"Cold calling" emails are color blind. A good product is a good product, no matter the color of the email sender. The OP's point was to "get out there and sell", which also is a color blind message.
Except it's been shown over and over again that even something as innocuous as your name can invoke inherent bias. For example, see https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/news/5494/black-sound... for a study comparing certain names and how they suggest a more or less muscular/aggressive person.
Then change the name in your email. You're missing the point of the OP though - NOT emailing people will lead to 0 sales. Emailing people MAY lead to unexpected sales.
People make all sorts of impressions on a person just by their name, or many other signals (such as email address, the time of day it was received, et cetera).
