Hey there,
This one’s all about turning smart outreach into real outcomes.
First, how a “cringey” cold email took Mateo Price ’21 from a campus startup to Chief Strategy Officer at MrBeast, and why their wildest ideas start with data, not vibes. Then my Office Hours chat on why email still beats ego when you run it with discipline. We’ll wrap with a solar win: how we helped Pvilion turn 1–2 meetings a month into 250+ qualified conversations.

🎯 From Cold Email to MrBeast: Mateo Price’s Data-Driven Leap

Northwestern alum Mateo Price ’21 went from a “cringey” cold email to building an analytics startup for creators -- then parlayed it into Chief Strategy Officer at MrBeast. His thesis: treat creators like companies, and treat ideas like experiments. Price told students at The Garage that focus beats “nice to have,” and the wildest videos start with numbers, not vibes.
Key Takeaways:
✉️ Cold email works… if it’s specific: 1 “yes” from 10 targeted outreaches (Jesser) launched his first client and validated the niche.
📊 Data first, then creativity: MrBeast ideation starts by scraping ~800M videos for outliers, then pressure-testing concepts with a creative team.
🎯 Focus over “nice to have”: Price killed distractions (courses, software) and tripled down on what clients truly needed—leading to an AMA acquisition.
🔁 Plan loosely, execute tightly: Forget rigid 5-year maps; keep moving toward interesting, rewarding work and iterate fast.
Product Highlight:
We send over 2 million cold emails every month through Instantly.ai — it’s the backbone of our outbound engine. If you’re starting your cold email journey, this is hands down the easiest and most powerful tool to use.
🎙️ Inbox Over Hype: My Office Hours Chat on Why Email Still Wins

I joined David Meltzer on Office Hours to make the simple case: email isn’t sexy -- but it moves revenue when you use it with discipline. In a world obsessed with feeds and fame, the fastest path to a real conversation with a decision-maker is still a well-timed, well-targeted email. AI helps, but only if it makes you more human, not lazier.
Key Takeaways:
✉️ Email > Ego: Marketing that “looks big” isn’t the same as marketing that books meetings. Email connects A→B reliably.
🤖 AI With Restraint: Use AI to research, draft variants, and triage—not to churn generic blasts. If it reads robotic, it loses.
🧱 Discipline Beats Hacks: Protect deliverability, target tightly, personalize with specifics, and sequence 3–5 steps. Small lifts compound.
💪 Entrepreneur Mindset: Expect failures, learn fast, keep going. Commitment + iteration > any single tactic.
🔆 How EOC Powered Pvilion’s Pipeline: 250+ Meetings, Predictable Growth

Key Takeaways:
🎯 Pre-Qualified Outreach: Tight ICPs and message fit meant prospects replied with intent, not curiosity.
