Opt In | Ep. 32

You’ve sent 4 or 5 emails, called a handful of times, and shot over a LinkedIn connection request…but the prospect isn’t responding to anything.

They must have been eaten by an alligator, right?!

The “breakup email” is a touchy subject. Sometimes you just need an answer – yes or no – to help you know if keeping this prospect in your cadence is worth everyone’s time. Leaning on humor and frictionless responses (give me a 1, 2, or 3) can work wonders.

AJ and Alex give their take on breakup emails – both good and bad. They cover where reps go wrong, what can go right, and what some of your alternatives are.

Opt In to prioritizing value over gimmicks and playing the long game with your prospecting.
