Learn the Art of Cold E-mailing by @warikoo (Part 1)
Remember: "If you don't ask, the answer is obviously NO!" So, you gotta ASK for that position you want, the job you want, or the hike you desired.
A good email consists of three things: 1. Subject 2. Headline 3. Body
SUBJECT LINES YOU SHOULD AVOID: • Hey! Looking for a job • Want to pick your brain • Can I have some time of yours? • Love your feedback Literally, everyone is writing this. You don’t want to be like them.
TIPS FOR BETTER SUBJECT: • Think about what can you write that just STANDS OUT. • It can be on the edge of something that you don’t wanna say, can be risky but you should take the risk. • It should be something that generates CURIOSITY (Ultimately they will Open the mail)
EXAMPLES: • You got no idea how I got to know about you • Hey! (That is such a cool surname) • I know you’re busy, so here’s 10 points pitch
SUMMARY: Write a unique subject line that makes them CURIOUS and makes them read your mail.
