And to make that happen, it's crucial that you properly plan and set up your cold email campaign in every detail.

How Does Personalization Affect Cold Email Deliverability?
I've already written a few pieces on personalization in cold email. I've given numerous reasons why personalization is a must. Yet, here's another one: deliverability of your cold email campaigns.

Remember how I wrote about why it's a good idea to set up a separate email for outbound? Here's a kind of a follow-up to that topic.
