    Double your booked disco calls with Text messages/ SMS. đŸ“± 💬 🚀

    🇩đŸ‡ș In A/NZ SMS (or Text) has a read rate of 98.5% that incredibly high when you compare it to other forms of communication.
     
    Now, most people get scared when I suggest they should use SMS in their sales comms but it’s all in the finer details.
     
    Listen in to learn how to use SMS without feeling like you’re crossing the line.

    Like most things in outbound.
    It’s HOW you do it not what you do.


    ☎ If you rang someone and said exactly, “can I get a meeting” it’s not going to land well at all.

    💬 Likewise, sending a text message that says “can I get a meeting” is also going to land badly.

    âŹ†ïž âŹ‡ïž Flip your Script* and come up with a better play.
     
    Instead of using text to get your prospect to call you back move their focus onto something they would find easier to respond to.

    In this episode, I'll walk you through the best way to incorporate text into your ealry stage outreach.

    Short cut your way to trusted advisor status.

    Short cut your way to trusted advisor status.

    Everyone in sales wishes to be considered a 'trusted advisor' to their clients & prospects.

    Being considered a 'trusted advisor' means sellers can...

    • Open doors to conversations more easily
    • Are more likely to gain referrals 
    • Need to give fewer discounts
    • Expect fewer objections
    • Be ghosted less

    Today's strategy will help you build a baseline for that 'trusted advisor' role and allow you to enter into conversations with your clients and prospects at a much higher level.

    If you’re in a new sales role, have a new territory, have just been promoted, have new products to sell then ramp time can be a real drain on motivation and impact your sales results.

    So how do you quickly get a head start to being seen as a trusted advisor and having prospects keen to take meetings and calls with you?

    Well, if any of that sounds like you? Why not try out this technique that has worked for both me and my clients.

    I call it the “The advice” strategy.

    50% response rates from cold email with Jakub Zajicek.

    50% response rates from cold email with Jakub Zajicek.

    This is the future of cold outreach. Forget the sales engagement platforms that automatically send predictable email sequences. This is how I believe, you should be emailing cold prospects in 2022.

    This episode is super helpful for anyone who emails their prospects as part of their sales role.

    Jakub is the CMO and Co-Founder of Speak On Podcasts and today he joins me to talk about his process for creating excellent emails.

    Make sure you grab the link to his LinkedIn post where you can download the entire email guide. (Below)

    Impressively, Jakub has taught or systemized his team to get the same great response rates. So many times, we get to hear from someone who is killing it with a great outbound strategy BUT it doesn’t lend itself to replication.

    The fact that Jakub has been able to help his team with the same results mean his system is trainable. Sales leaders you want this model.

    Warning, it’s no shortcut, it’s a process.

    How to make video work for prospecting in 2022. Mike Pritchett CEO, Shootsta.

    How to make video work for prospecting in 2022. Mike Pritchett CEO, Shootsta.

    Are you using video as part of your outreach? 
    Are you using it for prospecting? 
    How's it working out for you?
     
    You know, despite video sounding like it should work really well
 for a lot of my clients it's simply not.

    There are a couple of reasons for that.
     
    1: The standard prospecting video format has become tired or cliched
    2: An increase in spam and scam has meant larger organizations are telling their people, don’t click on the link.
    3: Sales teams find it too difficult and too time consuming to create the video
      
    Today we are going to talk to Mike Pritchett, he is the CEO of a video vendor called Shootsta.
     
    If you'd like to be getting better results from video, then there is something in this for you.

    3 (little known) Tactics to Immediately Improve Your Calling Results

    3 (little known) Tactics to Immediately Improve Your Calling Results

    Most outbound calling advice, that I see shared today, revolves around the opening of the call, the script or perhaps the framework you should use for those calls.

    Having helped many sellers improve their calling over the years, I know, there are 3 simple tips you can use to drastically improve your calling results immediately. 

    These 3 are very often overlooked, yet they are just as important as any other part of the process. 

    In this episode, I explain, complete with examples, how if you do just 5mins of preparation you can feel more confident, stay on the call longer and be more likely you'll be negotiating with your prospect about your next steps, rather than being kicked off the call.

    The 3 areas we cover are:
    âžĄïžÂ  Outcomes
    âžĄïžÂ  Objection
    âžĄïžÂ  Next Steps

    The Best of BOSS: The 3rd Best Cold Caller in the World - Gerry Hill

    The Best of BOSS: The 3rd Best Cold Caller in the World - Gerry Hill

    The highest single number of downloads and my most popular episode ever released.
    This certainly deserves to be on the Best of the Best list. 👏  Great episode 🎙

    Life on the other side of 18million dials.

