How much research do you actually do before reaching out?

Whenever i have rushed prospecting reply rates have been noticeably worse.

These days i spend a few minutes checking things like:

  • whether contacting the right person
  • what the company has been working on recently
  • whether they are even a good fit

It slows me down a bit but the conversations feel much more relevant.

Do you have a research process before outreach or do you prioritize volume?
