The constant effort of sending out messages, coupled with low response rates, can lead to burnout for those doing the outreach. Poorly executed outreach can damage the sender's reputation and create a negative association with the brand. Generic messages that don't address the recipient's specific needs or interests are often seen as a waste of time.
