Cold Email Lead Generation Setup with Instantly

Requirements

  • Instantly subscription: $97/month plan
  • Premium inboxes: 10-15 inboxes
  • Warm-up period: 2 weeks before sending

Volume Limits Per Inbox

  • New leads per day: 5 per inbox
  • Follow-ups per day: 5 per inbox
  • Warming emails per day: 10 per inbox

Why Multiple Inboxes?

You need 10-15 inboxes because:

  1. You'll get banned/blacklisted by Google if you spam from one inbox
  2. Distributes risk across multiple sending domains
  3. Allows scaling volume while maintaining deliverability

Setup Steps

  1. Purchase premium inboxes
  2. Connect to Instantly
  3. Enable warming for 2 weeks minimum
  4. Configure sending limits per inbox
  5. Create campaign sequences
  6. Start with low volume and scale up