    This episode provides you with a window into the mind of a true expert. Gerry Hill is the regional VP of a company called Connect & Sell. If you’re in sales leadership or you’re a close watcher of sales tech you will know the organization is at the very front of calling technology.

    Gerry does all the talking in this one which is perfect
 because I felt SO far out of my depth I was drowning in information. In fact, It’s highly likely you will need to listen to this episode twice. I mean I train people to make calls.. and this guy is three levels above me.

    This guy walks the walk, he is the only person ever, on this podcast, to give out his mobile number as way to get in contact’ – How’s that for serious?

    The Best of BOSS. Predicable Hyper-sales performance with Chris Muddell.

    The Best of BOSS. Predicable Hyper-sales performance with Chris Muddell.

    This is a 'BEST of BOSS' episode as much for its timing as its high-quality content.
    It's the start of a new year and you're probably wondering, something like "what could I do differently in 2022 to impact my results"?

    Chris shares his routines in detail.

    • Journaling
    • Exercise
    • Gratitude
    • Family

    & more. Sure you might have a slightly different idea about your path.
    These strategies have seen Chris as the #1 performer for a decade. This is repeatable high performance.

    Sales reps who can hit their number, month after month, quarter after quarter, year after year are in short supply and high demand.
     
    Chris Muddell is a quality sales guy who I have known for some time. And he has just finished his latest quarter BACK ON TOP of his organisations' leader board for both revenue created, and meetings booked.
     
    This episode shines the light on how hyper-sales performance is achieved from someone who has done it and is doing it right now. 
     
    And when the requirement to switch to WFH hit us. Chris not only continued to succeed but he INCREASED both his first meeting numbers and his conversation rates.
     
    It's awesome when you hit your number right? 
    We've all hit a big month or a big qtr. But if we are being honest with ourselves that is not really what success is. 
     
    Today, we get a look "under the hood' of what exactly does it take to get these types of hyper-sales results in selling today.

    Best of BOSS: Sales leaders do you look fat, dumb and lazy? - James Michael

    Best of BOSS: Sales leaders do you look fat, dumb and lazy? - James Michael

    Common mistakes business leaders are making today in the employment space. James Michael.

    James is right at the forefront of sales rep recruitment, and he is seeing a real shift in today’s employment market.

    Importantly he suggests that the power of “Who is doing who a favor” has moved massively in the direction of the employee and away from the employer. Just because you have a job to fill doesn’t mean you will get good sales candidates.

    And, as reps are becoming more and more digitally enabled, they are using those skills to drill down on their multiple job opportunities to choose who might be their best leader and who has the best match for them culture wise.

    According to James, COVID-19 has created a situation where most SDR/ BDMs have multiple job options available to them.  (Certainly not what I thought).

    He says:
    There is a lack of good candidates overall
    Inside sales/ SDR/ Business Developers are in high demand
    Good reps aren’t leaving current roles
    Employers and Sales leaders are letting themselves down digitally

    Sales leaders, entrepreneurs and business owners are now under the same pressure as sellers to make sure their digital footprints are attractive to their candidates.

    Guest what? Not very many are.
    If you’re an employer and you think you might need to add staff anytime in the next 12 – 18months, you will need to listen to what James has to say.

    Thanks for listening to the Best of Social Selling Podcast.

    Best of BOSS: The most underused outbound tactic today. 👑 The LinkedIn King James Watson

    Best of BOSS: The most underused outbound tactic today. 👑 The LinkedIn King James Watson

    I've picked this episode as a 'best of' simply off the back of how good this tactic is. I genuinely wish that I had created this outbound play myself, it is truly awesome.

    James Watson shares with us how to use a PERSONALISED IMAGE in your outbound marketing. It is brilliant because...
     
    A: You can automate it if you want to. Or 
    B: You can use it manually if you want (Which is how I do it) and 
    C: it gets really great results.
     
     I have suggested this outreach technique to every team I've trained in 2021 and not one has implemented it broadly. Despite it being very easy to do.
     
     This tells me there is still a lot of opportunities for you to use this, stand out and set yourself up for good results. 

    It's completely brilliant. James Watson is a genius.

    On this week's show, I'm pleased to say we have something which is not very widely known or used.
    So you're getting in on the ground floor.
    In fact, this is probably the very first you will hear of this unique approach. 
     
