Over the next year, Roku predicts that 100% of the streaming audience will see ads. For growth marketers in 2026, CTV will remain an important “safe space” as AI creates widespread disruption in the search and social channels. Plus, easier access to self-serve CTV ad buying tools and targeting options will lead to a surge in locally-targeted streaming campaigns.

Read our guide to find out why growth marketers should make sure CTV is part of their 2026 media mix.

Hey there,

Ever feel like your funnel is packed, but your audience is tuning out across all channels? When brands overuse email, SMS, push notifications, and chat without proper suppression rules, even critical alerts can appear as promotional and be overlooked.

Take a moment to consider how removing duplicates and pacing your messages can help regain attention.

📧 Cold Email Tip of the Day

Show 30 Seconds of Real Research

What This Means: “Love your recent post!” with no specifics is fake personalization. Showing 30 seconds of real research means mentioning one concrete, verifiable detail they can immediately recognize as true.

Why It Works: Specifics build trust. When you reference “the SDR role you just posted yesterday” or “your webinar on (topic) last month,” it proves you didn’t just scrape their name. That small proof of effort makes them more open to hearing what you have to say.

How To Use It This Week: Before emailing, pick one source: company site, LinkedIn, or news. Pull one detail and plug it into your opener: “Saw you’re hiring 5 more AEs, which usually means pipeline becomes a bigger headache.” That’s enough to move you out of the spam bucket and into “might be worth a look.”

Your Funnel Is Drowning in Noise 🔊

Published: December 26, 2025

Buyer attention is collapsing, and marketing fatigue is crushing conversion rates. Brands now shout across email, SMS, push alerts, and chat, and buyers tune out. The piece notes that about 70% of customers tune out brand messages.

Upside: Run messaging like a system, with orchestration, suppression rules, and fatigue scoring. Audit every channel, then cut duplicates and pause promos during service issues. For example, stop marketing nudges when a customer has an open support ticket.

Impact: When every note looks like a promo, customers delete critical alerts. The article says 59% have trashed an important message because it blended in. Teams that govern attention can protect trust and recover the pipeline without more volume.

Cold Email Wins When Your Message Makes Sense 📩

Published: December 19, 2025

Clear messaging is the difference between ignored outreach and real conversations. I see most cold emails fail before the first send. When the intention isn’t clear and the message isn’t specific, trust never has a chance to form, especially at scale.

Upside: Before you scale, audit your outreach for clarity. Write one line that clearly names the recipient’s problem and your angle. Then follow up with a simple yes-or-no question.

Impact: Buyers reward messages that feel considered, not manufactured. Clear follow-ups protect your reputation and keep doors open longer. When done right, outreach stops being noise and becomes a system that supports focus and freedom.

Cold Email Still Wins When You Sweat the Details 📩

Published: November 26, 2025

Cold email can still reach the top, but it now demands precision. I’ve seen most teams fail by neglecting deliverability, targeting, or follow-up discipline. I built Email Outreach Company after using outreach to raise capital and win blue-chip clients, and those fundamentals were non-negotiable.

Upside: Treat outreach as market development and read every reply as field research. Start with a clean sending setup, a narrow list, and a clear problem statement. For example, track positive replies per 1,000 sends, then refine the list weekly.

Impact: Email keeps its power because it survives platform shifts and still reaches nearly everyone. But complexity keeps rising, which means leaders need dashboards and real feedback from the field. The teams that win stay curious, test fast, and scale only what earns trust.

My Last $.02

Attention is a limited resource, and treating messaging as a governed system protects trust and conversion. Suppression rules, fatigue scoring, and pausing promos during support issues can prevent critical messages from being lost.

Sometimes the fastest growth move is to say less, better.

Until next time, happy emailing!
