Is cold email dead 😵?

The typical cold email response rate is just 1%. Studies show that when salespeople reach out to buyers without being relevant, only about 1 out of every 100 buyers respond.

Even if a salesperson does get to talk to a customer, if they don't have a message that makes sense for that buyer's situation, it's much harder to make the sale. Sales leaders say that even with much training and support, only about 20-25% of their salespeople's interactions with buyers turn into actual sales.

Too many salespeople don't understand about their business, what their buyers do, or what's happening in their market. This makes it hard for them to connect with buyers meaningfully.

This problem isn't just about sending better cold emails. It's about having better conversations with buyers throughout the whole sales process. But when salespeople struggle to connect with buyers, it often starts a bad cycle. In most companies, not enough salespeople are hitting their sales goals. As they fall further behind because buyers aren't responding well, they get desperate and start reaching out to tons of people, hoping that playing the numbers game will help them catch up. But this "spray-and-pray" approach usually makes things worse.