    Personally, I have not heard of anybody using this anywhere else – the strategy that I'm talking about is "The LinkedIn Kings' PIM' play – Personalised Image Marketing.
     
    After listening to James, I have adopted this in a small way and started to use it and I've also started to get my clients to use it as well.
     
    I am sure that this is one of those things where the early movers, the early adopters, will get MOST of the rewards. So, don’t risk being left sitting on side lines.
     
    James Watson AKA – The LinkedIn King has an image personalisation strategy that does scale

     
    I know the 'personalisation at scale' thing is very overdone but this is very different. I can clearly see how this works.
     
    Imagine being able to send a complex image, on mass, to your leads or connections and each one had their own LinkedIn profile pic superimposed on the graphic as part of that mass outreach?
     
    Do you think you might get good engagement with this play? I know you will.
     
    James shares his strategies as well as what's working and why in this show.

    Best of BOSS: Using Instagram in your cold outreach, with Charlotte Lowrey, Uber Eats

    Best of BOSS: Using Instagram in your cold outreach, with Charlotte Lowrey, Uber Eats

    Welcome to the BEST OF BOSS series.
     Here we are going to highlight the very BEST interviews and conversations we've released across the last couple of years of running this podcast.

    This is episode easily makes it into the BEST OF category. This chat with Charlotte Lowry from Uber Eats, deserves to be in the BEST OF category because Charlotte walks us through her outbound calling method step by step and even includes how she uses Instagram to warm up her call. 

    Using Instagram in B2B sales is not something I hear about very often.
     It's well worth a listen just for that.

    Charlotte is the partnerships manager for Uber Eats in New York. Her role is to call up busy restaurants and persuade them to join Uber Eats delivery.

    I really loved chatting with Charlotte Lowrey from Uber eats and I know you’re going to get massive value from this short chat.
     
    In today's episode, we walk through Charlotte's typical routine when she is calling new business.
     
    This is a great snapshot for anyone who is not yet an expert at calling people who aren't yet thinking about doing business with you.

    "Why I moved my AEs to SDRs". How Lusha tripled their ARR in just 12 months: Assa Elder

    "Why I moved my AEs to SDRs". How Lusha tripled their ARR in just 12 months: Assa Elder

    What would you do if your sales director said we are moving most of our Account Execs into SDR roles?
    It’s a good question.
    In today's episode, we will find out what happens if you do.
     
    ASSA ELDAR is the Head of Sales at Lusha and I'm delighted to have him as a guest.
    Since our original recording of this episode, Lusha announced an additional $205Mill raise which gave them a market cap of $1.5Bill

    I love it when you get someone who is prepared to take a few risks and it pays off, they make great stories, I love it even more
 when it's a business I know and have genuine respect for.

    If you work in business development you know of Lusha, you’ve even or have tried Lusha. It's one of those staple SaaS products that SDRs, BDMs and anyone doing outbound need in their tool kit.
     
    In today's episode, we get a sneak peek behind the curtain to look into what their Product Lead Growth Strategy was, how it needed to change and the risks they took to get the business eventually firing on all cylinders.

    *** BONUS AudioBook and NLP Course link below***
    Chandell Labbozzetta is a master NLP trainer as well as a speaker and author.

    NLP is Neuro-Linguistic Programming, it is both an art and science on how we use the language of our mind to create results in our lives and behaviour.

     For example, Humans receive 11Million bits of information every second and yet, we can only process 126bits per second. So, how do we make sense of all that information and what impacts does that have on our selling styles?

    We have a predominantly unconscious mind (responsible for all behaviour, learning and change) and a conscious mind which is logical and rational. We live 90 % unconsciously and only 10% consciously 

    The unconscious mind is the domain of emotions, we know, people buy emotionally and justify logically, and yet most salespeople will leave 90% out of the conversation.

    In sales? SCORE an extra $20K pay rise, right now: Mark McInnes

    In sales? SCORE an extra $20K pay rise, right now: Mark McInnes

    The GREAT RESIGNATION is here and it's wreaking havoc on HR teams everywhere. It's also providing an incredible opportunity for sellers.

    An opportunity to get more money and also the possibility to ruin careers.
    It's a once in a decade situation, (maybe more) take advantage now or you'll miss out on the free $$$.

    But, like all things, there is a YANG to the YING.
    What goes UP must also come DOWN.

    What could be the downside to this current shortage?

