Frequently asked questions
Why do SEO agencies add outbound to their own marketing?+
Because inbound alone is slow and unpredictable for their own funnel. Outbound gives an SEO agency a proactive channel to fill pipeline while their organic efforts mature, smoothing the feast or famine cycle.
How many cold emails should a B2B company send per month?+
Volume depends on list size, infrastructure and deliverability headroom. The right number is the most you can send while keeping inbox placement and reply quality healthy, not a fixed quota.
What makes a cold email get a reply?+
Relevance first. A tight target list, a specific reason for reaching out, and a short message about the prospect rather than the sender drive replies more than volume.
