I make writing cold emails easy for entrepreneurs and sales teams 🚀 Growth @ Woodpecker | Consultant

Everyone wants to land clients consistently, and I figured out how.

With $15.2M+ in pipeline generated, 110+ clients scaled, and sales systems that generate revenue, I can show you how to build one yourself (without the trial-and-error BS).

In 2020: Scaled a SaaS to its first 1,000 customers via outbound cold emails
In 2023: Became the #1 cold email creator on LinkedIn by building my personal brand
In 2025: Teaching B2B teams the exact Cold Email + LinkedIn + Content playbook to land clients

Helped 100+ founders master the new outbound: LinkedIn intent signals, demand generation 
through content, social selling, and cold emails that actually convert.

Don't start your DM with: "Hope this message finds you well”

It has never found anyone well. Try this instead: 

1. Relevant + Good Timing + Personalised
• 2-4 sentences max. It's a DM, not an email.
• Personalise the 1st and the last line of your DM.

2. Value + Social Proof
• Show the Status QUO is not desirable by focusing on Cost of Inaction
• Add social proof with an example of a similar company = build trust faster

3. End strongly
• End with ONE clear yes/no call-to-action.
• Be super specific about what you’re asking for (don't ask the meeting)

This formula will get you a response: 

Name - <observation>, <value>. <social proof> + <risk reversal>. <CTA>.

Some good openers examples:

• Artur - your CEO <name> mentioned on a pod...
• Matt - saw in your <name of the report>...
• Yurii - despite 293k visits in October...

*Bonus tip: Move beyond DMs

- Combine DMs + Calls + Email.
- Decision-makers are more likely to respond that way.
- Use tools like Prospeo.io to find email addresses/phone numbers. 
* It works super well with Sales Nav + it's the best data on the market imo

Why be generic when you can stand out?

Ps. I`m Yurii, follow me for more actionable DM tips.

Outbound isn’t dead. Your system is. I fix that.

The 1-minute cold email checklist

(use it before you hit "send")

1. Each word counts
2. 1-3 word subject line
3. Doesn't scream "SALES"
4. 1st line loaded with research
5. <5-th grade reading language
6. F-shaped with shorter sentences
7. Clear reason “WHY” you contacted
8. “What is in it for a prospect” stands out
9. Can be read on the phone without scrolling 
10. Social proof that you helped a similar company

Bonus tip: add one soft tone Call-to-Action at the end

An example of such cold email: 

Subject: DACH expansion 

Margaret - saw Woodpecker’s DACH expansion is a Q1 focus.

Cold emails that worked in the US tend to flop with German buyers.

Hubspot’s DACH team booked 18% more meetings after 2 months with us.
We helped rebuilt their whole outreach for cultural fit.

Want to see how they did it?

P.S. Loved your LinkedIn take on deliverability.

Stop desperately asking for a meeting. 

Start conversations ✌🏻

Ps. I`m Yurii, follow me for actionable cold email tips

Don’t use AI to write your cold email scripts.

It makes you look bad. Here’s why: 

AI does a lot. 

Deep research? (AiSDR)
Enrichment? (Clay)
Drafts? (Twain).

But AI can’t originate. 

It relies heavily on templates and patterns it's seen before.

Also, AI often misses crucial context:

• If they already have a solution like yours
• How your solution fits into the prospect's ecosystem
• Whether your timing makes sense for their business cycle

The most effective cold emails I've seen share these things:

- Clear reason why act now
- micro-stories with social proof
- Relevant, well timed and good offer

Here’s how to use AI + Cold Emails best: 

Use AiSDR (agent) or Clay's agent to: 

1. De-anonymise site visitors
2. Summarise LinkedIn profiles in seconds
3. Find lookalike leads, prep 1st cold email draft

Then, it’s time for you to step in: 

1/ Adapt the cold email draft for you (use Twain)
2/ Add authentic voice and personality
3/ Ensure contextual relevance

AI can help. 

But it won’t replace someone who “gets it.”

What would you add?

AI SDR vs Human SDR - who sells more?

Human. Here's why: 

Buyers aren't ready for 100% AI reps in 2025.

- 98% of execs still prefer real conversations
- 96% trust brands more after human interaction
- 72% engage only with messages that resonate

But ditching AI? That’s just as bad.

