CRISPY COPY
What’s the difference between these two cold emails?
Email A:
“Hey Josh - We help sales training companies like yours drive leads. I wanted to learn how you handle lead generation at Braun Training and show you what we’re working on. Are you available for a brief call Thursday at 3 pm EST?”
Email B:
“Hey Josh — Looks like you run cold call workshops for tech teams with 12+ reps.
Came across Pete Jones, Director of Business Development at [Company X].
He’s in the market for cold call training. They’ve hired 7 SDRs in the last 3 months and raised a $3.2M Series B in January. Imagine they want to get reps singing the same song on the phones.
Found this intel through 6sense. I have 8 more tech sales teams in the same boat that seem to fit your ICP. Interested in going over them?”
The difference?
Message A is generic.
Message B is specific, or “crispy.”
When you’re crispy, prospects secretly think, “You get me. What do you have?”
