@yixotieq  did this really work?  I have sent so many messages, most I think got ignored

Answer

Cold emails with a super personalized video intro worked surprisingly well for us! Especially for high value B2B leads. Felt a bit cringe to record those videos at first, but the response rates don't lie. Just keep 'em short, relevant and not too salesy. Anyone else finding success with personalized video outreach?

This is entertaining to watch the mistakes I've made in marketing are described by others as if they  are reading my mind and reading my past mistakes.