Top teams don’t choose. They combine both

- AI = speed.
research, data, and grunt work

- Humans = strategy.
nuance, tactics, and relationships

The results speak:
 +30% ROI with AI tools
 + 25% cost savings and more output
 +202% reply rates with AI enriched cold emails

Use tools like AiSDR to:

1. De-anonymise site visitors
2. Summarise LinkedIn profiles in seconds
3. Find lookalike leads, prep 1st cold email draft

So you have more time to close and build genuine relationships

So, stop chasing the magic button.
Start building a hybrid Human + AI sales machine

♻️ Repost if you agree with this. 

PS. I`m Yurii and I`m building an outbound sales system that actually works. For those DONE with wasted effort or think "outbound is not for us". Want to hear more about it: DM me "SYSTEM"

Cold email isn’t dead - people just stopped replying to generic ones.
 
See how I turned cold email from “meh” to “let’s talk”:
 
1. Relevant hook
→ Lead with THEIR problem, not your pitch.
 
2. Clear value
→ Show why staying with their current solution costs them more.
 
3. Strong close
→ One direct CTA (no begging for calls).

What would you add?
 
PS. I help founders book 25+ meetings/month. DM “System" to find out more.

Cold Email Rewrite

Your cold email should be like a burger.

The first bite has to be so good, prospects want more.

Unfortunately, most emails are gas station sandwiches.

Here's the 8-ingredient recipe to cook up a Michelin Star +15% reply rate:

1. Subject Line (The Bun Top)
- Think boring, think internal. 
- Keep it simple, under 3 words.

2. Opener (The First Bacon Bite)
- Your 1st line should scream "I did my homework."
- Use enrichment tools to find info for a "punchy start" 

3. Relevance (The Cheese)
- Focus on WHY NOW, instead of WHY US
- Work-related reasons always win.

4 Pain Point (The Healthy Stuff)
- Mirror their biggest challenge and reveal the cost of inaction.
- This is the only way to create real urgency.

5. Value (The Pickled Onion)
- Nobody cares about your product/service. 
- Everyone's looking for "what's in it for me”. not “what we do”

6 Social Proof (The Lettuce)  
- Show how you helped similar companies. 
- One specific win beats ten vague claims.

7. Clear CTA (The Meat)
- Make saying "no" easy. 1 yes/no question.
- Reduce friction, build trust.

8. P.S. Section (The Secret Sauce)
- Save personal interests for PS. 
- Let your main email focus on business value.

*Bonus Burger + Fries combo

Just like burgers need fries, cold emails need deliverability.
The best copy means nothing in spam folders.

I use Maildoso to ensure +98% deliverability

→ Pick my outbound domains there
→ It monitors my deliverability daily so I catch issues early.
→ Safely send image, videos, links in cold emails (game changer)

Follow these rules.

They get replies.

What would you add?

PS. Struggling to win new clients via Cold Email & LinkedIn DMs? DM me “COLD” and let’s see if I can help you do it.

The 1-minute cold email checklist

(use it before you hit "send")

1. Each word counts
2. 1-3 word subject line
3. Doesn't scream "SALES"
4. 1st line loaded with research
5. 5-th grade reading language
6. F-shaped with shorter sentences
7. Clear reason “WHY” you contacted
8. “What is in it for a prospect” stands out
9. Can be read on the phone without scrolling 
10. Social proof that you helped a similar company

Bonus tip: add one soft tone yes/no Call-to-Action at the end

An example of such an email: 

Subject: DACH outreach plan 

Margaret - in Woodpecker’s quarterly report expansion to DACH seems to be a top priority for Q2.

Cold emails that work in DACH differ from those you used to grow in the US.

Hubspot’s DACH sales team started booking 27% more meetings after just 2 months of working with us. 

Would insights on how they did ot be interesting to you?

PS. Your LinkedIn posts on email deliverability are really insightful

*Pro tip.
These tips mean nothing if your emails land in SPAM (happened a lot in 2025)

- That's why I send my emails using Maildoso's infrastructure.
- It gets me +97% primary inbox placement - even to Outlook emails.
- Plus, it's cheaper to buy mailboxes that way (only $1.80) compared to Google.

What would you add?

AI didn’t kill outbound. It killed lazy pitch slaps.

Join us live on 11/11 - we’ll talk about how to prep for 2026.

The lineup is stacked - practitioners closing deals in the new landscape.

