### [0:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0bUCu6pZlI) Introduction

Hey everybody, Nick here with something you guys have been wanting me to do for a while. Many of you may not know this, but over on my daily updates channel, I spend about an hour every week answering detailed questions about building AI automation businesses. Everything from cold outreach strategies to finding ideal clients. And today, I've taken some recent valuable questions from those sessions and then just brought them here to the main channel. We'll cover mainly whether cold calling still works in 2025, how to identify your perfect client profile, especially when you're just starting out, as well as a bunch of other questions, all with actionable steps you guys can implement immediately. If you guys are wondering about something specific that doesn't get covered today, I do read and respond to every single comment on my daily updates channel. You guys can find the link right down here in the description. So, let's dive into these questions and get you guys all the answers you've been

### [0:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0bUCu6pZlI&t=38s) Cold calling, cold email or paid ads for acquisition?

looking for. The first question while I eat my beef jerky is from Grant. He says, "I'm launching my SAS soon. Starting off by acquiring customers through cold calling because it requires the least amount of time and money to get some revenue coming in. I like to transition into a more scalable acquisition channel as early as possible. " And he also says, "Do you recommend cold email or paid ads and why? " So, I think this is a great question. I wouldn't actually recommend any sort of cold calling today. So, cold calling. Cold calling, like the pros of cold calling are very few and the cons very, very long nowadays. Didn't used to be that way. This is coming from somebody that used to cold call 50 to 80 businesses per day. I'd either go door knock on them or I'd hook them up to an auto dialer with my business partner at the time. We actually went off Facebook Marketplace, bought this really old janky like old PC tower and then I set up an auto dialer and we use that to do our calls. It was very janky. But anyway, the pros of this wonderful threedimensional thing of cold calling are requires $0 startup cost, right? Like all you really need is a phone. I mean, it's not $0, but it's about as close to $0 as you can get. Then all you need is your voice, basically. You know what the cons are, man? It's they're crazy. The cons, the biggest one that nobody talks about is the fact that it's synchronous. What does synchronous mean? That means that you have to be available at the same time as the person that you're calling. What is the statistical likelihood that that's going to happen right off the get- go? Okay, go, you're eliminating like over 50% of leads. Cuz the cold hard truth is more than 50% of all the leads on the planet are not going to be available by the time that you call them. They're not going to be available. It's either going to be an inconvenient time for them, they're not going to be willing. The point that I'm making is literally the fact that they are not available is going to make more than half of your time. Like if your efficiency started off as 100, right off the bat, you're at like 50%. Man, right off the get- go. We haven't even subtracted the rest of the stuff. So, it's synchronous. Okay. If you contrast this with lead generation methods that I recommend, which for the record are stuff like Loom videos where you customize a Loom video, very similar to a cold call, you just do it on camera instead and then send it to them solving some need that maybe they didn't even know that they had. Ideally, they'd know that they had it. But the benefit there is like you lose none of this because people only really look at it when they have the time to, right? Like if they're looking through their email inbox or DMs on LinkedIn or whatever, they have the time. That's why they're looking through the thing. So, you never have to like knock 50% off right off the bat. Okay. But anyway, so the big con is that it's synchronous. It also is way harder for you to get started when it's synchronous because now you have to schedule like cold calling blocks. Contrast that with like my 0 to1 Loom video approach where you just send them out like when you have a minute. It's like, oh, I got 3 minutes. All right, I can record a quick Loom video. Like, do you know how many little windows of your day there are just talking productivity wise that you can squeeze a couple of videos in? When I was doing, you know, 10 to 20 Upwork apps per day. I mean, like everybody talks about how hard it is and how much time it is in maker school, right? But I didn't even like sense what I was doing to be honest because it was like, you know, I'd be doing some client task and I have like 15 minutes between this stuff for a call. So I' be like, "Oh, great. You know, I have a couple minutes. Let's record two or three Loom videos. " Like, if you think about it that way, you always have time for some sort of asynchronous activity. But because it's synchronous, you don't have the time. So that's number one. The con obviously is, sorry, I have to eat this beef jerky cuz I haven't eaten anything all day. And if I don't eat now, I'm not going