changing perspective from the prospect’s point of view.

The highlights? Forget fluff. Gary emphasizes subject lines that actually describe the email’s purpose (like "Market Research") and stresses the importance of the first sentence, which doubles as the email preview text. He’s also adamant about ditching generic templates and instead writing hyper-personalized emails—or using AI to generate them. The final cherry on top? A soft, specific call-to-action (CTA) that removes barriers for your recipient.

If you want to stop blending in and start converting with your cold emails, this video is pure gold.

Key Takeaways:

  • ✉️ Subject lines win or lose: Stop using vague headers like “Quick Question.” Clear and specific titles (e.g., “Market Research”) earn more opens.

  • 📜 First sentence = preview text: Craft the opening line carefully—it appears as the preview text and sets the tone for the entire email.

  • 🤖 Personalization beats templates: Avoid templated emails with minor tweaks. Use AI tools like Salesforge to write fully personalized messages.

  • 💡 Direct, soft CTAs work: Instead of asking for a call upfront, try a simple CTA like “Reply ‘yes’ for more info.”

If you’ve ever thought about using cold email to grow your business—or wondered how to run a company while traveling the world—this episode is for you.

Cold email changed my life. It’s how I landed Fortune 500 clients, found my first investors, and even sold my startup. During the interview, I broke down my process: the power of AI-driven personalization (no more lazy “Quick Question” subject lines), why you should never send emails from your main domain, and how cold email can be one of the most cost-effective marketing tools out there.

We also talked about my journey—from grinding 7 days a week at my first startup to building a company while traveling through Europe, Hawaii, and beyond. My message is simple: if I can do it, so can you.

Key Takeaways:

  • 📧 Make it personal: AI tools can create emails that feel like you spent 45 minutes researching each recipient.

  • 🛡️ Don’t risk your domain: Always use separate domains for cold emails to avoid spam flags on your main business email.

  • 💰 Cost-effective strategy: Cold email lets you target ideal customers without spending a fortune on ads.

  • 🌍 Work and travel: You don’t have to choose between growing your business and seeing the world—I’m proof of that.

At the heart of it all is a simple truth: success often starts with the courage to hit “send.” Whether you’re building a business, chasing a dream, or just trying to stand out, the right email at the right time can change everything.

It’s your turn—what will you make happen?
