🛡️ Why 99% of Cold Emails to CISOs Fail
Most security buys are reactive, not planned. Deals ignite after breaches, audits, or compliance shocks, so generic “just checking in” outreach dies on arrival. Win by building authority in advance, then pouncing when intent and timing signals light up.
Key Takeaways:
🚨 Triggers, Not Timelines: Board-approved spend often follows breaches, audit gaps, or insurer demands. Sales cycles compress when fear is real. Position early, act when the trigger hits.
🎯 Aim With Intent: Swap spray-and-pray for account-based outreach. Use buying signals to choose 10–20 target accounts and tailor messages to their live risks.
🧠 Teach Before You Pitch: Publish technical guides, run webinars, and build case studies so you are the trusted expert when urgency spikes. Buyers cite proof over hype.
🧰 Design for the Moment: Keep a fast-path playbook: executive one-pagers, ROI math, implementation checklists, and security architecture maps ready for “we need this now.”
🎥 Office Hours: My Take on Email That Actually Connects
On David Meltzer’s Office Hours, I break down why email still beats flashier channels when you use it to connect the right buyer with the right value. We also get into how I use AI without losing the human touch, and how I handle failure so momentum never stalls.
Key Takeaways:
📬 Email Over Ego: Skip “look at me” marketing. Use email to reach real decision makers with a clear reason to talk.
🤖 AI, Then Human: Let AI speed research and drafting. Keep the message short, specific, and personal so it feels real.
🎯 Chase Replies, Not Volume: Write five tight lines and ask for a 15-minute call. More responses create more sales and better reps.
💪 Mindset for the Long Game: Expect setbacks. Learn fast, adjust, and keep shipping. Consistency wins.
🎙️ David Meltzer: Turning Audience Into Meetings
We paired targeted cold outreach with a value-first newsletter to convert David’s followers into a steady pipeline. The result: reliable monthly meetings with qualified buyers and a bigger, more engaged list.
Key Takeaways:
🎯 Hybrid Strategy: Blend personalized cold email with a managed newsletter to warm fans and spark replies.
🗓️ Consistent Pipeline: Average about five qualified meetings per month from focused campaigns that respect timing and intent.
🧰 Tight Process: Use automation for follow-ups and clean CRM handoffs so interest becomes scheduled calls.
📈 Audience Lift: Pro list management grows subscribers and engagement, expanding reach while feeding sales.

My Last $.02
Security buyers act on triggers, not timelines. Teach before you pitch, aim with intent, and keep a fast-path packet ready. Chase replies over volume, keep copy human, and use a newsletter plus outbound to warm and convert.
Action today: select 10 target accounts with live signals, tailor one proof point, and send a short note that asks for a quick call.
Until next time, happy emailing!
