Reachy.ai

Ever wondered how to easily laser-target the right people on LinkedIn? While access to anyone or company LinkedIn followers is quite restricted, there’s a golden method that’s flying under the radar: scanning posts from key people and companies. 💡 Here’s why it works: When people engage with posts, they’re showing genuine interest in topics relevant to their needs. This makes them prime candidates for outreach. Instead of casting a wide net, you can focus on those already paying attention. 🔎 How do you find these hidden gems? Simply keep track of post comments and reactions on profiles or companies that cater to your ideal audience. These engaged individuals are much more likely to respond and convert into real business opportunities. ✨ Sorry, Michel Lieben 🧠 from ColdIQ – your audience is gold! But seriously, tapping into the conversations happening in your network can yield some of the most qualified leads for many Sales/AI businesses. If you want to receive: 1️⃣ A custom list of followers from an influencer followed by your target audience 2️⃣ 1-month free on the Reachy Scale-Up Plan (includes unlimited LinkedIn accounts & contacts) 3️⃣ Dedicated support to help run your campaign successfully Simply like + comment with FOLLOW (must be connected), and I'll send you the full package! 🚀 Let me know how it works for you, and let's scale your outreach together! 💪 #LeadGeneration #LinkedInHack #ColdOutreach #TargetedProspecting

🚀 How I Gained 50 Users in Less Than 24 Hours—at $0 Cost When launching a business, your first goal should be finding users who can provide valuable insights to help improve your product. These users aren’t necessarily your future customers but rather a group who can help grow your product and audience—your early adopters. A common misconception, often due to the "Crossing the Chasm" Moore Model, is that early adopters will become your future customers. But in reality, your early-stage users are there to help you refine your product through daily use and honest feedback, even if they will never pay for it. The value you get from people are: 💡 Insights: You need users to engage with your product and provide feedback. 💰 Money: You need funds to make your product even better. I recently ran an experiment to see if Reachy’s audience consists of Lead Generation experts or early-stage B2B founders (My advice: Do it regularly to better understand your users and customers) While there's some bias due to the "Free" effect, this exercise gave me insights on refining our sales motion strategy. I conducted an A/B test on Reddit: 👉 Offered 50 Free Licenses to Lead Generation Experts. 👉 Offered 50 Free Licenses to B2B SaaS Founders. The results were clear within 24 hours... Check out the Reddit post: https://lnkd.in/eVRc6hqX #startups #B2B #productmarketfit

I sent the same LinkedIn message every year for 3 years—here’s what I learned... I targeted different people but always Lead Generation experts in the same countries: In 2022, 42% of people replied to my message. In 2023, only 28% replied to the same message. In 2024, just 6% responded. 🚨 Outbound isn’t dead—the rules have just changed. The outbound game has shifted faster than I expected. Too many people are doing LinkedIn automation wrong, just like what happened with email—saturated and irrelevant. There’s a gap between what “experts” recommend and the reality. 👉 In 2022, personalization was enough to build proximity with prospects—but that no longer works. 👉 In 2023, timing outreach with signals was enough—but not anymore. 👉 In 2024, the rules have changed. Outreach is now about building genuine relationships, and be patient... **Here’s what to focus on:** ↳ Keep it short (not necessarily personalized) ↳ Don’t push—start with a simple, unassuming message ↳ Offer something that people value for free (time, help, expertise, support) ↳ Don't expect anything in return, but reward will come ↳ No catch (even if people will doubt about it) Outbound is increasingly linked to your inbound strategy: ↳ Outreach and talk to people to know your audience (What Paul Graham called "Do Things that don't scale" but when the door is open...) ↳ Post content to share your insights and scale your reach **My takeaway:** Start by reaching out individually to learn, then post content as a way to give back and attract people. Everything else will follow... In my next post, I’ll share a benchmark between 3 message sequences and what works for me in 2024 💜 #OutboundStrategy #B2BSales #NoFOMO

In my 5 years of developing outreach expertise by making Reachy, I've witnessed many changes... In today’s B2B landscape, selling has become increasingly challenging. Decision-makers are inundated with: ↳ Spammy ads ↳ Irrelevant outreach messages ↳ Fake AI personalization ↳ Empty "Spray and Pray" campaigns that offer no real value ------ The market is crowded with agencies that overpromise and underdeliver, casting a shadow over the entire industry. As a result: ↳ Trust in service providers is at an all-time low ↳ Standing out is harder than ever ↳ Selling B2B services has become an uphill battle for many The hard truth is: Directly pitching to cold prospects just doesn't work like it used to. The market is saturated, and trust is in short supply. Success in B2B today hinges on building genuine relationships and earning trust before you introduce your solutions. This shift requires a change in mindset and approach: ↳ From selling to serving ↳ From pitching to providing real value ↳ From being a salesperson to becoming a trusted advisor ↳ This is where Reachy.ai can make a difference. ----------- Imagine creating a "Trust Bridge" that prospects cross before they even book a call with you. Outreach works when: ↳ Introduce your expertise - Prospects are already warmed up ↳ Propose your help - They’ve already received value from you ↳ Share your expertise though valuable content - They already trust you and see you as an expert ↳ Let them ask more about your service before you do - They know what you offer and how you can help Let Reachy.ai help you book more qualified meetings, build authentic relationships, and earn the trust of your prospects. Following these simple rules, with Reachy, you’ll sell faster, easier, and more effectively, breaking through revenue ceilings that once seemed out of reach and: ↳ Build predictability into your client acquisition process with less effort ↳ Gain a growth partner who genuinely cares and consistently goes the extra mile ↳ Close more high-ticket deals in less time, or you don’t pay Need help? Please DM and I will be keen to review and give you some advice on your outreach strategy for free 🚀 #B2BSales #LeadGeneration #SalesAutomation #AI

