Cold Email Is Dead (Unless You Do This) with Taylor Haren
This week on Unf*ck My Startup:
We had a last-minute guest swap, but trust me—Taylor Haren delivered.
He’s the cold email assassin behind one of the fastest-growing campaigns we’ve ever seen: Fixer went from $1M to $10M ARR in 6 months, almost entirely from outbound.
We break down the exact emails, the setup, the send logic, and the secrets behind 4 million emails a month that actually work.
Here’s how it goes down:
00:00 – Why Taylor’s back (and what’s changed since last time)
01:15 – The Fixer campaign: $1M → $10M ARR in 6 months
04:40 – 4M emails/month: what scaling cold outbound actually looks like
08:30 – Why your cold email sucks (and how to unf*ck it)
15:00 – Subject lines, call to actions, and the art of not sounding like a bot
22:10 – Deliverability secrets (that keep your domain off every blacklist)
29:00 – Infrastructure walkthrough: domains, sends, rotation
38:45 – Real-time teardown: breaking down copy that converts
49:00 – Cold email that earns trust, not eye-rolls
You want pipeline? Here’s the blueprint.
If you think cold email is dead, you’re doing it wrong. Let Taylor show you how it’s done.
