In this episode, Jack and Jeremy break down an especially long and highly personalized cold email that made its way through the noise—though not without some controversy. They explore what worked, what went too far, and how AI-driven outreach can either charm or alarm your prospects. Key topics discussed: - The use of deeply personal references in cold emails—and where it crosses the line. - Why referencing hobbies, spouses, and old clients might not earn you points. - The difference between relevance and overpersonalization in outreach. - How AI-generated emails reveal themselves with subtle formatting cues. - Alternative, clearer messaging strategies that could've made the same email more effective. - The importance of a focused CTA and the power of a “trial as a gift” offer. - Predictions for the future of first-line personalization and AI’s evolving role in cold outreach. Less is often more when it comes to personalization. A simple, relevant message that's respectful of boundaries often beats a complex AI-generated pitch loaded with unnecessary personal trivia.
