Cold out reach via email. It was so useful we pivoted and now have a product to help with it.

Your channels are dependent on your product and market you're trying to serve. For us it's b2b enterprise customers in the United States. So email works well. If you are trying to sell to developers, or union carpenters in venezuela its going to be different per case.

Any email sequencing tools that are free? I looked at clay, instantly and others but damn they are super expensive for early stage startups.

Clay is expensive for sure. To clarify, it’s more of a data enrichment tool than a sequencing tool.
