How To Book Meetings With The CEO/COO/CFO ... Feeling stuck booking meetings higher up the food chain? You’re not alone. Many struggle to break through the noise - and it's getting more and more difficult But don’t worry... I’ve got you covered Some key pointers: > Personalisation is King Tailor your emails to show genuine interest in your recipient’s business. Not the usual 'Hey FIRSTNAME, great post on LinkedIn' nonsense. Show a genuine desire to help and connect on a level AI can't. > Perfect Your Structure - Short - Avoid filler-words/fluff - Less than 75 words long - Explain the cost of inaction - A clear solution to a problem - Only tackle 1 pain in each email - 90% about the prospect, 10% about YOU, A well-structured email with a compelling CTA can make all the difference. Focus on two things... clarity and impact. > Follow-Up Strategy: Persistence pays off. Most responses come after the second or third follow-up. Hence, don't give up too soon. A counter-idea to remember... :> Rather than spend so much time trying to get noticed, invest time in becoming great at what you do. Alex Hormozi said it best: "Getting rich is an outcome. Getting better is an input" Yes, you want to make the sale. But stop trying to make bank and focus on getting better with each rep. Key Insights: ▶ 1 in 50: The ratio of cold calls that get picked up. Therefore, leave effective voicemails and follow up with an email. ▶ Multiple Decision Committees: B2B sales cycles are complex. Hence, tailor your follow-ups to address this complexity. ▶ 4 Key Metrics: Focus on revenue, profit margins, return on assets, and speed to value in C-level discussions. These are the metrics that matter. > Closing > Build a genuine bond and stop being a corporate robot > Sales is predominantly listening with intent > Talk less, listen more. > Avoid cliches and canned answers. Hear what people say and adjust your answers to their needs. Use systems for responses, rather than scripts to real off. > See objections as feedback > Aim to help, not sell. Hope it helps 💪 #Sales #B2B #ColdEmail #SalesStrategy #BusinessGrowth #BusinessDevelopment
