#1💡
Why does this cold email / job pitch work? 🎯
Clear and concise. Easily read on mobile.
Memorable proposition and value add to recipient.
Signals credibility with other job offers and “take it or leave it” mentality (aka I don’t need this job but I want it).
Fun to read (matching the style of the recipient).
Shoot your shot.

I LOVE this statement — “don’t self-reject.”
Go for it and let the market decide. It’s the only way to find the answer.
Do not live in a “shoulda, coulda, woulda” world. That is a life of regret. ❌
#3💡
Do not let the iron wall of fear stop you.
View critical feedback as a gift. How else you will improve?
Success comes through iteration: invent, launch, reinvent, relaunch, iterate, reiterate, start over, rinse and repeat, again and again. 🔁
