Cold email that books meetings.

I'm Jeff, a Cold Email Manager based in Cebu, PH. I find the right buyers, write emails that sound like a person wrote them, run the campaigns, and handle the replies until a meeting is on your calendar.

How a campaign runs

Six steps, and I've run every one of them.

This is how I take a campaign from "who should we email?" to booked meetings and clean records.

    Work samples

    Real cold emails I've written.

    Sent for clients in different industries. Names are replaced with merge fields, and the labels show what each line is doing.

    Results

    One campaign, by the numbers.

    The figures come straight from one of my campaign dashboards. The client's name is hidden.

    Experience

    Nine years on the other side of the conversation.

    I started in support, moved into sales, then into booking meetings, then into running outbound. Each job taught me something I still use.

    About

    I've spent years talking to the people on the other end of the email.

    Before cold email, I answered billing calls, calmed down frustrated customers, and closed sales over the phone. That taught me what makes someone reply and what makes them hit delete. I put it into every line I write.

    Today I handle the whole outbound process: researching who to reach, building the list, writing the emails, running the campaigns, and working the replies until the meeting is booked. I like systems, so I write SOPs and automate the repetitive parts with tools like Make, ChatGPT and Claude.

    Questions

    Before you reach out.

    Can you work in the tools we already use?

    Yes. I've run campaigns in Smartlead, Instantly and EmailBison, and worked in Attio, Salesforce, Zoho, Airtable and Notion. If you use something else, I'll learn it.

    Do you write the emails, or just send them?

    I write them. That includes the copy, subject lines and calls to action, plus variations to test. You can see real examples in the work samples above.

    Will you handle the replies too?

    Yes. I manage the inbox, qualify interested leads, follow up, and book the meeting onto your calendar.

    Are you available for full-time, part-time or project work?

    Yes to all three. I take on one-off projects, ongoing part-time work, and full-time roles. You can download my resume below.