🔍 How I Maximize Outreach on LinkedIn 🚀 LinkedIn is known as the most effective outreach channel, and I have to admit it took me time to understand how to optimize it. Here's how I approach LinkedIn cold outreach: 1️⃣ Invite People to Connect 2️⃣ Get a Reply from Your Target No rocket science so far, right? Unlike email, there's no bounce or spam folder issue on LinkedIn; you're sure your message will land in your prospect's inbox once you're connected. So, I focused on four key steps: 🔹 How to scale the number of daily connections? 🔹 How to maximize the connection rate? 🔹 How to maximize the reply rate? 🔹 How to maximize the action rate (e.g., getting the prospect to install Reachy)? To achieve the first two goals, I managed LinkedIn accounts auto-rotation. This means automatically using multiple LinkedIn accounts, which makes sense when centralizing this task for a global team. From the beginning, I handled multiple LinkedIn accounts in one campaign and let Reachy switch from one account to another to maximize the number of daily connections, considering LinkedIn's limitation of around 80 per day per account. By scaling the team, we can achieve unlimited daily connections or DMs, which is a game changer. For the daily connection rate, I improved the auto-rotation system by letting Reachy auto-rotate from one LinkedIn account to another after X configurable days if the connection status is pending. This trick increased our connection rate by 25% for a team of two members. In other words, if the prospect does not accept the connection request from Chris, Reachy will automatically ask Alex to invite the same prospect. Achieving a 63% connection request acceptance rate in a team is a significant milestone. We’ve now integrated this capability into Reachy, and I invite you to experience it for yourself! Stay tuned, new tricks coming in a next post... Check it out at https://reachy.ai 💜 #AI #Sales #Prospection

🔍 How to Find Professionals Around Your City on LinkedIn? We're seeing more people using LinkedIn to find new customers, including those looking for local business connections. This is a big step forward in LinkedIn's reach. 🌍 Two Main Trends in Social Selling on LinkedIn: 👩💼👨🔧 Profession Representation 2011: 100M Users, mainly high-level professionals in big organizations, great to access to decision makers 2018: 500M Users, across all responsibility levels, great to access to end-users 2024: 1B Users, covering all professions, now you can access to students, plumbers, electricians, firefighters to bakers....👨🍳👩🚒 📍 Network Localization 2011: Worldwide network. 2018: Nation-wide network. 2024: Regional networks are emerging. It's finally not a surprise that small businesses are relying on LinkedIn and asking for local search functionality. So to support local businesses, we've enhanced LinkedIn's search capabilities to meet this need. 🛠️ #indiehacker #leadgeneration #sales #AI

Many people treat LinkedIn like an emailing channel. ❌ And that’s why they fail… They incorporate LinkedIn into their omni-channel prospecting sequences. I see people every day asking me how to improve their reply rate. We live in a connected era where community is king in business. 👑 Being part of a community comes with responsibilities and duties, such as trust and respect. 🤝 Back in the 2000s, the golden sales rule was to send at least 7 email follow-ups to maximize the reply rate. 📧 It was all about spamming people to keep your email on top of their inbox. Not much has changed since then. We've started personalizing messages, qualifying our targets, and even timing our outreach for maximum impact. But we still put people into prospecting sequences to multiply touchpoints and chase that elusive reply. 📈 Today, the real metric is maximizing interactions between you and your prospect. If you send 7 messages and get only one reply, that’s just 1 interaction. To win in the outbound game, you need to maximize interactions and foster conversations by being respectful, non-selly, adding value, showing empathy, listening, and ultimately being human. 🤖 AI is a valuable asset for making connections and sending timely, kind messages. It can help you engage when people like your post, share insights, or accept your connection requests. We use Reachy to automatically reply to people who accept your connection request. Just one reply from them increases your interaction count by 1. Building relationships is a long-term game, and LinkedIn tends to push your posts toward those with whom you interact. 🕵️ So, when would you like to be messaged by someone you don’t know? And how many times? Reachy is designed to make this simple, making people feel like they know you personally. That’s why outbound and inbound are closely connected, but that’s another story...
