The key to mastering the cold email is keeping it short, to the point and personalized. No one wants to read a mountain of text. However, if you draw them in using your value proposition, highlight something they are proud of (like a new launch, a presentation they did, or something they are working on etc.) and demonstrate how you can solve their pain points, you will capture their attention and gain their trust.
Note: Depending where you are in the world cold emails might not always be legal. For example, Canadians are protected under the CASL (Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation), but in the USA cold emails are allowed as long as you follow CAN-SPAM guidelines.
