Frequently Asked Questions

What Readers Say

Verified Purchase3 months ago

"I'd sent probably 40 cold emails before this with zero replies. Not exaggerating. Used the templates and started hearing back, not from everyone, but enough to book several calls in the first two weeks."

"The informational interview scripts are great. I used to run out of things to say after five minutes. Now I can actually hold a conversation that goes somewhere. One call led directly to a referral."

, Jessica L. · State school senior

"The LinkedIn search tricks were genuinely useful, found a bunch of alumni I had no idea about. Some of the email templates felt a little stiff for my style, but easy enough to tweak."
