They walk through simple habits and tactics that help you reply faster, cut friction, keep momentum high, and ultimately get more prospects to show up to the calls they requested.

Key topics discussed in this episode: Why replying quickly to positive responses matters and how tools or an assistant can help you stay on top of alerts How to remove friction by steering directly to a call and offering simple scheduling paths The importance of keeping the conversation on the same channel at first, then layering in multi-channel follow up Treating positive replies like VIP leads and following up confidently across LinkedIn, email, and phone An aggressive but effective tactic: booking the call for the prospect, then letting them adjust as needed Reducing no-shows with a quick, friendly check-in message a few minutes into the scheduled call How to handle repeat no-shows while keeping the door open for future conversations This discussion highlights that warm leads are usually busy, not disinterested.

    #413 - Fix any campaign with 2 simple changes

    📫 Don't miss the best cold outreach tips and cold email tactics, join the newsletter - https://quickmail.com/newsletter   In this episode, Jack and Jeremy tackle a simple but powerful question. If you could only pull two levers to improve a cold outreach campaign, which ones would produce the biggest lift in both reply rate and ROI? What starts as a theoretical exercise turns into a deep breakdown of strategy, list quality, offer strength, and how to diagnose a campaign that is getting crickets. The hosts compare notes, challenge each other, and map out which levers matter most depending on the situation. Key topics discussed in this episode: Why "strategy" often beats tactical tweaks when a campaign is fundamentally misaligned How list quality acts as the real driver of reply rates and buying appetite What makes an offer compelling enough to cut through the noise How the right vertical vs the right signal can completely change outcomes When to rethink segmentation instead of sending more volume The role of sharper pain points in grabbing attention Why channel selection should depend on where prospects are actually active This teardown shows that most cold outreach problems aren't solved by adding personalization or tweaking copy. They're solved by choosing the right people, presenting the right offer, and building the right strategy from the start.

    #410 - Stop obsessing about your subject lines. Here's why.

    📫  Don't miss the best cold outreach tips, join the newsletter - https://quickmail.com/newsletter About this episode (#410): In this episode, Jack and Jeremy tear down a cold email that opens with the line "No one likes a cold email." They explore why this approach fails to stand out and how small details in your inbox preview can make or break your open rates. The conversation turns into a masterclass on subject lines, preview text, and how the overall "look" of your message shapes trust before anyone even clicks open. Key topics discussed in this episode: - Why preview text is just as critical as your subject line for open rates - How to engineer your preview text to create curiosity - The hidden role of sender name and domain credibility in trust - Why vague or buried offers instantly kill engagement - How QuickMail's dynamic "sender name mimic" feature can lift reply rates - The difference between good execution and the right strategy - Why great agencies don't stop at outreach—they make sure clients see ROI This teardown reveals that a high-performing cold email starts long before the message itself. Getting the subject, preview, and sender right sets the stage for every reply that follows.

    #408 - Josh Braun Shares Sales Techniques That Work

    About this episode (#409): In this episode, Jack and Jeremy sit down with sales legend Josh Braun to explore how to start smarter, more effective cold outreach conversations. They break down Josh's "poke the bear" method, a way to uncover hidden pain points without triggering resistance, and share practical tips for making prospects pause, think, and actually want to talk to you. Key topics discussed: Why cold outreach fails when it starts with pitching or convincing How to "poke the bear" by asking questions that expose invisible problems Real-life examples from malls, car washes, and contractor bids that illustrate the method How to use emotional echoing to make people feel truly understood Why it's better to walk away from a bad fit than try to force a sale  How to tailor your message based on job titles and switching risks What Chris Voss taught Josh about silence, trust, and listening for truth The best cold outreach doesn't push, it creates a moment of reflection. Ask the right question, listen well, and let your prospect talk themselves into the next step.
