Sending An Email To A Prospect? Good Luck!

Posted September 17, 2015

email 3

Most emails are DOOMED at the subject line!

Do you have any idea, how many of those emails you’re sending to potential, clients go UNREAD?

Care to guess!

Gold star if you said “60-80%”

Yep, open rates are only about 20%-40% . . . and that’s on a good day and that’s only the first obstacle!

Now if you’re fortunate enough to have your email opened, they are going to scan it quickly to see if there’s anything of value.

There’s nothing in it that captures the recipient’s interest, there’s a whole lotta talk about the rep’s widget, and endless blah, blah, blah!

Sadly, most emails, will go to the land of the deleted within seconds of opening them!

And with 250-350+ emails a day being sent and received by the C-Level, it’s really easy for you to get lost in that sauce!

And yet, as sales professionals, aside from the phone, guess which platform we typically embrace?

So I have to ask you . . .

If you know this is what you’re up against . . .

What are you doing to get better?

Maybe It’s Time To Admit Something . . .

Maybe it’s time to do something that most people struggle with . . .

Admitting that you could use a little help!

I have an entire session dedicated to emails that ROCK in our upcoming How To Hunt More Effectively course.

We’re also going to be talking about cold calls, direct mail, social selling, referrals, creative door openers, traditional networking and a little over 100+ ideas to help you kick ass at a higher level.

We launch next week but if you’d like, I’d be happy to send you a pre recorded version of the email session if you enroll today.

Once you enroll, email me and let me know that you’d like the pre recorded email session. This way you can begin your Jedi training today!
