Your emails look just like everyone else’s :(

Getting into the inbox is only step one. The real challenge? Getting noticed.

Your prospects’ inboxes are flooded with cold emails that all look the same:

• Plain profile pictures (if any at all)

• Generic subject lines

• Walls of text that blend into the noise

If your email doesn’t grab attention instantly, it’s ignored - even if your message is great.

Let’s go through our tried & tested tips on how to get noticed!

How to stand out in the inbox

1. Make your sender profile memorable

The first thing prospects see isn’t your subject line - it’s your name and profile picture.

2. Personalize beyond first name

Every prospect knows when they’re reading a template. Use enrichment data and contextual personalization (like role, company, or LinkedIn activity) to show that your email isn’t just another spray-and-pray attempt.

3. Keep subject lines clean and intriguing

Avoid gimmicks, ALL CAPS, or clickbait. Instead, use curiosity or relevance: “Quick idea for your Q4 hiring push” will beat “Exclusive offer!!!” every time.

4. Format for readability

Break up text into short, skimmable lines. Make it easy for a busy exec to scan your email and understand the value in seconds.

5. Lead with relevance, not a pitch

The first 2–3 lines decide if someone keeps reading. Start with relevance (why you’re reaching out now), not a sales pitch.

Inbox placement gets you seen. But standing out is what gets you read.
