5 Ways To Send A BETTER Sales Email

Posted December 21, 2016

Many of us don’t appreciate the CRAZY level of noise we have to navigate through as sales professionals.

For starters, the average person sends and receives 110 emails per day and that number dramatically increases at the C-Level!

The average person is exposed to over 3,000 advertising messages a day.

We consume 34 gigabytes (100,000 words) each day. That’s a novel and a half a day, in case you need a visual and the equivalent of reading War and Peace every 4 days if you’d like a more vivid up visual!

We are interrupted an average of 7 times each hour and it takes an average of 23 minutes to get back on task.

We check our smartphones anywhere from 46 times a day to (wait for it) over 150. I might be somewhere north of that number 🙁

Our attention span is now 8 seconds which is dramatically down from where it was a century ago (20 minutes). But then again, people didn’t have smartphones welded to the palm of their hand back then.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why most sales emails NEVER have a chance!

Your potential client loves to scan and most emails don’t pass the scan!

Here are a few ideas that will dramatically improve your odds;

  1. Take the time to do some basic research BEFORE sending that email. When you research, look for “triggers”. “Triggers” are things going on in your potential client’s world that would dramatically improve their need for your product or service.
  2. Use your research to LEAD with something about your potential client INSTEAD of something about YOU! Your potential client really doesn’t give a sh*t about you! At least not during a preliminary scan of the email. Start with the subject line and make it about THEM. Open your email with something about THEM and then tie it in with how you might be able to help.
  3. Start thinking like someone who gets a shitton of emails. If that were you, and you opened an email that looked like it was going to take you the better part of your adult life to read it, would you read it or move on?
  4. Instead of a call to action, consider a Reverse Call To Action. A reverse call to action lets them know what to expect from YOU next. Example “I’m going to give you a quick call on Thursday morning at 8:45 am”. But there’s a way to dramatically improve this technique and I’m going to be sharing it during our Emails That ROCK webinar!
