Frequently asked questions
How does outbound work for a broadly positioned consulting firm?+
It works best when the message narrows to one specific problem the firm solves. Sharper targeting and a concrete client result cut through where broad consulting positioning would otherwise dilute the outreach.
How many cold emails should a B2B company send per month?+
Volume depends on list size, infrastructure and deliverability headroom. The right number is the most you can send while keeping inbox placement and reply quality healthy, not a fixed quota.
What makes a cold email get a reply?+
Relevance first. A tight target list, a specific reason for reaching out, and a short message about the prospect rather than the sender drive replies more than volume.
