The results of my SalesGPT search regarding follow up on an intro meeting request (love!):
Based on the knowledge from Bravado members, there are several tactics you could use when following up on an introduction meeting request: - Reach out directly to the DM. If you're afraid to hurt your relationship with your initial contact your messaging should be light like the one you mentioned. Add "looking forward to connecting" and definitely staying away from asking for the meeting directly with them. - Use subject lines like “John Doe asked me to reach out”. Within the preview text (first line of email) you can say something like,“Hey Bob, had a great conversation with John and he mentioned we should connect . -insert context, personalization etc.- When the prospect follows up but doesn’t agree to a time, let them sit for a week then bump them with:“Hey Bob, have you had a chance to think this over? Really looking forward to connecting with you further.” - Grab the contact info and reach out with a "Hi I was referred to you as the person who handles XYZ by PERSON..." you have a solid warm email that has a high response rate. Boom! Meeting set. - Thank the first individual and ask for the contact info (but not waiting for it) is also not bad. Something close to #3 is the best path. - Use a template like this - Subject Line: Hey "X", "Y" Pointed me your way! Hi X, I connected with "Y" about "Z". He mentioned you are in charge of "W" and also noticed "Z" in your "LI profile, Website, etc." We have helped others achieve whatever the fuck. Would you be open to learning more? This template has helped me a lot, lmk if you use it and if you get any good results! If this happens too often, you could try talking about the elephant in the room, letting them know that many prospects do that and ask if there is a particular reason why they would like a follow-up call instead of discussing it now.
