Huge Announcement 👉 Our next course is here: The Reply Method for Double Digit Replies Learn more + get free toolkits here: https://www.30mpc.com/course/cold-email-course What you need to know: A great cold email system gets you more replies, from better prospects, in less time — and it works even when you're not perfect. That’s what this course teaches: how to write cold emails that feel personal, without spending hours customizing. How to craft offers that actually get responses. How to sequence, follow up, and stand out in crowded inboxes. Teams that master this skill consistently book more meetings than teams that don’t — no matter the industry. If you don’t have a system, cold email becomes a grind with diminishing returns. If you do, it becomes your most consistent pipeline lever. — We analyzed 85 million cold emails with Gong to find what actually gets replies in 2025. In this episode, Nick and Jason break down the exact cold email structure, CTAs, and personalization tactics top reps are using to book more meetings. 🎙️ ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Use The Reply Method framework: 4-sentence emails under 100 words outperform longer messages—make it skimmable, mobile-first, and frictionless to reply. Avoid pitch language: Buzzwords and product-first copy reduce replies by up to 57%. Lead with problems your buyer already cares about, then layer in social proof. Personalize to the company or activity: Personalization = 5x replies, but not all types are equal—company and activity-based personalization outperform personal trivia. Offer something valuable in your CTA: Replace “Are you free?” with a compelling offer—benchmarking, expert insights, or 1:1 value that justifies a meeting even if they don’t buy.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Don’t just set an agenda. Use PPO (purpose, plan, outcome) to set clear expectations for you and your prospect. Avoid deep-diving into features until you've established “why change?” and “why now?”. Show up to your discovery with a theory about their pains and your solutions. Don’t just start peppering questions. Soften the CTA with “would you be open to” instead of heavier asks before the customer is ready to dive deep. RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Get ahead of every executive conversation by first prepping with a champion pre-call. Use Slack channels for champion collaboration and driving deals to close. Before going into an executive demo, make sure the priorities you collected from discovery are aligned with the executive's.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS When you’re asking questions don’t just ask the question. Say, “the reason I’m asking is because (insert problem). Go into a discovery call with a hypothesis of the problem you can solve. As you prove it out, give little proof points (case studies, stories) so it’s not an interrogation. When demoing, demo 80/20. 20% of what matters most spend 80% on that. Bonus: stack your demo with what makes your product different as opposed to what everyone has. Before giving concessions or discounts, narrow the scope (number of seats, commercial terms, service term, number of years in the deal) and get everything on the table before you start giving any sort of concessions.

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Go back to “home plate” and re-anchor to top priorities when dealing with demo “nitpicks”. Use “To what extent” to turn any close-ended question into an open-ended question. Turn your demo into more discovery with (a) HOW does this compare? (b) WHERE does this fit in your workflow? (c) WHO would use this? Seek out hesitation. “Based on what you’ve seen today, what would prevent us from moving forward?” PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Lead Enablement Manager @ CB Insights Enterprise Account Executive @ Sentieo Sr. Account Executive & Team Lead @ Axial Sr. Associate @ Deloitte RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

Use one team to prove your business case, then build it out for the others. Don't enter a PoC unless you have security, legal, etc. wrapped or in progress already. Don’t fixate on just a person’s title. Someone with tenure may have as much or more political capital than those with a newer, higher title.