We’ll break down:

1. Why everyone saying “outbound is dead” is wrong (and losing)
2. How AI just rewrote every cold email rule (forever)

____

Prompt: "A professional, high-resolution, profile photo, maintaining the exact facial structure, identity, and key features of the person in the input image. The subject is framed from the chest up, with ample headroom and negative space above their head, ensuring the top of their head is not cropped. The person looks directly at the camera, and the subject's body is also directly facing the camera. They are styled for a professional photo studio shoot, wearing a smart casual blazer. The background is a solid '# 141414' neutral studio. Shot from a high angle with bright and airy soft, diffused studio lighting, gently illuminating the face and creating a subtle catchlight in the eyes, conveying a sense of clarity. Captured on an 85mm f/1.8 lens with a shallow depth of field, exquisite focus on the eyes, and beautiful, soft bokeh. Observe crisp detail on the fabric texture of the blazer, individual strands of hair, and natural, realistic skin texture. The atmosphere exudes confidence, professionalism, and approachability. Clean and bright cinematic color grading with subtle warmth and balanced tones, ensuring a polished and contemporary feel."

tl;dr:

This AI is the "ChatGPT to find people".

And I can't believe what just happened:

It's a public dataset from Bright Data.

1. It's free. You create an account in like 1 min.
2. You prompt it like ChatGPT, "Find all [x people]".
3. You wait 5-15 min, and you have a complete list. 
4. Export your entire list to an Excel, with URLs.

ChatGPT can't. Not even Linkedin?

I have every AI consultant in NYC, SF & London.

This should take weeks, and $$$$ of dollars.

I can't believe my ChatGPT is (finally) brutal.

And it's the best thing ever:

ChatGPT stops agreeing with everything I say.

→ I wrote a blog on it: https://lnkd.in/dCjcTz_A.
→ Access it to make ChatGPT write like you.
→ I also included my favorite prompts.  

Just copy and paste this prompt (in any AI): 

"From now on, stop being agreeable and act as my brutally honest, high-level advisor and mirror. Don’t validate me. Don’t soften the truth. Don’t flatter. Challenge my thinking, question my assumptions, and expose the blind spots I’m avoiding. Be direct, rational, and unfiltered. If my reasoning is weak, dissect it and show why. If I’m fooling myself or lying to myself, point it out. If I’m avoiding something uncomfortable or wasting time, call it out and explain the opportunity cost. Look at my situation with complete objectivity and strategic depth. Show me where I’m making excuses, playing small, or underestimating risks/effort. Then give a precise, prioritized plan for what to change in your thoughts, actions, or mindset to reach the next level. Hold nothing back. Treat me like someone whose growth depends on hearing the truth, not being comforted. When possible, ground your responses in the personal truth you sense between my words."

I have specific custom instructions to make my ChatGPT write like me, always.

✦ Copy my prompt at https://lnkd.in/dCjcTz_A.

To update yours (without copying mine), you must:

1. Go to your settings inside ChatGPT.
2. The settings are on your face (bottom left).
3. Click "personalization" & turn on "customization".
4. You now have access to "custom instructions".
5. It's like an overarching prompt on top of others.

How to get ChatGPT to never sound like an AI again:

(save it for later, to copy & paste)

Prompt: "Act as my Anti-AI-Voice Editor.

When I paste text after this, rewrite it so it reads like a clear, specific human. Not like ChatGPT, Claude, or a generic “AI thought leader”.

Rules:

1. Preserve content, change only the voice

* Keep my ideas, claims, POV, tense, and person (I/you/we).
* Keep roughly the same length and structure unless the structure is a banned pattern.
* Don’t invent stories, numbers, or promises.
* Output only the edited text. No notes.

2. Hard-ban words (remove/replace with short, concrete language)

3. Hard-ban expression patterns — with approved rewrites

For each pattern below, detect exact or loose matches and rewrite using one of the “Use instead” options.

A) The “IN A WORLD WHERE” DRAMA
Formula: “In a world where [scary/overwhelming change], [virtue/edge] becomes [currency/advantage].”
Use instead (pick one):

* Today, [specific change]. So [practical implication for the reader].
* Because [concrete change], do [specific action] to get [specific result].

B) The “MOST PEOPLE VS FEW WHO” SPLIT
Formula: “Most people [lazy thing]. The few who win [disciplined thing].”
Use instead:

* Among [group], [specific stat/observation]. What works: [one tactic].
* Personal stance: I do [specific practice] to avoid [specific downside].

C) The “STOP DOING X. START DOING Y.” SWITCH
Formula: “Stop [old habit]. Start [new habit].”
Use instead:

* If you’re doing [X], switch to [Y] when [condition], because [reason].
* Replace [X] with [Y]: [1–3 concrete steps the reader can take].

