Mary was a Content Specialist at Woodpecker. Because of her inquisitive nature and curiosity, she quickly became our Quora, Twitter and LinkedIn expert.
Not so long ago, I shared with you how our outbound sales team searches for prospects on Quora and what they write in an email. Today, I'd like to present you one of our webinars, and at the same time, teach you more about GDPR.
A while back I wrote a blog post about taking care of the way you present your brand online before you start an email outreach campaign. In this one, I wanted to build on that idea. I prepared a little guide for you on strengthening your brand by working hard on your social media profiles.
It's time for another tool in our Prospect List Building Tools series. This time I review a tool called UpLead. Its founder and CEO, Will Cannon, was kind enough to answer all my questions about the tool and how to use it. Let's read the article to find out more about UpLead.
List building is the outreach phase when we should learn as much as we can about our prospects so that we know what to put in our cold email copy. But what if we don't know what type of information to look for besides simple facts, such as company name, size, the number of employees, etc.? How to structure the research process to squeeze out the most of it?
Most of you use more than one tool while doing outbound. You qualify leads in your favorite CRM, store the info about your prospects in Google Sheets, schedule meetings in Calendly, etc. Managing multiple apps means that you have different pieces of info scattered all over the apps. To keep the info up to date in every app, you need to manually update it in each app.
Most cold email senders craft their campaigns with a view to acquiring new business relations. They commit all their efforts to planning a new cold email campaign. They spend a long time on precise targeting, perfecting their email copy and taking care of impeccable deliverability. In the end, they do indeed achieve a very high open rate of their email campaign, one that would amaze even a well-seasoned cold email sender. Yet the reply rate to their campaigns is very poor. How is that possible?
