Cold outreach sequence after lead collection (compliance-first)

Cold Outreach Sequence After Lead Collection (Compliance-First) β€” 2026

Scraping leads is the easy part. The hard part is sending outreach without destroying deliverability or violating compliance basics. This sequence is built for relevance, opt-outs, and clean sending habits.

Not legal advice. Follow local laws and platform rules. Always include opt-out and honor suppression lists.

Before You Send: Minimum Deliverability Setup

  • Use SPF/DKIM (and DMARC if you scale)
  • Keep lists clean (verify + remove bounces)
  • Include unsubscribe and honor opt-outs
  • Send low volume first, then scale slowly
