One anonymized production account, six weeks, data through 12 August 2026: 1,083 unique PMs contacted, 11.4 percent reply, 10.0 percent interest, 24 resumes. Every first email used the person's background and stated salary and remote policy. Cold PM outreach is often cited in a 1 to 5 percent reply band; this page does not treat that band as a Metix study. No hire rate. Customer not named. Do not describe this account as a consumer-tech company.
## FAQ

**Is 11.4 percent reply three times the industry?**

Recruiting cold outreach to product managers is often cited in a 1 to 5 percent reply band. This account ran at 11.4 percent reply. That is more than twice the top of the cited band. Metix has not published its own industry study, so this page does not treat 1 to 5 percent as a measured benchmark.

**Why is interest to resume only 22.2 percent here?**

Product managers who say they are interested still often skip a resume step, especially when they are not looking. The other accounts that ran a landing page converted interest to resume at 45 to 50 percent. This page reports the 22.2 percent rather than averaging it away.
