And after working with dozens of startups and helping eager newcomers to their income goals, one thing is crystal clear to me…

Creating a predictable system for sales is the ‘missing link’ for thousands of ambitious entrepreneurs online.

It’s what holds people back from getting the profits they need to run a crazy-successful business…

So that’s why it’s important for me to share everything I know here

My “go-to marketing method” is raved about in Inc, Hubspot, Entrepreneur, Business Insider, Forbes, & Tim Ferriss.

What is this magic method?

It’s the same method Elon Musk used when building up Paypal.com.

It’s also what Uber used it to launch in Chicago and several other cities. Introducing Cold Email…..

A marketing and sales strategy that you don’t need any money or any more tools than you already have to start. If you have an email address, then you already have everything you need.

That simplicity is what keeps it “The Best Kept Secret of Silicon Valley”

It’s also a scalable strategy capable of generating millions, even giving early traction to industry goliaths like as Paypal and Uber.

Salesforce.com pretty much pioneered cold email selling and it’s how they built themselves into a billion dollar company.

How I used cold email to build 4 businesses and partner with a foreign government.

Business #1: Growth Hacker TV

In 2012 we decided to be the first platform dedicated to learning about growth hacking. And the best way to do that was leveraging the knowledge of others. Did I have a network to tap into? NO. So I rolled up my sleeves and started emailing.

Business #2: Dental Destinations

Business #3: Knowledgely

In 2010 I wanted to take all that I learned marketing my company Dental Destinations and give other small businesses access to all that knowledge. But I also wanted to make it really special by recruiting rockstar instructors to contribute their knowledge.

Who can use cold email….

Services

Cold email is a no brainer if you sell services or software. Imagine the house maid who cold emails everyone in her neighborhood with quick tips to remove the oil from their driveway, and then offers to do it for free.

Or the SEO guy who emails website owners with a unique tip on how to score a few high quality backlinks and then asks to setup a call.

Services is what I was selling when I built GrowthGeeks.com to a million dollar company with cold email.

Software

Software also works great, because it’s just like services. Software does something for the user. What makes software better than services is often you pay less or only once for the software.

Salesforce.com pretty much pioneered cold email selling and it’s how they built themselves into a billion dollar company.
