Done-for-you cold outbound

Outbound written by someone who's actually carried a number.

Velo runs cold email for B2B teams — strategy, copywriting, infrastructure, and delivery. We get the warm replies into your inbox. You take it from there.

Alex —

Recruiters I talk to say the same thing: sourcing and screening eat the whole day, and new business development never gets touched.

I built a system that runs outbound for staffing firms — new client conversations land in your inbox, you just show up to the call.

Real example — staffing & recruiting. Same system runs for agencies, legal, logistics, and insurance too.
How it works

Four steps. Nothing you have to manage.

Every engagement runs the same disciplined process, whether it's your first campaign or your fifth. Click through to see what happens at each stage.

Who we're writing to

Every list starts with a tight ICP — not a broad blast. Here's the filter for the example on the left.

  • Owner / Director of Recruiting
  • Staffing & recruiting firm, 1–50 employees
  • US time zones
  • Pain: sourcing & screening eat the day, BD never gets touched

Infrastructure & warmup

Sending domains get configured properly, then warmed for 2–3 weeks before anything goes out cold. This step is identical no matter the niche.

Copywriting

Short sentences, one ask, no mail-merge smell — written the way a rep would actually pitch. The opener is always specific to the niche.

Send & triage replies

Emails go out in two daily windows tuned to when buyers actually check their inbox. Replies get sorted, and the warm ones get flagged straight to you.

Day 2"Worth a look — send more details?"Interested
Day 2Auto-reply — out of office until the 14thOOO
Day 3"Not the right time for us"Not interested
What lands in their inbox

A real sequence, not a mad-lib template.

This is an actual four-email sequence. Same rules apply to every niche we write for — pick a niche, then click through each step.

No SDR to hire, no CRM to babysit. I handle the emails, you handle the placements.

Alex — following up on this.

Most staffing firms grow by referral until it stalls, then scramble for new clients. Outbound fixes that before it becomes a problem.

Happy to send a couple of the emails we're sending on behalf of other agencies so you can see the angle.

Still worth 15 minutes?

Alex — I know outbound is easy to ignore when the desk's already full of searches and screens.

But the firms landing new clients right now are the ones who never stopped prospecting.

If new client flow isn't a priority, no worries — just let me know and I'll close this out.

Alex — haven't heard back, so I'll assume the timing's off.

If new business ever becomes a priority again, I'm easy to find. Door's open.

Agencies I talk to say the same thing: you're great at generating leads for clients, but your own pipeline runs on referrals and hope.

I run outbound specifically for agencies — new client conversations land in your inbox, you just show up to the call.

No SDR to hire, no CRM to babysit. I handle the emails, you handle the strategy calls.

Figured I'd add some context, Jordan.

Most agencies grow by referral until it stalls, then scramble for new clients. Outbound fixes that before it becomes a problem — same channel you sell to your own clients, just pointed at your own pipeline.

Get it, Jordan — new business is easy to deprioritize when the team's heads-down on client deliverables.

But the agencies landing new clients right now are the ones who never stopped prospecting for themselves.

If new client flow isn't a priority, no worries — just let me know and I'll close this out.

Steps 2–4 reply into the same thread — no new subject line, no re-introducing yourself. It reads like a conversation because it is one.

The math

What sixty emails a day turns into.

The funnel we build every campaign around, based on typical reply rates in the niches we specialize in.

1,320
emails sent / month
60 / day, two windows
79
replies
~6% reply rate
12
calls booked
~15% of replies
3
new clients
~25% close rate

Illustrative, not guaranteed — actual reply and close rates vary by niche, list quality, and offer.

Questions

Before you book the call.

New domains need 2–3 weeks of warmup before anything sends cold. Most clients see first replies in week four or five — rushing warmup is the single fastest way to burn a domain.

No. Velo runs everything on its own infrastructure — sending domains, warmup, and reply triage. You just watch for the flagged replies and take it from there.

Hunter, personally. No outsourced copywriters, no generic AI-generated sequences — every email is written the way a rep would actually pitch.

Close the deals. Replies land in your own inbox, and on Growth and Pro we triage them automatically so the warm ones don't get lost in the noise of out-of-office replies and no-thank-yous.

Primarily staffing & recruiting, marketing agencies, legal services, logistics, and insurance — B2B only. No SaaS, no enterprise, no consumer brands.

Let's see if it fits your pipeline.

Fifteen minutes. No deck, no pressure — just a look at your list and whether outbound makes sense for it right now.
