Be mindful of accounts that come camouflaged like this.

They are connected to 1 - 10 of your mutuals
They probably sent a connection and got accepted. 

First they InMail you
Then come asking for a demo in a manner no buyer/seller would ask.

I confronted this one, first he lashed out and also bowed out by deleting/deactivating his profile or probably blocked me.

He said I should switch to marketing, really?

Money is 70% the reason why I got into tech sales

I don't deny it.

But then I never let my happiness depend on money,
I'll say do the same if you can.

You'll find yourself wanting more if you allow it:

When you’re clearing $100k a year, you’ll want $300k
When you start making $300k every year, you’ll want $1M
Even when you get to that $1M mark, you'll be looking at $10M

It's almost never enough.

Money can buy you great things in life and give you extreme comfort.

But then there are also many things 
Your happiness should depend on and money can't buy them.

The solution is to find your balance.

Think otherwise?
Let me know in the CS.

Everyone's talking about sending the best cold emails.

Almost no one talks about how to respond after a prospect replies positively
This is where most outbound leaks.

Reps over-explain
Re-pitch the product
Send long paragraphs.

You don’t need another pitch
You need to respond fast, short, and simple.

Here’s a simple template I use.

"Hey Sophie,

Thank you so much for the response, are you available Tuesday at 10am or Thursday at 2pm EST?

And if it's earlier here's my calendar link."

It's simple and straightforward
If you want, you can also send the agenda after the meeting is booked.

Interest doesn’t need nurturing.

How are you replying when someone says yes?

Inspo from 🦾Eric Nowoslawski

I was building a list for a campaign last week.

Target accounts were solid
But something felt off.

When I cross-checked the headcounts of a few companies, the numbers didn’t add up.

If a company has 120 employees,
Why am I only seeing 70?

That gap is where pipeline dies.

It’s not because you didn’t target right
It’s because you never saw the other half of the room.

So I reran the same accounts using the new FullEnrich 𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 

They rolled out this month, where you can build a list end-to-end instead 
of stitching tools together.

- Same filters
- Same companies
- But a different reality.

More of the org chart showed up
I can now see all the decision makers in a company 
And their updated current titles without switching tools.

It became full coverage.

Before you touch your copy, run your top accounts
Through the new FullEnrich search and see who you might be missing.

How complete is your coverage right now?

There are many factors behind a good cold email campaign
If you want replies, you'll need to stack the odds up front.

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 5 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐈 𝐫𝐮𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠:

1️⃣ Offer:
If you have a mouth-watering offer, you’ll naturally attract interested leads.

2️⃣ Messaging:
That offer needs to be translated clearly
If a 4th grader can’t understand it, it’s probably too complicated.

3️⃣ Signals + Timing
Outbound today is about reaching out at the right moment
Imagine selling an EOR software and you see a company expanding internationally. Boom!

4️⃣ Deliverability
Even the best message won’t matter if nobody sees it
You have to make sure your emails land in the inbox.

5️⃣ Data
Data is the air we breathe in outbound.
Wrong contact, wrong title, wrong email, and the whole campaign suffers.

That's why I use prospeo.io to find 
Up-to-date people data before anything goes out.

Emails are triple-verified and 
Re-checked continuously with a 7-day refresh cycle.

Missing even one of these ruins your campaign
But missing the last one ends it.

Which of these do you think most teams overlook?
