You are 2x+ more likely to book a meeting during a cold email when asking your prospect for their interest versus asking for time (a specific or open-ended CTA).
An interest CTA sells the conversation, not the meeting.
And that matters because time is finite — 24/7/365, you know. So why would a buyer give YOU, a seller who they know little about, some of that super-valuable time?
Contrast that with interest — a “non-finite resource,” and you are more likely to move your deal forward.

Short is generally 30 words or less. Concise usually means short, but it also implies meaning and context. Lo...