to be able to record my video. It's like spam pattern match. So, I don't know about you, I don't pick up my phone anymore. I haven't picked up my phone unless it's like a contact that I know and love in like months probably cuz every time I do, it is invariably some spam or the line is quiet or it's waiting to connect me with some auto dialer or it's some robo thing or it's like Chinese tea scammers or whatever, right? So, I don't know about you, but like my phone is no longer a trusted method of getting in touch with me. Okay, for the most part, people's DM channels like LinkedIn, Twitter, stuff like that, for the most part at this moment in time as of the recording of this video, they are still trusted channels. They're trusted mainline channels that go directly to you. So, when you cold call, you spam pattern match. I guess the point I'm making is you have to be really good at cold calling to make it work. And don't get me wrong, you can be amazing at cold calling and you can make a living with it. You can make, you know, 300, 500, a million dollars a year, but you have to get really good. And that it's still really hard. Why? Because the majority of the day you're talking with people that just don't want your service to be honest, unless you have the most qualified list in the world, for the majority of your day, you're going to be talking to people that don't want your stuff. And it's so much better from like a motivational perspective, productivity perspective, all that stuff. If you just like if you deal with people that like are sort of pre-selected or pre-qualified. This is in small part why I shifted from primarily even like cold email to warm inbound because you know I scaled two agencies you know first agency to 92k a month with cold email and upwork I should say sorry and then 72k okay I mean this is yeah I mean it's not all cold email and I shouldn't have said that I don't know maybe like half of it or something like that realistically but this one was predominantly cold email so I've scaled a couple agencies and one thing that I realized pretty quick is like when you do this the people that get on the call with you they aren't always qualified and so they're not always sort of people that are looking for solutions. So actually a big chunk of the time you spend just on a call on a sale is you convincing people that like you're credible convincing people that you're worth it and stuff like that and honestly I just much prefer like the cadence of a sales call when they come to me because they need something so much easier. It's so much warmer. It's like funner you know so like just from all of these perspectives. I know you're just talking about going from zero to one but man it you know it's synchronous. That's old school stuff, right? Spam pattern matching. You don't want to be associated with spam. Uh you have to be really good. And you know how long it takes to get We're talking years here. And don't get me wrong, it's a great training ground, but it's really hard to get good in the first place to stick around long enough for you to be able to stand out from the spam pattern match. Like if the pro is that it's basically zero dollars and then like, you know, you can technically get started now. The cons are 100 times that. You know what I'd recommend for you instead? Do Loom videos. Okay? Instead of having 50% of people like just fall off right off the bat, you'll get 100%. And then if you do Loom videos, okay, so aka you record a customized high-quality video answering a problem that the customer has or offering some sort of solution, but you make it abundantly clear that you are tailoring your pitch just to them. Customize the hell of it. You scroll through their website. You go on their Facebook. By the way, I saw you had a Yorkshshire Terrier. That's crazy. My uncle Samantha had one. Right. If if you go through all of this stuff, the amount of time it'll take per lead is about the same amount of time it would have taken you to do a cold call anyway, assuming you got connected with them. So, you're not actually like any pound-for-pound losing any time. But now you have an asset, okay? You have a link. With this link, you can now send it not just once through a through the phone where, you know, 50% of people are just going to look at that and think it's spam anyway. You can send it through email, okay? LinkedIn. You can send it through Twitter or X. You could send it through Instagram. You could send through Facebook. Okay, assuming you get all of the personal information of all these people. Do you know what that means? Let's say there's just a 20% chance that they look through all of these platforms. Okay, 20% chance they check their LinkedIn, Twitter, 20% chance they check their Instagram, 20% chance they check their Facebook. Okay, you know what this means mathematically? It's 0. 