Ask HN: Best cold email practices for MVP-stage startups?

What have you found to work when sending cold emails to potential customers as a new, still incomplete product startup? I've found that taking the more humble, "hey we're still developing it but we'd love for you to try it" to have more success on Reddit & Twitter. We've been trying it on email but seems like it's not working. We're getting 30% open rate but no responses. We're going to test the more hard sell, value-prop based approach but I wanted to ask here to help further pinpoint if it's a messaging or lead-quality issue. Thanks
