Successful founders do these things: 1. No traffic ➟ Do SEO 2. Stuck traffic ➟ Improve landing page 3. No reach ➟ Post valuable content 4. No replies ➟ Ask questions 5. No leads ➟ Run giveaways 6. No sales ➟ Fix the offer 7. High churn ➟ Offer discounts 8. Static ➟ 2x on what's working 9. Fail ➟ Start again Simple, cruel, but true...

@abukawserahamed 78+ replies is solid. curious what your bounce rate looked like? i've found the gap between a good campaign and a great one usually comes down to list quality. clean verified data before the first email goes out changes everything.

Cold email works. This campaign: → 78+ replies → 27 leads → 14 days No magic. Just proper setup. Want it? DM me. #ColdEmail #SaaS #ColdEmailCampaign #Outbound

@donkoww7 been there. ran a 2k email campaign last year with "verified" data from a paid provider. 312 bounced. 15.6% bounce rate. domain reputation tanked and took 3 weeks to recover. the list is the campaign. people spend hours on copy and subject lines but skip the most important step.

Someone said their email marketing “stopped working.” Opens ↓ Clicks ↓ Sales ↓ They blamed the offer. It wasn’t that. Their bounce rate was killing deliverability. We cleaned the list… Everything came back. Same emails. Different results. Checklist in bio.

@nickblock20 this is the move. the one thing i'd add is that none of this works if 15% of your emails are bouncing and never reaching inboxes in the first place. verified data first, then intent signals, then warm dials. that order matters more than people realize.

Your outbound calling team should never cold dial a list Every call should go to someone who opened an email, clicked a link, or visited your site in the last 48 hours We call these warm dials. The connect rate is 3 to 5x higher than cold

@IAmAaronWill the follow-up bot is the one most people sleep on. tracked mine for 2 months and 44% of closed deals came from the 3rd or 4th touchpoint. most founders send one email and move on. automating that alone added ~30% to monthly revenue.

10 AI agents I run for my own solo business: 1. Lead scorer 2. Follow-up bot 3. Analytics digest 4. Audit summariser 5. Client onboarding 6. Newsletter builder 7. Reactivation agent 8. Proposal generator 9. Opportunity monitor 10. Weekly content pipeline No team needed.

stopped running google ads for my saas 4 months ago. switched everything to cold outbound. reason: $2.40 CPC, 2% conversion on landing page. that's $120 per signup. my LTV is $200. with outbound i spend maybe $30 per qualified lead and the conversations are 10x better because i'm reaching people who actually have the problem. google ads work if your ACV is high enough. for most bootstrapped saas under $50/mo it's a money pit.

What’s your best strategy to make Google Ads work for a SaaS?

before i built findmemail.io i was buying "verified" email lists from 3 different providers ran a 2,000 email campaign. 312 bounced. that's a 15.6% bounce rate. my domain reputation tanked. took 3 weeks to recover. the worst part? i was paying $150/month for data that was destroying my sender score. now i verify every single email before it goes out. bounce rate stays under 2%. if you're doing cold outbound, the list is the campaign. bad data = bad results, no matter how good your copy is.

Most outbound fails before the first email is sent. We learned this the hard way at ArakYet. Data was already stale by the time it hit a sequence. So we flipped the process: 1. Start with signals, not lists
→ If nothing recent is happening, we don’t reach out 2. Qualify hard upfront
→ Most leads get dropped here 3. Segment by problem
→ Not titles or firmographics 4. Run outreach for 5 days
→ Email + LinkedIn, tight cycles 5. Track replies only
→ Cut fast if signal doesn’t hold 6. SDR picks up only warm threads Result:
→ ~40% smaller lists
→ ~15–20 hours/week saved
→ way less wasted spend Better inputs fixed more than better copy ever did. arakyet.com

"better inputs fixed more than better copy ever did" — this is the whole thing stale data is the silent killer most teams don't even measure. 30%+ of contacts change roles in a year. by the time a static list hits a sequence it's already broken curious what the data layer looks like at ArakYet — how are you solving freshness on the contact side?

"scales the problem faster" — this is it i've seen founders spend months building AI agents on top of apollo lists with 20%+ bounce rates the agent keeps optimizing the sequence. the domain quietly gets flagged. the whole thing burns down data quality is the floor everything else sits on. fix that first. then automate

Every B2B founder using AI AGENTS for cold email is still struggling with inconsistent pipeline because ai is being used on the wrong layer writing better emails doesn’t fix: - bad data - weak targeting - poor deliverability it just scales the problem faster what actually works is upstream, most people aren’t even looking there

the math here is underrated most people diagnose cold email failure as a copy problem. it's almost never the copy it's the list. 20%+ bounce rate, outdated roles, generic catch-all addresses going nowhere clean verified data doesn't just improve deliverability — it changes what's even possible with the sequence