8 raised to the five. And if you subtract one by this, all of these collectively mean that there's something like a 67% chance they will see the thing. If your thing's really good and it's hyper customized, well, that means that two out of three people, and realistically, you know, some people are going to look at your stuff and not like it. Maybe half of people can actually respond to you. You can literally get reply rates like 50%. Everybody that I work with today, everybody on my team, which I'm just building now, reached out to me with some variant of this. either they recorded a video for me that was super customized. They talked about, you know, who they were and why they thought that they could help me and what mistake I was making, what value they could drive for me, or they went and actually created some other asset for me, like, you know, they went and they edited a video for me or created some thumbnails for me or something like that. This stuff works. It works really well. So, if you do, you know, 10 of those a day, even assuming it takes you like two or three minutes to get the LinkedIn and the Twitter, whatever, you'd have some research stuff and assuming you do it yourself. If it takes like five minutes each, right? Hell, let's say six minutes, you have some pitch, dude, you're spending an hour a day and you have a reusable asset, repurposable asset, you can an hour a day to get like 50% reply rates realistically. Not everybody's going to get this, but if you are very good at offering a ton of value, if you're reasonable on camera, if you have all the skills that would have made you a good cold caller anyway, then this number is going to be very high. You spend an hour a day and then you're going to do probably like 5 to 10x the results of what you'd get of a cold call. Now, I am pulling numbers out of my ass, so don't hold me on the 5 to 10x here. I didn't do a big study on it, but that's my gut feeling. And you know, this is coming from somebody that used to do tons of cold calls. So, I hope

### [9:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0bUCu6pZlI&t=558s) Finding and converting ICP

that helps. Thanks for sharing, Nick. Have a lot of fun watching you do all this stuff, experiment, play around with ideas. Thanks, man. Quick question. I'm currently building an AI automation agency center around content automation and repurposing. Nice. I want to tackle founders as my ICP. This stands for ideal customer persona. And I've been having a bit of success with that. I figured I'd reach out to you and ask if you had some insights. What do you think is the ideal customer for an agency like mine that repurposes content, distributes it to other platforms. And how did you get their services or find them besides the obvious LinkedIn and Upwork? Well, I think your ideal customer is probably somebody like me. Well, not somebody like me, but somebody around a similar level to me that is just starting to standardize their content creation. maybe between 10k like 10k to 100k followers on some social media platform because they're just at the beginning of their you know hopefully exponential climb upwards. They're just the part where they're probably starting to outsource or work with a team to help standardize the delivery and they're just looking for like much cheaper ways to do that. You know, if instead of you having to hire a team to manage your real strategy like I'm doing, I could just take a transcript and use that transcript to automatically generate posts for 10 social media platforms, cue them up to be published and either do that automatically or have, you know, like a person do it depending on whether you want to risk being soft throttled for reach. Like that's a very simple and easy problem that you could solve. How to scrape these leads or how to get them? There are variety of ways. I guess I would just get like maybe three platforms to start. So maybe Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. And then what you're looking for is you're just looking for channels or pages that have maybe between 10 to 100K, 10 to 50 or 10 to 100K. I mean, I'm pulling these numbers out of my ass, but like my gut tells me that's probably right. And then pump them into Apify. So, get yourself a scraper, okay? Like a YouTube scraper, let's say. Pump in like 50 search terms. Have AI come up with a bunch of search terms. Pump those search terms into something like the YouTube scraper. And it looks like this. Some paste per result, which is nice. You're going to return a thousand videos for $5. Okay, those thousand videos are probably going to be made by like 600 people cuz some people are going to repeat. Okay, so mathematically, this is what it's going to look like. 1 th000 videos maybe. Okay, let's just be easy and say there's 500 creators. And what you do is you just take the top 10% of those. So when you scrape data using something like this, you'll usually get channel name, right? Social media links, comments, video title, stuff like that. So you actually get the number of subscribers, right? So just sort them. Just sort the subscribers that come in. sort the channels by subscriber count. Okay, so Nick Raf's obviously going to be in top with 53K or whatever, 54K, I don't know. Then another person here with 28K. 27K and you know all the way down to 12K or something. And now you have the channels. You have 10 channels. Well, you can do more if you want, right? You don't just have to do 10. You can do like 100 of the 500. I said top 10% here, so maybe do 50. Okay, so now you have 50 channels, right? Now that you know, you have their YouTube, so on their YouTube channel, a lot of the time, you can either run another scraper automatically, like a YouTube channel scraper. And then when you do that, you're actually going to get the links in the video descriptions, and you're also going to get like the links that people put right over here. Check this out. You see where it says three more links? You know, you're going to get their Instagram channel. website and stuff like that. Now, you're going to have a bunch of contact details about them, basically. And then from here you could get like their IG, their Facebook, their X or Twitter, their LinkedIn. Right now that you have all this, what you could do is you could take one of their long form pieces of content, assuming that you know YouTube is the main source that you're using. Then you could automatically create content for all these using your system, which the marginal cost of that should be like less than a few cents, right? 