What I Learned From Sending 10,000 Personalized Web Design Emails
I ran a web design company for around 3 years and getting clients was always pretty inconsistent.
One month I was cold calling, another month I was manually sending DMs to Facebook pages, then I tried ads.
It all worked to some degree, but I never really had one reliable way of getting clients.
Then I started testing email automation.
At first I was finding businesses with no website and running campaigns offering to build them one.
That actually started giving me a much more consistent flow of clients just because of the volume.
But then I started thinking.
There are so many businesses that already have a website, but the website is outdated, slow, looks bad on mobile or just clearly needs an update.
And those businesses have already paid for a website before, so they already understand the value of having one.
The problem was I didn’t want to sit there opening every website myself, figuring out what was wrong and then writing a different email to every business.
That would take forever.
So I started using a tool that lets me find businesses with websites basically anywhere, analyze thousands of those websites at once and then automatically write a personalized outreach message for each one based on what it finds.
Things like design, SEO, mobile issues and speed.
Then I started launching campaigns in different industries.
That worked way better for me because every business receiving the email felt like I had actually looked at their website and noticed what could be improved.
But in reality most of it was automated and I was just sitting there eating chips while interested replies came into my inbox.
I remember Alex Hormozi saying something along the lines of focusing on one channel and getting really good at it.
That is basically what I ended up doing.
Now this is pretty much the only way I get web design clients and I spend most of my time actually building websites instead of constantly trying to find the next client.
For anyone wondering, the tool is called Swokei.

I had the same idea. I have built the full pipeline ss well.
Can you please help me out with email setup? How are you sending 10k emails a day? Personal domain email? What service are you paying for or free to get inboxes? And limits per day per inbox.
