FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Allocate your time into now, near future, and far future to identify true priorities. Use two-week blocks to understand where those priorities fall at any given time. When managing promotion expectations of reps, communication and clarity from you as a leader is the only way you can help them move up their place in line. Hitting numbers is table stakes, so be clear on what the above-and-beyond things are that get your reps to the front of the list. Figure out the problem that nibbles 20% percent of your day every single day and solve the entire thing before that consumes the entire 100% of your day.

Register for the Tactic Teardown on how to beat any objection in a cold call. FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Use “That’s exactly why I called.” When your prospect shares a problem or a priority that they have, make that your reason for booking a meeting and go right in for the close on the cold call. Call nine before nine, and five after five. Those early morning and evening dials can be some of the best ways to increase your connect rate with hard-to-reach prospects. After your opener, go through the parts of your pitch, but end with an open-ended question. You can either go into “That’s why we should meet” if they give you those three priorities or roll with the objection - “Let me tell you how we work alongside and supplement a recruiter.” PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Senior Business Development Manager @ Pareto Senior Account Executive @ Pareto Account Executive @ Pareto Business Development Representative @ Pareto RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Pre-research your subject for a more personalized cold call that makes the interaction intentional and human. It tells them you’ve taken the time to get to know them. Use a permission-based opener to make your prospect feel like they are choosing to speak with you. Deliver your opener with conviction, and bring energy and enthusiasm. Build this as you pre-research because if you believe it, they’ll be more likely to believe it. Execute a 3YU, aka 3 reasons that you are calling that are personal to them, and opens the door for WHY they would want to use your product.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Don't shy away from including images in your prospecting emails, particularly if you sell a visual solution. Add value with a “thinking of you” email in advance of your sales call that shows some examples of what some of their peers are doing with you or what other similar customers are doing. When you open your email using a trigger-based approach, state your observation confidently and then follow it up with an unsure tone question. Example is: “Here's what I've seen your ads look like. Have you ever tried to do X? Use intentionally boring subject lines, like “Podcast Episode” that follow the “internal camouflage” principle.
