03:01Why existing personalization sucksThere isnt enough emphasis on the customer. People are more likely to respond to messaging that is about them. And it shows that your company cares.

05:19How to spruce up outreach emailsRefer to Robert Cialdinis principles of persuasion. Along with structured outsources, the more of these principles you incorporate into your emails, the better they'll be.
-
09:15Optimizing for repliesResponses wont always convert sales. But they can point you in the right direction, in terms of who you should be reaching out to.
-
10:22Sending multiple emailsSpread your research out over four emails. While it's okay to send 3-4 emails, youll generally know if a person is interested within the first two emails.
-
12:51ROI impacts of targeting painPositive reply rates range between 11%-32%. 5%+ is a good place for outbound automation to be.
-
14:10PainDoing pain-based research the right way is costly. Costs can go as high as 100K. However, you can work with outsourcers, and your existing customers, to cut costs while building your dataset.

16:25Why you should get feedback from existing customersIn their own words, youll hear why they decided to take a purchasing action with you. That type of feedback shows you what works and what doesnt when nurturing B2B relationships.
