[1/2]: “You are now an email marketing specialist. I will ask for your help regarding cold

email clients. Do you understand? If you do, please begin referring to yourself as "Ivan,
your email marketing specialist.”

[2/2]: “Ok, Ivan, so you understand how to best help me here is your backstory -- you
have 10+ years of email marketing experience, including running many multi-million
dollar companies. Your experience reflects that of all the available email marketing
information on the internet as of September 2021. To confirm you understand your
backstory, please respond by saying, "Ay Ay, captain!”

2. Tweaking:

“I would like you to map out an email marketing strategy with my niche and with
available resources. Here is all the information you need to get started:
What I do: I write articles on health, wellness, productivity, and how to make money
online.
What I'm looking for: clients who want to license my articles, for a fee. I'm aiming for a
non-exclusive rights agreement.
Question I need answered (by you, Ivan): - How/where to find potential clients? - An
email script to send to them? - how long should I wait before following up? -How many
cold emails should I send per week, if I want to make $2,000 per month? -What is the
best call-to-action to ask clients in my initial email.

If you have any questions, please ask them before creating the strategy. If you have all
the information you need, please get started with the strategy now.”

3. Continue to tweak until it reaches your satisfaction. For example…

[1/3]: “Ok, this is a great starting place. I would like to you now expand upon point

[2/3]: “Ok, great. Another pain point is the time it takes to respond to emails and keep
tabs on conversations. What are some tools I can use to automate follow-up emails and
responses?”

Plan)

Step #1: Building a Targeted Email List

The first step is to identify potential clients interested in licensing your articles. You can
create a list of potential clients by searching for companies and individuals who publish
articles on health, wellness, productivity, and making money online. You can use search
engines, social media, and online directories to find potential clients. LinkedIn can also
be a valuable resource for finding potential clients in your niche. You can also consider
using lead generation tools like Hunter, Apollo, or Lusha to help you find email
addresses for your target clients.

1. Following Up:
It's important to follow up with potential clients after you've sent your initial email.

Writing Business Plan 3


You can send a follow-up email within 3-5 business days of your initial email. Keep
your follow-up email brief and polite, and remind the client of your services and how
they can benefit from licensing your articles.

2. Sending Cold Emails Per Week:


To make $2,000 per month, you will need to send about 10-15 cold emails per
week. However, the number of emails you send per week will depend on how many
potential clients you have on your list.

3. Call-to-Action:
In your initial email, you can include a call-to-action (CTA) that encourages potential
clients to respond to your email. For example, you could ask them to reply to your
email or schedule a call to discuss your services further.

Here are 3 free tools you can use to find email leads for potential buyers:

1. Hunter (formerly known as Email Hunter): Hunter allows you to find email
addresses associated with a specific domain or company. Simply enter the domain
name, and it will provide you with a list of email addresses found on that website.
The free plan offers limited searches per month.

2. Snov.io Email Finder: Snov.io Email Finder enables you to find email addresses by
entering the name and domain of a person or company. It searches for publicly
available email addresses and verifies them for deliverability. The free plan provides
a limited number of email searches per day.

3. Voila Norbert: Voila Norbert is a tool that helps you find email addresses by
entering the name and company domain of a person. It searches through its
extensive database to provide you with the most accurate email addresses. The
free plan allows a limited number of email searches per month.

These tools can assist you in finding email leads for potential buyers at no cost, helping
you identify and connect with relevant prospects for your business.

Step #2: Email Script

Once you have identified your potential clients, the next step is to send them a cold
email introducing yourself and your services. Your email should be concise,
professional, and focused on the value you can provide to the client. You can use the
following template to create your email:

Dear [Client Name],

I came across your website and was impressed with the quality of the content you
publish on [your niches/topics]. I specialize in writing articles on these topics and I
wanted to offer you the opportunity to license my articles for a fee.

My articles are well-researched, informative, and engaging, and I'm confident that they
would be a great addition to your website. I'm offering non-exclusive rights to my
articles, which means you can publish them on your website, distribute them, and use
them as resources. But, I remain the owner.

If you're interested in learning more about my services, please let me know and I'll be
happy to send you some samples of my work.

Best regards,

for the license. Specify the payment amounts, due dates, and consequences for late
or non-payment.

4. Usage Rights: Clearly define the usage rights granted to the User, including any

Step #5: Cold Emails Per Week


To achieve a monthly income of $2,000, it is recommended to send approximately 10-15
cold emails per week. However, the exact number of emails will vary depending on the
size of your potential client list.

It's important to strike a balance between outreach efforts and the number of potential
clients you have identified. Regularly evaluate and adjust your email sending frequency
based on the size and quality of your target audience to optimize your chances of
securing licensing agreements.

Notes:

To make $2,000 per month, send about 10-15 cold emails per week.

The number of emails you send per week will depend on how many potential clients
you have on your list.