Cold email is not dead. Bad targeting is. Send 100 emails to wrong people = 0 replies. Send 20 emails to verified decision-makers = 4+ replies. Quality of data beats volume every time. #ColdEmail #B2BSales #Outbound

distribution most founders spend 80% of their time building and 20% trying to get customers but the market doesn't reward the best product. it rewards the product most people hear about i've seen objectively worse tools crush better ones purely because the founder understood who to reach and how building is the easy part. finding the right 100 customers who will actually pay is the hard part

So many SaaS ideas look good on paper. Very few survive in reality. What’s the missing piece founders ignore?

first revenue for me, but a specific kind a stranger paid. not a friend, not a favor, not someone who knew me just someone who found the product, decided it solved their problem, and paid that's a completely different feeling than a friend paying to be supportive. strangers don't lie to make you feel good

As a founder What was your first “this is real” moment? -first user -first revenue -first feedback -first growth -something else

newly funded SaaS is such a sharp ICP they just closed a round. board wants growth. founder is panicking about pipeline. and they haven't had time to build anything yet so they're wide open to someone who can walk in and set it up for them the timing window is maybe 30-60 days post-announcement before they figure it out or hire someone full time

If you're good at cold email stop selling it as a service → Scrape newly funded SaaS on Crunchbase → Email the founders → Pitch building their outbound system in-house → 3-6 month consultancy → $15K - $30K per client I ran this model for years

"deliverability stacked so every email lands" is the one most people skip they spend weeks on copy and angles then send from a 3-week-old domain to a list scraped from a free tool domain reputation is the ceiling. if you're hitting spam, none of the rest of it matters $620k from a system. copy is maybe 20% of it

Everyone treats cold email like some outdated channel. Meanwhile it pushed $620K IN 45 DAYS FOR US With zero ads, funnels, or brand hype. Most people send “cold emails.” We run a system: - Leads sorted by intent, not random industry buckets - Messaging written for the role, not the company - Deliverability stacked so every email lands - Automated testing running 24/7 - Personalization that doesn’t require manual writing I put everything into this breakdown: Targeting, scripts, angles, deliverability, automation, flows — the whole thing. Comment “EMAIL” + Repost and I’ll DM it. (must follow for DM)

the "free Apollo leads" one kills me ran a test last year. took a list of 500 "verified" leads from a popular free tier tool. bounce rate was 22%. the guys complaining outbound doesn't work are usually the same guys optimizing their copy while their list is rotting bad data is the invisible variable that makes everything else not matter

The funniest part about cold email? you’re competing with CLOWNS. every time someone tells me: “bro outbound is too competitive now” i laugh. you’re not competing against elite operators. you’re competing against: → dudes sending 700-word emails → founders asking for 30 min on email 1 → agencies using free Apollo leads → copy that reads like ChatGPT with a fever → domains warmed for 4 days → angles built from Reddit screenshots → sequencers blasting at 9am on the dot these are not competitors. these are NPCs. if you can: > write clean > target narrow > send volume > follow up fast > keep infra healthy you’re already top 1%. skill > saturation. always has been.

you're right, both are true but here's what the survivorship bias crowd misses: planning for 4 months also has a 99% failure rate, it's just slower and more expensive the 500 who shipped fast and got nothing? most of them learned something. the 500 who planned forever and never shipped? they learned nothing AND spent 4 months on it ship fast doesn't mean ship blind. it means stop waiting for perfect conditions that will never come

@Lets_SaaS @PabloSantanaT ngl the survivorship bias here is doing a lot of heavy lifting. for every "shipped in a weekend and printed money" story there are like 500 people who shipped fast and got nothing. both things can be true.

My little launch platform that I made as a side project made $4k+ in the last 4 days and has over 4000 signed up users 🥹 Time to keep pushing and double down on what's working $10k MRR here we go 🫡

tomba is solid. the difference is whether you're verifying a list you already built vs pulling from a database of contacts that are pre-verified. the second approach cuts the per-send cost way down. that's the model i'm building with findmemail.io — curious what your usual list size looks like

@Lets_SaaS Lol this is exactly why I stopped trusting "growth gurus" who flex reply rates without mentioning deliverability. Your bounce rate is literally eating your sender rep alive. We learned this the hard way and now verify everything through Tomba before sending anything.

how many of you check your bounce rate before blaming your cold email copy? ran an experiment last month. same email. same subject line. same offer. list A: scraped emails, no verification list B: every email verified through findmemail.io list A: 1.1% reply rate, 19% bounce list B: 4.3% reply rate, under 2% bounce your copy was never the problem

@AgnesHilton4 @Techsales4BTC sender rep damage is the actual reason most campaigns die. and by the time you notice it, it's already been happening for weeks

@Techsales4BTC Yeah this is so true. Seen way too many people obsess over subject lines while their sender rep is getting nuked by bad data. Tbh I've been using Tomba for email verification lately and it's wild how much cleaner the bounce rates are.

All you need to do to make $100k + - cold email - cold call - follow up In 6 months you can make $100k+ pa Why don’t more ppl do it
