I’ve tried a bunch of email account providers and domains, and here’s what I found: quality is everything when it comes to the stack you’re using for cold email.

👉 Premium Inboxes

The best part?

You can land your first lead in 12 hours, as the email accounts are set up in 12 hours or less.

And you don’t need to worry about the technical stuff. From SPF and DKIM to DMARC and MX records, Premium Inboxes handles it all so you can focus on what matters—sending emails and closing deals.

I’ve found you can’t generate leads if your emails aren’t landing in the primary inbox.

And you can’t scale your outreach if your inbox provider takes 24+ hours to reply—or worse, ghosts you after you’ve made the payment.

Here’s the full tutorial for setting up your accounts:

1. Sign Up: Head to Premium Inboxes and pick the plan that fits your outreach goals.
2. Set Up a Domain: Use a dedicated domain for cold email (not your main one) to protect your reputation. Premium Inboxes will configure everything for you.
3. Sequencer: Mark the cold email-sending platform (sequencer) you’re using. Everything will be set up there so can start sending in 12h or less. Speed is everything in lead gen.
4. Warm It Up: Start warming up your inbox right away for better deliverability. Premium Inboxes integrates with all major warm-up tools or provides guidance to make it easy.

And just like that, you’re ready to launch high-performing cold email campaigns!
