How many new cold emails did you get this morning?<\/p>\n

If you’re like most people, you probably have dozens, if not hundreds, of cold emails sitting around in your inbox. Unfortunately most of these cold emails aren’t very good, and are a general waste of everyone’s time. You waste time reading them, deleting them, and some are just downright painful to read.<\/p>\n

Until now, there’s been zero purpose for these crummy cold emails, but that’s changing now.<\/p>\n

Finally, there’s a place for all the worst cold emails<\/a>, and that’s Salesfolk’s “Cold Email Hall of Shame<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

\"recycle<\/a><\/p>\n

I created the Hall of Shame\u00a0because:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I’m tired of people tarnishing inside sales and cold email with thoughtless, lazy, poorly crafted emails.<\/li>\n
  2. People keep spamming this garbage because no one calls them out on it.<\/li>\n
  3. Everyone can improve their cold emails by learning what NOT to do.<\/li>\n
  4. I honestly find\u00a0terrible cold emails extremely humorous.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So if you have any terrible cold emails sitting around in your inbox, please send them to shame@salesfolk.com<\/strong>. \u00a0(All submissions will be published anonymously!)<\/p>\n
