Cold outreach myth 👇
“Personalization means adding {{first name}} and {{company}}.”
That’s not personalization.
That’s basic mail merge.
Real personalization is about relevance.
It’s showing the prospect you understand their problem, their context, and why it should matter to them right now.
Buyers don’t respond because you know their job title.
They respond because you speak to a pain they’re already feeling.
Good outreach doesn’t say:
I researched you.
It says:
I understand what you’re dealing with and I can help.
That’s the difference between noise and conversations.
