Cold DMs made me over $100,000 alone this year. I cold DMed my way into working for startups and venture capital firms with no college degree and no connections. A lot of people were asking me how. That's why I made this guide to share with my friends.
@jordanmykleby Tbh send 1 more DM and then stop. Engage with their work on social media, but don't send anymore DMs. Eventually, they'll probably end up following you or DMing you and apologizing for ignoring you. Most of the time "ignoring" is just a genuine accident and a product of them being overwhelmed by DMs. In my opinion, it's better to wait it out and be patient than spam someone and risk losing a potential relationship.
@justgogrind my best advice for you would be to DM founders on twitter where you have a big following rather than on email that isn’t connected to twitter social proof. When I send DMs, I keep it short and just ask “hey are you up to sponsoring a newsletter”. That’s it, don’t overthink it

How do you make sure it doesn't come off as spammy?
@slev personalized, show that you’ve read their work or done your research. Don’t use AI generator. Read it back to yourself and see if you think it’d sound spammy. If yes, rewrite it until it doesn’t sound spammy

I cold DM'd Jason a while back. He never responded. Wish I had this guide then!
