what's next?

There was a time when Banner Ads on the internet cost like $1000, when they were first introduced. People eventually get immune to mass marketing methods. Today a banner ad costs like a dollar.



With almost everyone in Sales (especially SDRs) using cadence tools like crazy to send mass emails for pitching their own individual products (which is apparently the best product in the entire universe), prospects are eventually going to get immune to it. I think it's already happening.



What's next?

How would we keep getting the attention we need from our prospects to make that sale?



Customized emails only? I'm all in for personalization, but cadences do make my life a bit easy tbh.

Great for appealing to the C-suite in the corner office.

Personalized content. Phone calls. Giving half a shit about the quality of work that is performed by the prospecting leg of your stools.

Our team has been seeing success with delivering hand written letters to C-levels. Huge PITA, but we've gotten 4-5 new meetings set this month alone.

Cadences never worked for me - I might have been doing them wrong too. But I would really want a lot of control on each and every reach out of mine to be able to really be satisfied by the end of the day, that I did good reachouts.
With cadences, I have had some misses.

I think very strong vustomisation in reachouts will be important to cut through the fluff. Also in person connections will be more important. The old ways will become the new ways (full circle)

Personal Content. phone call. Never mind the quality of work done by potential buyers of your stool.

Maybe pick up the phone, just a thought. I know a ton of SDRs who only email and do LinkedIn so your message has to be very appealing to them for them to respond. A cold call they just need to answer once.
