This is very helpful information. Trying to find emails without spending a fortune each month is definitely challenging. This process is ideal for those, like myself, that are getting started.
@@ChrisPieta you get a response and they decide to give you 10 minutes to sell yourself, how'd you do that, what's next? How do you respond? Do you talk package, pricing or meet ups?
Great tips! Two suggestions: when you go to the potential client's site, capture their URL and copy it intoyour. That way you don't have to remember it and if you want to open their website, jsut click on the url Second: Create filter so you can sort your information. Create your sheet w/ all the column names (first name, company etc), then enter the data. Next, go to Data > Filter >Create Filter. You'll then be able to sort your information easily
Hey Chris if you ever run out of ideas I would like to know a little bit more about how do you approach the mood board to the client as in like inspo, guidance, what you can achieve etc ? Thanks! You do a great job at explaining, very concise and full of value Keep it up Chris!
Hi Tellem, thanks for watching! I send them throughout the day and haven't really found a best time. When do you typically check email? Put yourself in their shoes
Hi Chris, I recently got your Client Acquisition" pack and I must say it has saved me a lot of time and effort, so thank you from the bottom of my heart! There is one thing that I have been wanting to ask you, which is where do you stand on the idea of sending a few attached examples of your relevant work along with the cold email outreach? If I had to guess, I would say that you believe in your homepage being like a portfolio already, but I do not know what is your total experience with this particular outreach method.
I have tried this method but unfortunately until now got no results. 90 e-mails, 2 answers without any conclusion. Finding e-mails is work by itself, and I have someone doing that job for me. But when one gets no result whatsoever, it is hard to keep on going. Quite demotivating.
Yes this is only a small piece of the puzzle. You need to have the right email copy, the right hook, credibility, personalization, ask, etc. Then your website has to be optimized for cold email, case studies, portfolio, niche, etc. There are dozens of little things that add up to make this successful. I teach all this inside Creative Biz Launch, here's the waitlist: www.creativebizlaunch.com/cbl-interest
@@ChrisPieta Thank you for your answer, Chris. Email copy: I have actually tried one of your templates, and tweaked it. Website: Yes, you are right, I should add some more things. Case study is unfortunately not possible at the moment. I am happy with my portfolio, although I still have a lot to do. But motivation is hard to keep nonetheless.

Can i take a guess that your 9-5 role was in sales or marketing? you have such a strategic sales mind. your channel is incredibly valuable and shows photographers to grow STRATEGICALLY...something that these other photography channels lack.
Hey Victoria, thanks for the kinds words! Believe it or not, I majored in chemistry in college and I worked in regulatory. I learned sales and marketing from reading a lot of books, doing a lot of outreach/calls, and from youtube university :)
@@ChrisPieta i love your stratgy for product photography. You have any suggestions with portraits engagements events and other genres that are people focused.
