Spreadsheet columns before you browse — step 2 photo from Cold Email That Gets Replies

Free make money online tip: Spreadsheet columns before you browse (step 2 of 13 from "Cold Email That Gets Replies").

Make 20 empty rows. Columns: Name, Role, Company, Company URL, Their page I actually read, Specific observation (8–15 words), Email, Send date, Batch (1/2/3), Follow-up date, Reply (yes/no/out-of-office), Next action. Do not add a 'personality' column. Do not color-code yet.

You will fill observation before email address. If the observation is 'great company' you have not researched them. The observation should be falsifiable: 'pricing page has no annual toggle' or 'blog last posted 11 months ago' or 'careers page hiring a content manager — they are buying this work internally already, skip.'

You'll need

  • Offer sentence written
  • Proof asset exists
  • 20-row sheet with observation column
