4 Cold Email Templates to Skyrocket Your Conversions

If you’re reading this, client outreach is probably a very big part of your job. Whether you're targeting local businesses, regional brands, or national accounts, it’s the crucial first step to connecting with potential partners and showing them the benefits of advertising with you.

But doing this every day can also be really challenging.

You have to balance your time, your budget, and your creativity. You want to send e-mails that are personalized, engaging, and persuasive, but you also don't want to spend hours crafting each one.

That's why we've put together four e-mail templates for cold outreach to potential clients. These templates are flexible enough to use on a diverse set of prospect profiles, and designed to highlight the incomparable benefits of TV advertising.

Of course, these templates are not meant to be copied and pasted verbatim. You should always tailor them to your specific prospect, your station, and your market. And don't forget to attach a sample spec spot that demonstrates how your station can produce a high-quality ad that meets the client’s needs. (If you need help with that, come say hi.)

Ready to boost your client outreach and watch those leads roll in? Let’s get started:
