Out of the three, the most tricky to get is the last one. You can improve website conversion rates by running A/B tests. You may encourage people to leave you testimonials with an email plan.

You’re probably familiar with the concept of an inbound sales funnel, which is basically the journey your customers take from the moment they hear about your brand to the sign-up. The funnel is usually divided into three stages. The top of the funnel is the broadest stage that includes anyone who comes across your brand. Yet only the ones who are interested in engaging more with your brand move down the funnel towards conversion. Your role is to fuel your page visitors’ interest and optimize their journey as much as possible, so the right leads are attracted and nurtured down the funnel until they make a purchase. The concept of a funnel can be copied to your outbound outreach too. Keep reading to find out how to create a cold email sales funnel in three steps.

When was the last time you actually talked to your customers? I don't mean a sales call or a demo. I mean actually talking about their business, your business, and how the two virtually affect each other. Our Outbound Sales team has just finalized their 3.5-month long project of customer interviews. Last week, they presented the results to the whole Woodpecker team. That inspired me to write about how you can do it as well at your SaaS company. So here it goes! See how to carry out customer interviews and what you can learn from talking to your clients.
You may already know why you should warm up a domain before hitting the ‘send’ button and how to do it, and what to do when your domain reputation has gone downhill. But to clear any doubts that may still arise in the curious minds of cold email senders, I thought it’d be a good idea to collect the most common domain questions that our users ask us. So, without further ado, here they are – check out the answers to some of the most common domain questions.
A lot has been said about the importance of face-to-face communication when trying to connect with business partners or potential customers. That's why we attend various conferences, meet-ups, and networking events. It's all in the name of forging strong relationships that will push our businesses forward. Networking works perfectly for that, I must admit.
