Cold emails are a great way to land a job.

Here& #39;s what I& #39;ve learned:

∙ Email the CEO directly.
∙ Show that you& #39;re unique.
∙ Be specific.
∙ Make a bold request.
∙ Have a clear call-to-action.
∙ Don& #39;t be humble. This isn& #39;t the time to be modest.

Now... make magic happen.

I admire the audacity of this email.

Here& #39;s an email I sent to @tylercowen in 2017.

He agreed to come on my podcast, so I took a smelly $5 MegaBus from New York to Washington D.C to interview him.

That interview led to my "Emergent Ventures" grant and all the incredible support I& #39;ve received from Tyler.

Ok, friends... I typed up an example for you.

I used the example of @TaskRabbit and added a random employee& #39;s name.

It& #39;s yours. 100% yours.

Copy it, change the words, and email the coolest person you can think of.

Cold emails and writing online are the ultimate 1-2 punch.
