FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS
Start your email with research personalization to stand out in the inbox (vs generic greeting).
Quote the prospect/company directly by researching where the company is investing its money (e.g. in job postings, funding announcements).
Use a more humanized approach when prospecting. Sharing something you both have in common in the P.S. is a great place to add a human touch.
Reach out to your prospect immediately after they engage with your content - no need to wait for the next sequence step.
