The lessons

In order. Each one builds on the last. About three minutes each.

  1. What Buzz does for youYou say who. Buzz finds them, writes to them, and brings the replies back.3 minStart
  2. Why most sales emails never get readBad data, blasts, spam filters and copy that could have gone to anyone.3 minOpen
  3. Why Buzz starts slow and builds upA new sending address earns trust first, so your emails land in the inbox, not in spam.3 minOpen
  4. Why Buzz emails from its own address, not your main oneYour everyday email stays safe no matter what happens to the outreach.3 minOpen
  5. Why Buzz sends a few a day, like a person wouldA few a day, a little more each day. Steady wins, and it keeps you out of spam.3 minOpen
  6. When someone says no, Buzz stops for goodEvery email has a way out. If a person opts out or an address is dead, Buzz never emails them again.3 minOpen
  7. Why the right person beats a bigger listTen owners who fit beat five hundred names that might.3 minOpen
  8. The four emails, and what each one is forA reason, a new angle, proof, a polite close. Short, in your voice, one question at most.4 minOpen
  9. Your Hive: how Buzz learns your businessTeach it once. Every search and every email uses it from then on.3 minOpen
  10. What a contact is, what a credit is, and what is freeA contact is a person you unlock. A credit is work Buzz does. Searching is free.2 minOpen
  11. Your first day: from sign-up to your first ten peopleTwenty minutes. No setup. Here is exactly what happens.4 minOpen

Cold email mastery

The craft behind the lessons: delivery, sending, writing. Read any one on its own. Where Buzz already does the thing, the guide says so.

DeliverabilityLand in the inbox, every time.

  1. Why most cold email never gets readIt is rarely the words. It is where the email landed.2 minOpen
  2. The complete deliverability checklistTwelve things that decide inbox or spam. Tick them once, check them monthly.3 minOpen
  3. The four records, explained for humansSPF, DKIM, DMARC and MX. What each one protects, in one line each.3 minOpen
  4. Why the strict policy is the right defaultTell inbox providers to reject anything that is not really you.2 minOpen
  5. Warming up: what it is and why you cannot skip itA new address earns trust by behaving normally before it does any work.3 minOpen
  6. Your address versus your domain: two reputationsOne belongs to the pipe. One belongs to you. Only one of them is worth protecting.2 minOpen
  7. The monthly self-auditTen minutes on the first of the month keeps the rest of the month clean.2 minOpen

SendingAddresses, domains and pace.

  1. The subdomain strategy, and why Buzz uses itOne clean sending domain, a few subdomains, a few addresses each. Your main domain never touches outreach.3 minOpen
  2. Sending limits and how many addresses you needA simple rule of thumb, no spreadsheet required.2 minOpen
  3. Why outreach lives on a separate addressYour main email is where invoices and customers live. Keep it out of this.2 minOpen
  4. Aged domains versus new onesOld is not the same as trusted. History matters more than age.2 minOpen
  5. Generic versus branded sending domainsLook like yourself. Random words look like spam because they usually are.2 minOpen
  6. How to recover a burned domain, and when to let it goSometimes it heals. Often it is cheaper to retire it.3 minOpen
  7. Scaling from 100 to 1,000 a day without breaking anythingMore addresses, more domains, same pace per address. Never faster per address.3 minOpen
  8. Unique sender names on every addressTen addresses called "Mike" on one domain is a pattern. Patterns get caught.2 minOpen

WritingSound like a person, not a campaign.

  1. How Buzz writes, and why it worksShort, plain, one true thing, one small question. Every rule here is checked before you approve.4 minOpen
  2. How filters spot templated email, and how to write like a personA thousand identical emails are easy to spot. So are the tells of machine writing.3 minOpen
  3. Ten mistakes that sink campaignsEvery one of these is common. Every one is avoidable.3 minOpen
  4. Spintax, and why Buzz writes real variation insteadSwapping "Hi" for "Hello" fools nobody. Different reasons do.2 minOpen
