What's the ideal length for cold emails? 📏
The Cold email generator helps you get more replies by writing emails of the perfect length.
The optimal cold email length is about 120 words.
Among millions of campaigns analyzed, this word count yielded the highest average rate of meetings booked, around 50%.
The optimal cold email length is about 120 words.
Among millions of campaigns analyzed, this word count yielded the highest average rate of meetings booked, around 50%.
But your emails don’t have to be exactly 120 words long, of course. The sweet spot is 75-125 words.*
This range gets 5-15% higher reply rates than longer or shorter emails.
How you structure your email also impacts your response rates.
Your recipient is inevitably skimming their inbox. Sending long paragraphs makes it harder for them to read quickly, even if you've optimized the number of words. And if they have to put work into reading your email, they won't reply.
A good way to measure readability is by the number of lines. According to another study, emails with about 20 lines, including line breaks, have the best click-through rates.

When to write longer emails
Writing 120-word emails is a proven way to get more replies, but you don't have to stick with it throughout your campaign.
As you follow up with your prospects, you should write longer emails.
Follow-up emails typically need more context as your prospect may need to remember your first message.
You may need to add some extra information so your prospects understand your request.

When to send cold emails? 🕜
It's not just the length of the emails that matters, but also when you send them.
So, we pulled up our sleeves and conducted a study. 💪
Traditionally, open rate has been the go-to metric for determining the best time to send emails.
Unfortunately, open rates are not reliable anymore.
So we turned to reply rate and tried to answer the question: “What’s the best time to send emails to maximize replies?”
The answer? Monday morning between 5 and 8 AM.
This early-morning window is also effective on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, though reply rates tend to dip on Fridays and drop significantly over the weekend.

Even perfect timing won't make a poorly written email perform well.

Then, when your campaigns are running smoothly, go for that extra edge by sending your emails at the optimal times—like early in the morning.
