re: Outbound Prospecting [part 11]

A poem, my dear, was all it took,

To catch the eye of a prospect on the hook.


No cold email, just heartfelt verse,

And now a response, a relationship to nurse.

This is why there have been no WR Haikus. I'm using them to prospect.

Actually, I'm not, but this is good, though we need to discuss meter.

Does this work in enterprise sales?

I`ve pulled stunts like these before but I`m not really taking that road now when I`m selling to large enterprises (10,000 employees +..)

This level of customization + creativity is just cool. Just that it will take a lot of time and would make sense if the expected ACV is good.

My god, with ChatGPT now this is like the ultimate outreach for someone who isn't good at writing personalized emails. The followup is even better.
