Why should I be interested in learning about your site? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No one wants to do extra work, especially when there&#8217;s nothing that piques their interest. If you&#8217;re not able to pitch your idea in a professional way to begin with, why would anyone play back-and-forth with you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#d7f0ff\">Be specific and present your offer clearly, with bullet points, examples, and benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mutual\">Make a proposal that benefits them, too<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While this might sound like the obvious thing to do, I&#8217;m still getting emails where people ask for something big and, in return, they will just <em>&#8220;share your article on Twitter&#8221;<\/em>. That indeed sounds like the opportunity of a lifetime \u2014 <em>*not*<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if your email is only about you and the recipient doesn&#8217;t get anything beneficial from this deal, then do not send it. By benefiting the other I don&#8217;t mean instant traffic or money, but it should be at least something that will help them in the long-term. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the possibility to enter a <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/most-profitable-blog-niches\/\">new niche<\/a> and target a new audience or an invitation to work on a project together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just don&#8217;t make your outreach emails all about you. Earn the deals, do not beg for them. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"personalize\">Personalize your message for each company<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Coming with a partnership plan is a type of personalization itself, but you can take a few other aspects into consideration when writing outreach emails:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Do not write <em>one<\/em> message and send it to all the companies on your list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Based on how well you know the person you&#8217;re contacting, your message can change. You can be casual with people you&#8217;ve met or collaborated with before. You can actually mention <em>&#8220;I&#8217;m X, we&#8217;ve met last year at the Y conference, we talked about marketing and pizza&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Using the same message but changing a link and a name <strong>does not count as personalized<\/strong>. E.g. <em>&#8220;I found your post about X and loved it. Very useful tips. Would you consider adding our tool?&#8221;<\/em>, where X is the first article you see when you enter someone&#8217;s blog. It&#8217;s definitely not original.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an example of a standard, generic message:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image blog-img-std\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-opt-id=1391891923  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1221\" height=\"227\" src=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg\" alt=\"Generic outreach emails\" class=\"wp-image-39776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:1221\/h:227\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 1221w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:300\/h:56\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:1024\/h:190\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:768\/h:143\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:50\/h:9\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 50w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:480\/h:89\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 480w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:794\/h:148\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 794w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:1200\/h:223\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:296\/h:55\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 296w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:390\/h:73\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 390w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:270\/h:50\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 270w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:1221\/h:227\/q:mauto\/f:best\/dpr:2\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/generic-message.jpg 2x\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Avoid standard and overused corporate language like <em>&#8220;Hope this email finds you well&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;Looking forward to your reply&#8221;<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#d7f0ff\">Actually, think like this: if there&#8217;s a sentence you wouldn&#8217;t use in a live conversation with that person, then do not use it in your outreach emails either. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"avoid\">Try not to use the general contact form of a company<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not necessarily a total failure, but there&#8217;s a risk your message won&#8217;t ever get to the right person. If the company has a policy in place that doesn&#8217;t accept business proposals, then the support team will close it without asking for a second thought. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have something interesting to say and you&#8217;re contacting the right person via their own email address, they might make an exception for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s even better is to <strong>directly contact someone you know from a company<\/strong>. They will remember your name and will open your email. The chance to get a reply, even a negative one, is higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sending your proposal to a person that&#8217;s part of the department you want to contact also implies that you were motivated enough to <strong>do a minimum of research about the company<\/strong> and you didn&#8217;t just use the first <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/add-a-contact-form-to-wordpress\/\">contact form<\/a> that came in handy for you. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"no-fridays\">Do not send outreach emails on Fridays or weekends<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sending outreach emails on Fridays or during weekends will just decrease your chances to get a reply. No one will be in the mood of reading, let alone answering, business proposals on Fridays. People just want to wrap up their week and finish other important things they had on the agenda. You&#8217;re their <em>least important<\/em> task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of them will simply delete your email, others will keep it in their inbox in case they will give it a look next week, while others will read it but probably not answer because it&#8217;s Friday and no one wants to start a deal on Friday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saturday and Sunday? That&#8217;s out of the discussion. People have personal lives, too. When the next business week begins, your email won&#8217;t be the first thing they will do or check, so it can get lost easily. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"subject\">Write a clear, actionable email subject line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another important aspect that you probably overlook often because you are too focused on the pitch. But the subject of the email is what your recipient sees first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It might convince them to open your email or delete it without checking it, based on how clear and summarized it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Again, do <strong>not<\/strong> be very formal, vague, and corporate-like (e.g. <em>&#8220;partnership request&#8221;<\/em>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Try to make your subject line intriguing and interesting to the recipient. When you say <em>&#8220;check my article&#8221;<\/em>, that&#8217;s not very interesting. Why would I care to check your article? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#d7f0ff\">Instead, using something like <em>&#8220;have an idea to improve your content&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;I have a question about your work&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;feedback on your latest TV sketch&#8221;<\/em> might make the recipient open your email out of curiosity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an example of a subject line that makes you open the email to find out more:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image blog-img-std\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-opt-id=1289394280  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"933\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg\" alt=\"Email subject line for outreach\" class=\"wp-image-39778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:933\/h:100\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 933w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:300\/h:32\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:768\/h:82\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:50\/h:5\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 50w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:480\/h:51\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 480w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:794\/h:85\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 794w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:296\/h:32\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 296w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:390\/h:42\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 390w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:270\/h:29\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 270w, https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:933\/h:100\/q:mauto\/f:best\/dpr:2\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/intriguing-subject-line.jpg 2x\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Our post on <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/best-email-subject-lines\/\">how to write great email subject lines<\/a> provides some good general best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"follow-up\">Follow up, but not more than twice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When someone doesn&#8217;t reply the first time, they might have missed or forgotten about your email. It happens to all of us when we&#8217;re busy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people do reply after you follow up the first time because they remember. Some still do not.
