#3. When the coupon code trick doesn’t work …
Email marketing works, but sending monotonous, salesy crap over and over again won’t do any good.
And, there are multiple drawbacks to sending the same promotional emails over and over again:
- Gmail can push your email either to the ‘spam’ folder or to the ‘promotional’ tab.
- Your recipients might ignore all your emails as they might consider them just promotional emails.
- Gmail can even ban your email address.
Instead, you should try to understand the audience and create content that is engaging and useful to them.

#7. When you write a cold email …
Writing a cold email is the same as writing your bio on an online dating platform. You need wit and a clear purpose for sending your email.
While writing a cold email, you should consider a few questions, like:
- Is the email free from errors?
- Is it appropriately personalized?
- Is the main topic covered succinctly?
And what not?
This email meme perfectly illustrates this scenario: You think and think and think, and then craft the perfect text to send it to your crush. You hit the send button and wait with bated breath for a reply.
Then comes the ‘ping’ — the sound you’ve been waiting for!
All marketers face the same scenario. They spend a lot of time and resources crafting the perfect cold email, and seeing a response in the inbox just hits differently.
Trust me, it’s no less than the climax of an action-packed movie.

But you know what’s worse: some really good or important emails get lost in the labyrinth of spam emails.

But there’s no Undo button — that ship has sailed.
