We recently hired a SDR manager, leading a team of 10 sdrs. His job is to schedule 30 intro/discovery calls for my AEs.
In Nov we had 20 calls scheduled, 10 no show, 2 cancelled right after we sent the invite, 8 happened but none moved forward as they were not interested in buying now.. 2 moved to future prospects out of these 8.
While checking in for no show and cancelled, i learner that his strategy is to cold call the prospects, make them agree for a tentative meeting and that's it. Further discussion with him, I got to know that he had good amount of business with this practice. So I want to see how far this goes but I haven't done anything like this before ( tentative invite) My strategy is always qualify a bit, send a confirmed invite and set up a sequence so that they receive some valuable insights before the meeting.
Anyone here have used tentative invite strategy?
