This is almost exactly how I landed my first full-time gig as a copywriter. Great write-up. Have you heard of Alex Berman? That's where I first got introduced to a lot of these tools like mail merge.
And that last line was relatable af haha. The OOO emails always start flooding in.
I'm interested in more outreach content. I'm exploring ways to move beyond relying on referrals and this is one of them. I think I'll either double down on cold outreach or try to grow on LinkedIn.
Cold outreach is really good I've found, and I also get the same lead on LinkedIn and just add them, so they're sort of in my network for good. If you request to connect most people just accept if you have a nice profile.
Hi Caleb, this Google sheets mail merge script works very well, thanks for letting us know about it. However, I've found that it will only work on your primary gmail account, not on any others. Do you know if there is a work around for this at all?
Hey Shell, glad you found it useful :) and that is strange. Does logging in to a new account in step 4 not change it? It could also be to do with being logged into that account on Google Chrome? Let me know if these changes affect it.
I think the problem is with emails which are 'nested behind' gmail accounts, as is the case with the particular one I'm trying to use for mass emails. Gmail will not activate the script on emails like this. But thanks for the reply, Caleb.
Interesting, I'm definitely not an email expert, so thanks for identifying that! It's good to use multiple emails to do outreach too, so this will definitely be needed at some point.
This was very helpful, Caleb.
Especially the "free" part. lol
Cheers
Cheers John 🙏

Nah never, I'm pretty new to the email space.
