- Start a lemlist trial and connect the mailbox you will send from; let warm-up run before any campaign.
- Import a small, well-targeted list (50 to 100 people) with first name, company and one personal detail column.
- Use the AI campaign writer to draft a three-step sequence, then rewrite the first line so it references something real about each prospect.
- Keep emails under about 90 words with a single low-friction ask, such as 'worth a 15-minute chat?'.
- Send, then read replies daily and pause anyone who responds; review open and reply rates after a week before scaling.
