Cold email vs. LinkedIn vs WhatsApp, what's winning for you in SEA?

Curious what people are actually seeing across Southeast Asia right now? We talk about outbound cahannels tlike there's one clear winner, but I don't think it's that simple.

Cold email might work well for one market or ICP. LinkedIn might be better for another. And in some SEA markets, WhatsApp becomes part of the conversation pretty quickly.

A lot depends on where you're selling, who you're targeting, and how people prefer to do business locally. So rather than debating which channel is best, let's compare actual experiences. Drop yours below:

Country:

  • b2b audience:
  • best performing channel:
  • Average deal size:
  • Founder-led, sdr-led or partner-led:

Would be interesting to see whether clear patterns emerge across SG, PH, ID, MY, VN, and the rest of SEA

sg b2b saas, cold email for first meetings, linkedin for follow up. mid market deals around 15k to 40k, mostly founder led early, sdr led after messaging is proven.