2 cents or something. And then just do this. Do this outreach approach that I talked about up here where you customize your outreach based off some video hypothetically. Or, you know, if you don't want to do a video, you could just make the asset be this stuff, but just make sure that there's some level of customization to it. And then send that out. I think that did pretty well. In fact, this is like a funnel that I know a lot of people in my community do right now. Not the exact same funnel. This is how I would set it up. Some people set it up differently, but yeah. From study

### [13:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0bUCu6pZlI&t=792s) Improving cold email campaigns

motivation 6838. They ask, "Nick, question. Can you walk through cold email personalization? I've been running my campaign and my reply rates are really thin, like 1 to 2% at volume 5,400 per month. And I haven't done emailing before, so I expected better results from the personalized emails. Can you quickly share how you'd go about personalizing writing the copy to get more than a 2% reply rate? Target audience, marketing agencies, lead source, sales navigator. Yeah, for sure. Well, first of all, 2% reply rates aren't bad. Okay, so let me just scroll all the way down here. Let's just like take stock of the facts first and foremost. Now, somebody that's run campaigns that have achieved higher than 20% reply rates. I know for a fact, let's say you have a 2% reply rate. Let's say you're also going after marketing campaigns, uh, sorry, marketing, um, companies, and then what was the other thing that you mentioned back there? You're sourcing them through sales nav, right? So, yeah, I'm happy to help with that, but I want you to know that like just personalizing emails now is not enough. Uh, it's not enough just like personalize the first line of an email because everybody's now personalizing email, right? I want you to think about this stuff as strategy, foundational strategy is much more important than the day-to-day tactics that you use to, you know, acquire leads or make money. The reason why is because tactics are a constantly shifting goalpost. like the I don't know let's say like you're here and you're in this hypothetical barrel basically the water line is always going up over time right and so if you want to stay afloat it's not enough just to stay where you are you need to like actually learn how to swim and get yourself out right so in our case what do we know well we know that like cold email personalization was awesome over the course of the last like you know 6 to 12 months and it was sufficient for you to write an icebreaker variable, stick that at the front of your email and do, you know, get really good results with it. Okay? Nowadays, if you want to achieve really high quality response rates and stuff, you usually have to do more. So, we're going to take the strategy of the icebreaker and we're going to apply it across the email. And I'm not going to focus as much on tactics. I'm just going to focus on like the wider principles that, you know, are ultimately responsible for what I consider a good email. So, typically the way that like a high performing email works or has worked over the last little bit is you have some sort of icebreaker. In the icebreaker, it says like, "Hey, Nick. " Then it'll say something like, and this is very important, by the way. If your reply rates are shitty, it might just be that your personalization sucks. So, definitely go through every row, test out 20, and ask yourself for all of these, if I read the email, would this turn me off before I've even clicked on it? If the answer to more than I don't know, two out of those 20, 10% is yes, then you're going to need to fix that. So, typically the ones that I find perform the best is something like, "Hey, Nick, deeply respect. " So, if you're targeting like influencers, something like that, deeply respect your work, especially paraphrased post. Okay, what do I mean by paraphrased post? I mean, you go and you get some social media information on them, something that they post on LinkedIn or Facebook or some information that is only accessible on their website or something. Then you pass that in AI and you paraphrase it. Because you're doing this, the person is now going to be under the impression that you've actually gone through the extra step and hassle of getting to know them and their approach. But because you also just have like a couple of templated sections like, "Hey, deeply respect your work and stuff. " You can take advantage of like good copyrightiting principles. If you template out the whole icebreaker nowadays, I find it typically devolves