Free make money online tip: Teardown or sample, then a number (step 13 of 13 from "Cold Email That Gets Replies").

If you offered a 15-minute written audit, send 10–12 bullets in a Google Doc, no fluff intro. Last bullet: 'If you want me to draft the three emails, that is a $X project, 5 business days, one revision.' Put the number you already chose in Freelance Writing Launchpad, or $400–800 for a first small job if you have no number — pick one and live with it. Do not say 'what is your budget?' as the first reply to a yes.

You passed when 20 rows have a real observation and a send date, all 20 went out in three batches, day-4 follow-ups went to the silent ones, replies are logged, and at least the process is done — a yes is extra, not the pass mark. Zero replies: rewrite sentence two and the ask, then run another 20 in two weeks. Do not buy a course on 'mindset' in the gap.

You'll need

  • 20 observations
  • 20 sends in 3 batches
  • Day-4 follow-up done
  • Log complete

Pro tip: If they ask for a call before you have sent the free teardown you promised, send the teardown first. A call with no artifact is how 30 minutes disappears.
