In "This is why email marketing is NOT working for you", Nicolas Olaya dives into the common mistakes that e-commerce brands make, killing their email marketing efforts.

One major issue? Failing to optimize the above-the-fold section of emails—the part people see without scrolling. Nicolas emphasizes that if your headline, offer, and CTA aren’t clear within three seconds, you’ve lost your audience.

Another overlooked mistake: slow-loading emails due to heavy graphics, which dramatically hurt both conversions and deliverability.

And when it comes to segmentation, Olaya argues that too many brands fail to send relevant, targeted emails, hurting deliverability and engagement metrics.

Nicolas wraps up with advice on improving email deliverability, the most crucial factor in ensuring your beautifully crafted emails even reach your audience.

Key Takeaways:

  • 📲 Above-the-fold optimization: First 3 seconds of an email are critical for hooking your reader and increasing conversions (1:04).

  • 🚫 Slow-loading emails: Compress images and ensure emails load fast, or you risk lower deliverability and higher bounce rates (3:13).

  • 📊 Segmentation saves: Properly segmented email lists not only increase relevance but also improve deliverability (8:10).

  • ✉️ Email deliverability is key: Even the best email designs won’t help if they end up in spam folders. Prioritize deliverability first (12:32).

In this episode of The Sales Whisperer®, I dive into how cold email can still be one of the most powerful tools for reaching decision-makers—if you do it right.

Cold email isn’t dead, but it has changed drastically, especially since mid-2023, when AI and new email restrictions flipped the game. I’ve had to adjust my entire approach to cold outreach, from using AI to generate 1,000 different variations of an email to sending as few as 10 emails per inbox per day.

One thing’s clear: cold email isn’t for amateurs anymore, but it’s a game-changer if you master it.

Key Takeaways:

  • 📉 Google’s crackdown: The acquisition of Google Domains by Squarespace caused bounce rates to jump from 2% to 50% overnight (2:34).

  • 💡 Innovating with AI: Use tools like GPT to create spin text, transforming one email into 1,000 unique versions to avoid spam filters (5:39).

  • 💻 Multiple domains, multiple inboxes: Cold emailing now requires 5+ domains and 40-100 inboxes to ensure emails land in the inbox, not spam (5:07).

  • 🤝 Personal touch works: Cold email works best when it’s personalized and comes from high-level contacts like founders or CMOs (32:14).
