Vin used the number 282 to start a presentation, which was the number of LMS providers on G2 crowd, and the person who guessed the number correctly received a bottle of wine.  Attach discount percentages to levers so prospects have control over how they can buy themselves a discount.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 Download Vin's 5 Emails from Prospecting to Close FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Pick 5-10 accounts per week and focus all of your energy on them. That might look like sending emails Monday and Wednesday, then going multichannel on Friday. Use email as your hub and other channels as your spokes with your CTA on the other channels pointing back to your email. The email channel can get flooded; get creative with other channels like Twitter. Vin was able to book a meeting off of a backward jump shot. Use email to keep threading throughout your sales cycle. One way to do this is through direct mail.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Start your demos by setting the scene. Orient your buyer as to who they are in the demo and what they are doing in their day. If you get a mild “yes” at the end of the demo (e.g. “it could be interesting, I want to debrief internally”), use timeline and sales process steps to see if they’re willing to work to take a step forward. When asking for power, make it us vs. them. Align the timeline to close with their best interest in mind, not yours (e.g. Get them excited about more time to implement means a much better customer experience for them).

Filter time-consuming sequences in your SEP and review the people included. Categorize your sequences to prioritize opportunities effectively. Segment people into immediate opportunities, helpful but not immediate, and irrelevant. Standardize your value proposition based on persona to streamline your process. Use templates and snippets for personalization triggers while keeping the core sequence consistent. Keeping a healthy population of overdue tasks is good for prospecting momentum. Avoid letting tasks get more than 2-3 days overdue, but embrace the benefits of always having something to do.

Use these 3 common PLG (product-led growth) triggers to engage freemium users: sign-ups, increased usages, and multiple users on one account. Don’t immediately sell your roadmap. Instead, find customers who are 80% aligned with the vision and use the roadmap to bridge the 20%. If you’re selling early-stage, focus on the early adopters / innovative buyers.
