You don’t always need a connection to get an opportunity. Sometimes, you just need to know how to start a conversation.
Have you ever found a company you’d love to work with, a founder whose work genuinely interests you, or a team you wish you could be a part of?

But there’s one thing we can do: start a conversation yourself.
That’s where cold emailing comes in.
