In this episode, Jeremy and Jack discuss the evolving landscape of email deliverability and why it's no longer a major concern for most sales teams. They explore how a shift in focus is needed toward refining your list and message rather than obsessing over deliverability, as the technology has already solved many of those issues.

Key Notes

  • Why deliverability is no longer a major issue in 2025 due to advancements in AI and automated inbox switching.
  • The importance of having a quality message and a laser-focused list over relying on volume.
  • Real-life examples comparing high-volume campaigns to low-volume, high-targeted campaigns, demonstrating the effectiveness of focused outreach.
  • The shift from optimizing deliverability to improving your outreach strategy, emphasizing smaller, well-targeted lists.
  • The role of AI in list cleaning, ensuring the right companies and people are being contacted.
  • Message optimization strategies, including using social proof and adjusting the ask to increase engagement.
  • Personalization debates—whether AI-based personalization improves response rates or if it’s better to keep things simple and direct.

Jeremy and Jack wrap up by encouraging sales teams to prioritize understanding their market, focusing on the quality of their leads, and creating targeted outreach strategies. They remind listeners that deliverability is no longer a bottleneck—it's all about refining the message and the list
