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.

Here's more about why that happens and how to avoid it. Check out the step by step plan on how to warm up your email address before starting a cold email campaign.