into, "Hello, Peter. I love that your combined emphasis and focus on X Y and Z has yielded fantastic results and I believe strongly in the same things that you do or something. I don't know. You just tend to lose a little bit of punchiness. So typically, you know, you have to constrain the icebreaker quite a bit. You have to provide it a template like hey name deeply respect your work especially paraphrase thing. Then you just have to have the AI generate the paraphrase thing. Okay. Next up you need some sort of like identification. So this is the first part of a good email. You need to like ID yourself. So what I usually do is let's say I'm reaching out to marketing people. Hey Nick, deeply respect your work, especially your last post on I don't know using AI in marketing or something, right? Don't just copy the title of the post. Especially your last post on 13 ways why AI is better than XYZ cuz then the person will know that you just scrape them, right? The whole idea is the strategic part here is you want to show the person right off the bat that this is personalized outreach or you want to at least make it seem as personalized as humanly possible right off the bat. But then the question is obviously okay so who the hell is this person and why the hell are they reaching out to me? So you have to answer those questions immediately. So, typically the way that I do it is I'll do something like I work with X or I do Y or I'm a Z. And each of these are just like oneline things. So, when I was running PR campaigns, I was getting 20% reply rates, reaching out to journalists, basically looking for spots for my clients. We're talking like Forbes and Techrunch and so on and so forth. I would say I work with insert client name here. Okay, he does insert a really cool thing here. So my like they, he, she typically you want to make this as personalized as possible. So you want to like stay away from plural pronouns like they like the company does, right? You want it to be like oh this is like Sam and he asked me to reach out to you. That's the vibe you want. It does really cool thing. Okay. Alternatively, you know, you could say, "I do Y," where Y is some amazing badass thing that you know is fantastic and that only you can do. So, I add $15,336 per month brackets average marketing to Sydney marketing companies between 50 to 100K with some super specific thing. So, I let me just erase this and actually write that I add $15,372 per month in Rev average to Sydney marketing companies. And a marketing company is a very vague term. So ideally like the way that companies like this tend to brand themselves is like some variant of that like a creative agency or PPC ads agencies or some specialty within this. So marketing companies is not the best term to use here to Sydney marketing companies that I don't know they have some special angle or something. This is where you put the special angle. Are you scraping companies that have the term AI somewhere on their company page? Well, that's where you'd put it. Okay, this is like your little unique thing. Or you could also just be blunt and say, "I'm a freelancer who builds, I don't know, X systems that do Y. Why are there so many choices here? " Because human behavior is not fixed. I can't just tell you exactly what the perfect line is that'll work for your particular situation, right? So, I actually just recommend testing all of these approaches against each other. write 10 of these ID lines and then just pit them against each other. Okay, but now our email is starting to take shape, right? We have this which is like two lines and then we have another thing which is hopefully one line. And what you want to do next is you basically you need some sort of social proof. So you need some reason why the person should listen to you and actually believe what you have to say. Cuz like think about it from the customer psychology point of view, right? They see an email in their inbox. What's the very first thing they're trying to determine? Is this spam or is this a real person? That's what this solves, right? It's like, "Oh, okay. This is a real person. They've clearly done some reading and research. " Click. Now, they read this and they're like, "Okay, what's the next question that comes to mind psychologically? Okay, so who is this person? Why is this relevant to me? " You've solve that. Now, what's the next question? Okay, but how do I know this person actually knows their Right? So, we're just proceeding logically, strategically down like what a human being looks for information-wise. And when you construct information in this way, people tend to respect you a lot more because you're showing that you respect them. You respect their time. You know that you're just some random dude in an inbox. You're constructing your outreach in such a way to minimize the amount of work they have to do to get to the point where they can make a decision. So now you have some social proof. So I work with blah blah. Usually the way that social proof works best is when you say last day, week, month. Like you specify, you get super specific with when you deliver this thing. So last I don't know X I did Y for a Z company. Okay. So I basically delivered the exact same thing that I'm trying to do here. Last Tuesday, you know, I wrapped up a campaign that delivered $108,372 in revenue in just two months