A 6-person cybersecurity startup booked 47 sales calls from cold email in 90 days, starting from zero meetings.
A six-person cybersecurity startup had been told cold email no longer worked. Their founder was sending 20 manual emails a day to security ops leads with a 2 percent open rate. Domains were getting flagged. The few replies they got came in days later and got lost in Gmail.
We rebuilt the engine from scratch. Twelve new sending domains, three mailboxes per domain, a four-week warm-up cycle, and sequences written around the specific compliance pressure their buyers were under. After ninety days, the campaigns were sending 4,800 emails a week with a 7.8 percent reply rate. The founder stopped sending manual emails. The team booked 47 sales calls and closed three deals before the quarter ended.
