How To Change The “Flavor” Of Your Sales Messaging During Covid-19

Posted April 28, 2020

Do you think that to a decision maker, most sales people sound the same?

Do you think our emails look the the same?

Cold calls?

That’s because most sales messaging centers around one flavor, and one flavor only;

“I WANT TO SELL YOU SOMETHING”

And right now, buyers are a tad sensitive to an overabundance of sales pitches!

And don’t get me wrong, I think it’s important that buyers know that we’re not looking for a bunch of buddies who never buy a damn thing;

It’s just that we aren’t changing it up enough to keep the courtship interesting.

So Instead of the same message;

Here are a few different “flavors” to try;

Send a resource to help them navigate during Covid-19

Send an idea (work from home, stretching their budget, increasing sales, doing MORE with less), etc

Introduce them to someone who can buy from them, help them etc.

Invite them to an industry event, networking event, an event your company is hosting. And yes, right now, these are virtual events thanks to the pandemic, but that shouldn’t be an excuse NOT to invite!

Ask them a question. The best way to get a response in your emails is to end your email with a question.

Send a fact, a case study, a story, an analogy to solidify a point.

Send along something fun, funny (just keep it tasteful). People need a break right now because things are WAY too f*cking serious!

Congratulate them on a win, a new product launch, your contact getting promoted, a work anniversary etc.

Wish them a happy holiday.

But here’s the thing . . .

It ISN’T business as usual right now, so;

Change it up!