for another Sydney marketing company very similar to yours. And then you have your offer. Okay? Because now obviously what's the question? It's like, oh, okay. Well, this person's saying that they all stuff. So like now we're going to get a brass tax. So what do you want from me then? Right. Now it's like I'm really confident I can do the same for you or better usually is what I say. The same or better. It' be, you know, you can like fluff this up. It'd be the exact same approach and I'd copy and paste the playbook. Usually when I write stuff like this, people like it because they're like, "Okay, like this is they're just going to copy and paste what work for that company. " And I'll copy paste the playbook. If you guys want to take this whole thing, you don't have to pause the video. This is in the link in the description, by the way. So, basically, I'm saying I'm confident I can do the same or better for you. It'd be the same approach. So, I'd copy and paste this playbook. If here's like the real risk reversal part. If you didn't make at least insert really cool thing here in Y time, I do it all for free. Although you should avoid the term free in emails. So that's why I say stuff like at least X in Y time you wouldn't pay. And I always say something like you wouldn't pay a dime, scent or something. Okay. Then finally, now that you've sort of slapped your on the table, um, or other parts depending on who you are, now you basically just do like a CTA. So you ask, and the ask is like, is this worth your time? Is this worth like 15 minutes later today? And if you get really specific with times, I can do 3:30 p. m. people are a lot more likely to say yes. Just shoot me your number and I'll call on the dot. I don't actually usually recommend phone, but I just wanted to show you guys some formats that you could do. Thanks, Nick. Okay, this is what I consider a pretty high converting email today, but you can actually go even further. Okay, we have all the parts here. The strategy. Okay. And the strategy is just like, you know, look at human psychology. What does a human being care about? Okay. What do they care about? And how do we deliver the information that they care about in the right sequence so that they can, you know, make the decision as quickly as possible. Here's like the higher level thing. You see how we personalize the icebreaker here? What you can do is you can actually use AI to personalize all of this stuff, too. Okay. So, hypothetically, let's say you have a bunch of case studies and those case studies are all for different types of companies. What you can do is you could feed in this lead and then have AI tell you what sort of case study you should pull to be as relevant as possible for this person. Okay, so maybe now your social proof is actually just social proof like a social proof variable. Okay, instead of this maybe your offer, okay, maybe you have different offers depending on what AI identified as the most likely issue that the company is struggling with based off of some social media stuff. Maybe that's a little 50/50, but I've been doing this stuff, exactly what I'm talking here, for the better part of four years. My business partner actually got me on to um using customized case studies based off of how relevant they are to the customer. That has been very interesting. Okay, you could use liquid syntax variables and instantly. If you're unfamiliar with what this looks like, you can actually mathematically determine what times to pitch based off of a variable. Okay, so you could create a variable called time age, equate that to now, fill that in with a date. Then if the current time is less than 1200, then insert the term morning. If it's after 1500, insert afternoon. If it's after both of these, then insert evening. You could adjust this logic pretty simply to offer specific days and times based off of your calendar availability or just what time it is, right? And like, sure, do you really care if this isn't perfect? Like what happens if you double book somebody? Oh, no. I have two meetings instead of one. Yeah, it's not ideal, but at least you're like actually booking, right? So, just get up and running. Break stuff. Head down to the description and feel free to like go through this Excala draw. You know, if I were you, I probably wouldn't like try rewriting it all. I just take a screenshot and then paste it into chat GBT with something like extract all this text. For the most part, it'll turn it into just a snippet that you can copy

and paste. Sacha says, "I know you made a long ass video about make versus end, but which one do you prefer going forward, Nick, cuz t for me, I really love how looks. " Well, that was kind of the point of the video. The whole point of the video is that like if you're at the start line to make a long story short, if you're at the start line of your business, you're going to want to use make, but if you know how automation works and you've been making some money off of it, so maybe 5 10 or 15,000 bucks a month, n certainly has more ability. Like the tool itself is it's more polished, uh has a lot of like built-in AI functionality. Like moving forward, N is the tool for sure, but it just depends on where you are in your journey. So, don't let this decision stop you from doing daily lead generation activities for make. com if you've already learned a
