7. Follow-up after no reply
Subject: Re: [original subject] Hi [First name], quick follow-up on my note about [one-line offer]. Here's one photo of [product] being worn so you can see the scale: [link]. If now's not the right time, a one-word "later" helps me and I won't keep emailing. [Your name] Use this 4 to 5 days after any template above, once only; then send one more a week later and stop.
8. Your daily send routine
Each morning, pick one template and find 10 people who fit it: 10 boutiques on Google Maps, 10 stylists on Instagram, or 10 office managers on LinkedIn. Fill every bracket with something specific to them, send, and log who replied in a simple spreadsheet. After two weeks you'll know which group buys, so double down there. Hulby, an AI cofounder, can find these contacts and draft these emails for you every day.
Mistakes to skip
- Sending a generic "check out my jewelry" email with no price, offer or next step.
- Attaching big image files instead of one link to a clean photo or line sheet.
- Pitching big department stores or large influencers before you have any small wins.
- Following up five times or not at all instead of twice and stopping.

Find my first customersQuestions
How do I find boutique owners' emails?
Check the shop website's contact page, their Instagram bio, or call and ask for the buyer's name and email. Walking in with samples also works.
Should I offer wholesale or consignment first?
Lead with wholesale. Offer consignment when a shop likes the work but won't commit money upfront.
How many cold emails should I send per day?
Start with 10 well-researched emails a day. Quality beats volume when every bracket is filled specifically.
What should I put in the link?
One page with 5 to 10 clear photos, prices, materials and how to order. A free Google Drive folder or simple site page is enough.
