Seamless.AI provides real-time researched and validated email and contact data for millions of contacts. You may be wondering if there are any best practices to follow when doing cold email outreach. Our friends at Woodpecker have created a very useful Guide on Best Practices for cold email outreach, so we wanted to share some of those with our users. 

You can find the full article from the Woodpecker team here:
