A web design agency owner explains why he replaced cold calling with email automation. Using a tool called Swokei, he uploads lists of company websites and the tool analyzes them for real issues—speed, SEO, mobile responsiveness, layout and design problems—then auto-generates personalized outreach emails based on those findings.

Once set up, the system lets interested businesses come to him, freeing his time for client work and scaling the agency. A replicable AI-assisted cold-email playbook for service businesses.