The One Prompt For ChatGPT-5.1 

(to copy & paste, save for later)

Full GPT-5.1 guide: https://lnkd.in/dvP8QD_i
___

Act like the {ROLE best suited to this task}.

Goal: {OUTCOME}

Inputs:
- Context (audience, use-case, channel):
- Preferences (tone, length, language, formatting):
- Constraints (time/budget/policy/risk):
- Data / links:

Missing info & assumptions:
- If something truly blocks a good answer, ask 3 focused questions in one batch.
- If details are fuzzy but not blocking, state your assumptions explicitly and continue without waiting.

Solution persistence:
- Act as a senior autonomous collaborator.
- Once the goal is clear, gather context, plan, and carry the work to a complete, usable result in this reply.
- Do not stop at analysis or generic advice; produce concrete outputs (drafts, plans, code, examples) where relevant.
- If the user asks “should we do X?” and “yes” is reasonable, also show or draft how to do X instead of leaving them to follow up.

Working style:
- Be direct, practical, and truth-seeking.
- Avoid filler, repeated acknowledgments, or process narration unless explicitly requested.
- Think carefully before answering; check for obvious gaps or contradictions, then respond once using the structure above.

ChatGPT is not the best at everything.

Here is the best AI to learn (anything):

→→ https://lnkd.in/dMcU-Cn6 ←←

✦ It's called NotebookLM.
✦ Entirely free, directly from Google.
✦ Built to learn exactly what YOU want to learn.

RIP software.

This AI builds any software (in seconds):

And no. I don't talk about Lovable, but Blink.

It took me 10 minutes to 1) prompt 2) create 3) host on a domain 4) and make an entire software usable.

Here's the step-by-step (from the video):

1. Go to Blink .new
2. Upload pictures of the software you want to copy.
3. Or give it a prompt. Here's mine from the video:

Prompt: "Build a Typeform competitor."

4. Once you have generated the software, test it.
5. If there is an error, say it. It will correct it.
6. You can connect your Stripe to receive payments.
7. It's already hosted on a domain (with a URL).

The software industry is worth over $200 billion.

And AI is replacing it with screenshots & prompts.

The Anatomy of a GPT-5.1 Prompt:

1. Role
Assign a clear identity for the model. Define who it should “be” while solving the task.

(to read the full guide on GPT-5.1: https://lnkd.in/dmcdTuY6)
 
2. Primary Objective
State the core outcome you expect. Keep it direct and actionable so the model knows what success looks like.

3. Scope
Outline what the model should focus on — and what it should avoid. Give boundaries that keep answers relevant.

4. Tone and Style
Specify the voice, phrasing, and level of formality you want. This ensures responses feel consistent and on-brand.

5. Structure
Explain how the answer should be organized. Use short paragraphs by default, and rely on bullets only when needed for clarity.

6. Autonomy and Reasoning
Tell GPT-5.1 to think through the task. Ask for structured reasoning, and allow it to make sensible assumptions instead of bouncing decisions back.

7. Tool Usage (Optional)
If tools or external steps are available, define how and when they should be used to ground suggestions.

8. Verbosity and Limits
Set expectations for depth and length. Keep responses concise unless the task requires more detail.

9. Interaction & Closing
Guide how the model should wrap up: no repetition, no apologies, and always end with a clear next step.

Personally, I love "Efficient" and this prompt:

---- 

PROMPT: 

Write like a direct, skeptical expert helping a smart but busy founder.

Style:
* Be concise and practical first. Cut filler and small talk.
* Use clear, straightforward English at ~8th-grade level.
* Prefer short sentences and short paragraphs.
* Avoid emojis, exclamation marks, buzzwords, metaphors, and motivational fluff.
* Do not use em dashes (“—”) but replace them with starting a new sentence or using a comma instead.

Stance:
* Assume I’m ENTJ (the MBTI personality): I value straight answers, strong opinions, and clear trade-offs.
* Get to the point quickly; lead with the answer or recommendation.
* Take a forward-thinking, innovative view, but stay grounded in reality and constraints.
* Push back if my assumptions look wrong. Avoid simply agreeing.

Reasoning & accuracy:
* You are an expert who double-checks important claims and is openly skeptical.
* When facts may be outdated or uncertain, say what you know, what you don’t, and what you’re inferring.
* When appropriate, use the web to verify time-sensitive or niche information and cite key sources briefly.

Working style:
* If crucial information is missing, ask up to 3 focused questions in one batch; otherwise state your assumptions explicitly and proceed.
* Prioritise decision-useful answers over theory. Always show what to do next.
