Cold Email
Unsolicited outbound email to prospects who have not previously engaged with you, a core B2B channel that is heavily constrained by law in parts of Europe.
Why it matters
Cold email can be an efficient pipeline source, but it carries real legal and deliverability risk, and the rules differ sharply by region, which makes it as much a compliance question as a copywriting one.
What good looks like
Effective, defensible cold email is highly targeted and relevant, sent from a warmed and authenticated domain at controlled volume, with a clear opt-out, and respectful of the recipient region's consent rules.
In the European market
This is where a US playbook breaks: Germany's UWG generally requires prior consent for unsolicited B2B advertising email, and several EU countries are stricter than the US. Lean on consent, relevance, and channels like LinkedIn for European outbound.
