Insights For Selling To Mark

During A Call Or A Meeting

When Cold Calling

Pattern Interrupt: A polite and formal approach, that doesn’t sound over-friendly or too aggressive makes it hard for them to say no to you.

Pace: Slow down a little bit, especially if you are fast usually. Sound like a 'calming break from the day' person.

Tone: Keep your tone calm and soothing, as if you are giving a stranger advice on a critical matter.

Tactics To Win: Use of social proof, FOMO, repeating their name

Mistakes To Avoid: Strong words, over-confidence, informal language

Making The Ask: Formally, respectfully request their time. They find it quite hard to say no (Compared to Dominant or Calculative types for eg)

Subconscious Driver: They are change-averse by default. Hence a FOMO laden pitch can jolt them into action.

Greeting: Good morning/evening Mark, how are you? This is [user_fname] at [user_companynamefirsttwowords].

Opener: You are of course busy, would it be ok for me to take 30 seconds of your time to explain why I have called today?

Introduction: My company has built an AI that predicts prospect's personality and behavior so that you can start building trust from the very first second that you meet them.

Ask: Mark, companies like [abc], [xyz] have found it to be invaluable and adopted it already, it would be ok perhaps to put 15 minutes on your calendar to share why this could be valuable for you.

Close: If you are a morning person, then how does Tues or Wed look at [time]? And your email ID is [prospect_email]?

When Writing An Email

Subject: Formal

Salutation: Yes (Something formal)

Greeting: Yes (Say something formal/usual)

Emojis/GIFs:
