Lead Dispatch #42 - Increase reply rates by up to 15%


Weekly Dispatch

July 18, 2023

Hey Reader,

Millions of cold outreach campaigns have been analyzed to find the best email metrics to book meetings. Here's the low down.

The best cold email length is about 120 words. This word count got the highest average booking rates of millions of campaigns, at around 50%.

But you can go a little over or under - the sweet spot is 75-125 words. This range gets you 5-15% higher reply rates than longer or shorter emails.

It also matters how you write the message. Sending long paragraphs makes it harder for prospects to read your message, even if you've optimized the number of words.

A good way to measure readability is by number of lines. The best click-through rates come from emails with about 20 lines, including line breaks.

Here's an example of a cold email that hasn't been optimized for readability vs. an email with a good format:

Both of these emails have the same number of words. But the second is clearer, easier to read, and more likely to get a response.

Stay concise and break up the text of your emails to ensure your prospects actually respond to them. Good luck!

Now, let's talk about the last two weeks where our platform has tracked new leads that collectively raised more than $7.8bn...up for grabs!
