The Cold Email Tech Stack We Use at Leadamax (Full Breakdown)
Cold email isn’t just about writing a message and hitting “send.” If you want high open rates, consistent positive replies, minimal bounces, and zero spam issues, you need a bulletproof tech stack.

1. Sending Platform: Smartlead.ai
Your cold email software is your engine. After testing everything from Instantly to Lemlist, Smartlead is our go-to. Why?
Handles large-scale sending with ease
Powerful automation
Great API and advanced workflows
Built-in warm-up and smart rotation
If you want to scale fast and have flexibility, go Smartlead. If you prefer a simple UI, Instantly works too.
2. Email Verification: MillionVerifier
Never skip this.
Clean data = higher deliverability and fewer bounces. We use MillionVerifier to categorize emails as:
Valid → Safe to send
Catch-All / Invalid → We send catch-alls to Scrubby.io for extra processing or save them for later
This ensures our bounce rate stays below 3% — critical for long-term inbox placement.
3. Personalized Video at Scale: Sendspark

4. Automated Appointment Handling: Hot Hawk

5. Data Extraction: Apollo.io
The core of your outreach is the lead list.
We plug in company domains from scrapeamax and from which we can scrape unlimited lead lists for less than coffee budget then into Apollo, then filter by:

If Smartlead is the engine, Make.com is the gearbox.

Anything else

7. Email Infrastructure: Premium Inboxes
Here’s what we avoid: private SMTPs or sketchy resellers.
We stick to vendors of Google Workspace and Outlook mailboxes — clean, trusted, and respected by spam filters.
If you're on a budget or even if you have tons of cash still use Premium Inboxes and they are super affordable and deliverability is just PERFECT.
