Kidous | Co-Founder @ Inframail

I stopped worrying about how to "save" money and focused on how I could make money. been learning ever since

just pick a business vertical plumbers roofers chiropractors home remodelers in Arizona PR agencies write one offer in their language. a plumber hears "rank when someone searches plumbing in your area", not "backlinks" then send cold email to only them, every day, from domains named after their niche and your marketing and your SOPs only ever have to fit one kind of client

grow up. start sending cold email for your agency. seriously. it's the easiest play you can make if you want to land a client THIS WEEK. my solar agency had 0 clients when I started emailing roofing and solar companies. I asked if they wanted a personalized video first, and only sent it once they said yes. 1 yes = $3,300 a month minus my $400 contractor = $2,900 profit no case studies. no client logos. I borrowed testimonials from my media buyer's work with other solar agencies. then I got cocky and played a bit more Fortnite. churned him 2 months later lol

This may be controversial but sending cold emails with open tracking on is POINTLESS people complain about: - landing in spam - burned domains - "your infrastructure doesn't work" open tracking is a hidden pixel in every email, so you're basically mass-sending a link to thousands of people I turn it off on every campaign. I've seen it not work time and time again

pov: you're still "personalizing every email" and a guy with a mediocre cold email just closed your dream client

We scaled to 20,000 cold emails a day in less than 4 years. No one wants to hear this, but there's no magic number of inboxes. This is what my own sending looked like at each stage. Agency days: a VA and a headache. Expensive Google Workspace and Zoho bills. The first time I set it all up myself it took days and I gave up. 2023: 400 inboxes in 40 minutes. The old way was 200 domains, 30 minutes per inbox, 200 hours. On our own platform it took 40 minutes. Then: 10,000+ a day. 198 domains, 990 inboxes, all on my own campaigns. 2025: 20k a day. Almost 400 domains and 1,990 inboxes. Now: the whole platform. Tens of millions a month across Inframail. None of these stages replaced the last one. Warm-up never switched off, and every new inbox got its 2 weeks first. If you take one thing from this: I'd never decide anything before 10,000 sends. It's purely a volume game.

I just leaked our entire B2B SaaS growth system. (Started in credit card debt and $0 in VC money behind this)

i think someone needs to create a tool that bans ai slop from going into support chats something for intercom to BAN the ai slop maxxers

Honestly a fire cold email strategy 1. Email local businesses with no website: "I made you a free website because I noticed you didn't have one. If you like it, you could possibly buy it. If not, I'll kick rocks." 2. When they reply, have Lovable or Base44 build the site 3. Send it back within 5 to 10 minutes 4. Call them: "did you see the website I sent you?" 5. Charge $1,000 up front + $200/mo for hosting AI voice agents come after, as the upsell

After sending tens of millions of cold emails & serving 2,000+ B2B companies, I put together a video covering the 6-part AI reply prompt that books demos on my calendar. Here's what's inside: - the role: how it acts and sounds (professional, casual, slightly funny, very human) - the context: your product, pricing and what makes you different - the key details: your FAQ, so it answers what people always ask - the output format: 1-2 sentences per line, short enough to scan - the angle: every reply ends by inviting them to a demo - the constraints: never curse, never send links unless asked, and if someone asks "are you an AI?" it admits it with a light joke - my own full prompt, so you see how granular I go I tested it with "I like Brad Pitt" as a reply and it still steered back to the demo lol Comment "AGENT" and I'll DM you the video.

Cold DMs or cold email. Choose wisely

I still think about this tweet

when you start winning it's absolutely too addicting and you go manic from how much is possible and how much you need to do before it's lights out on earth

My top 10 cold email tools so far: 1. MillionVerifier. I verify the list right before a campaign goes out, never months before. 2. Listmint. For the catch-all emails the other verifiers can't check. 3. Reoon. A very cheap option that's still pretty good. 4. Mail Meteor. Paste the email in and it flags the shady, urgent or over-promising words. 5. Hemingway. Grades the reading level. I keep mine at 4th grade. 6. A spintax GPT. Paste your email in and it writes the variations for every line. 7. Plusvibe. The AI reply agent comes free with the plan, and it books demos on my calendar. 8. Instantly or Smartlead. The Lead ESP filter lets me pull Outlook leads out in a few clicks. 9. The Unibox. Every reply in one place, without forwarding all your domains to one address. 10. Ocean.io. Put in a customer's domain and it pulls lookalike companies, each with a lookalike score. None of them fix a bad offer. That part's still on you. Which one would you want to see an in depth breakdown of?

POV: you just leaked the 2-minute Loom playbook that sold up to $50K MRR

Free setup + paid software = 60-80% closed on the call. That's our own close rate, depending on the month. Other people charge thousands for setup, so giving ours away made the yes easy. I wrote out exactly how we built the offer: - Selling the result - One sentence - Saying what it doesn't include - Giving away the part they hate - Taking payment on the call Full breakdown in the article:

Inframail is bootstrapped and does 6 figures a month in revenue. A big part of the machine behind it is cold outbound. Our MRR hit about $38K in January 2024, against $1,454 in month 1. I broke down our whole growth strategy: - One niche - Cold DMs - Cold email - The 2-minute Loom - Paid ads, last - What broke at scale Full breakdown is in the article:

I can't believe this is free. (Full guide on how to scale a B2B SaaS to $79K a month)

I'm Kidous, the CEO of Inframail, and we've crossed 7 figures in revenue. In one year, I booked 754 calls using cold outbound. The part that decides how many of them go anywhere is how fast you answer. An MIT study found leads called back in 5 minutes were 21 times more likely to qualify than leads called back in 30. Here's the setup I use so I never sit in my inbox waiting (save this): 1. Instantly marks the reply It tags interested leads by itself, so only those ping you. 2. Zapier catches it Trigger: lead marked as interested, in the campaign you pick. 3. Discord or Slack pings you A channel message that says "new cold email reply", with a link straight to the Unibox. 4. The bot gets a name Mine's called money lol 5. You reply from your phone The Instantly app works at the gym or in the grocery store. 6. AI writes the first draft Instantly drafts it, you fix it and hit send. 7. About a minute of delay Reply in seconds and people think it's fake. A minute still reads human. The whole thing is a 2-step Zap. A lead who waits 20 minutes starts asking if they even want it. Speed = money.