    Whilst corporations are screaming for salespeople right now I'm predicting a significant swing the other way with devastating ramifications for sellers, sales leaders and customer experience.

    Am I right? Am I wrong?

    Referrals! You’re doing them wrong: Dean Mannix

    Referrals! You’re doing them wrong: Dean Mannix

    The easiest way to grow your business & create sales today, even in the middle of a pandemic is through referrals.

    Referrals are easier to talk to, easier to convert and are less likely to ask for significant discounts. Yet, we all know we are still not using them to their maximum.

    Dean Mannix is the master of making difficult things in sales easy to for us to put into action.

    He is also a sales Trainer extraordinaire and someone I really look up to in relation to sales skills.
    Dean's been instrumental in framing the way I think about selling and my hope is that some of that Dean Mannix Magic - will rub off on you the audience.
     
    Today. I wanted to talk about referrals for a couple of reasons.
     
    1 - Very broadly sellers don't leverage referrals enough.
    2 - Right now - sellers feel conflicted about whether they should be selling right now or being more empathetic.

    So lots of conversations sellers are having are with friendly customers, easy people to contact.
    This being the case, how can they try to derive a benefit from those easy conversations? - referrals.
     
    Dean argues many of us are simply doing the wrong things to get referrals.
    He shares some great ideas around how you can position yourself to be referred more often without all those negative feelings that are often associated with asking for referrals and then not getting them.

    Stop your deals slipping in the last mile: JD (John Dean)

    Stop your deals slipping in the last mile: JD (John Dean)

    Have you ever left a client meeting with a handshake deal, thinking it was done and dusted, only to later realize it was only the very start of the process and not the end?
    I know I certainly have; I also have the mental scars to prove it.

    So how do you navigate this LAST mile in the sales process when we find ourselves in these situations? Better still how do we avoid them altogether?

    JD, from Sales Director Central, is a guy who mentors sales leaders, business owners and entrepreneurs who are driving really important sales initiatives inside their organization.
     
    He says more and more salespeople are falling over at the last mile than ever before.
    In this show, JD is going to share with us some really cool things we can do to avoid making these common mistakes.

    Also, you'll get to hear about how one of our price negotiations involved a guy threatening to drive his Range Rover through our office front door if he couldn't get a $20K discount.

    Lose Your Commission Breath, Authentic Selling: Phil Gerbyshak

    Lose Your Commission Breath, Authentic Selling: Phil Gerbyshak

    One of the things I love about Phil Gerbyshak is his ability to mix both his digital selling expertise with tactical and simply stated sales tactics. Sales tactics that work well on LinkedIn, Phil is a Socially Savvy sales trainer.

    Selling today is very different from those old days of sales is a ‘numbers game’ of dial and smile and prospect manipulation.

    Buyers know it and so do sellers. At the same time, its also true we all need to generate sales to keep the corporate fires burning or to just to make sure we don’t get sacked.

    Many people find it difficult to balance these two conflicting priorities and end up too far in either direction. Either pitching too hard and too early or having lots of fluffy conversations that result in no commercial outcomes.

    In this episode Phil shares his very simple 3 x H strategy you can use to make sure you’re connecting with your buyers, having conversations, and leaving your commission breath at the door.

    This is a great episode on how to have the right sales mindset.


    Phil and I have been ‘LinkedIn’ buddies for more than 5 years. He has been on the podcast before and I’ve been on his – I invited him back not because I like him, although I do, but because he always provides some easy to execute yet valuable sales skills and he hasn’t let us down in this episode.

    BONUS Tutorial: Virtual & Digital selling: Mark McInnes

    BONUS Tutorial: Virtual & Digital selling: Mark McInnes

    Bonus POWđŸ’„ Course Content. Virtual & Digital Selling Tutorial.
     
    Let’s face it, virtual & digital Selling is here to stay. So why are salespeople so crap at it?
    After sitting on 1000’s of ZOOM calls, webinars, demos and sales calls that have completely stunk, I’ve decided to share a short action plan to help sellers lift their game when it comes to digital & virtual selling.

    We’ve all been in those situations when you expect your buyer to turn up and engage and then they turn up don’t have their video on and will barely acknowledge you.  You feel like you’re talking to yourself for the next 45mins?

    What about when some extra people turn up to your demo that you weren’t expecting?

    How can you make the most of your time and your sales efforts when selling online?

    What can we do to try and claw back some of the advantages of rapport and relationship building whilst operating online?

    Sellers, it’s time to lift your collective virtual sales game.
    Start here.
