Below you can find several examples that can be used as starting-points for building out a comprehensive content library for sales reps.

Nice to meet you

Hi {1},

I'm Bob Jones, Account Executive with Ice Juice, Inc. and we {2}.

I recently came across your Product Marketing Life podcast episode and I couldn’t agree more with your view that automation will play an essential role in the future of sales enablement.

You mentioned that your sales enablement team at {3} is fairly new and that you’re tasked with onboarding and training dozens of new international hires every month, taking up a significant amount of your time.

We work with many companies such as {4} to help them manage and streamline their onboarding process - on average, our solution increases retention rates by {5}% and lowers time-to-productivity by {6}%.

I would love to share some further information on how companies in {7} use our solution to cut down on manual processes and prioritize value-adding activities.

Do you have time for a 10-minute chat, either {8}, or {9}?

Thanks,

Bob

Nurturing

Nurturing a lead can take on many forms, but one of the most effective ways to engage is by sharing compelling content that helps build brand awareness and credibility. Emails should be tailored to reflect relevant pain points or areas of interest for the targeted lead.

Overcoming objections

Some of the most common objections include pricing, product fit, competitor solutions, and decision-making capability, all of which require a slightly different approach. However, the basic template to handling objections is the same - acknowledgment, follow-up questions, and further information or alternatives offered. Here is a basic template for dealing with pricing objections - the key is to avoid offering dollar value discounts, while at the same time maintaining flexibility to work with their needs.

Answers to your questions

Hi {1},

Thanks for your email. I understand your concerns about our pricing structure, and I’m happy to work with you to bring it closer to your numbers.

To help us figure out a solution that makes it work for all of us, I wanted to ask whether there are certain elements of the overall package that didn’t make as much sense to your team? We can be flexible in terms of adding and removing features from the package to make it a perfect fit.

Here are three alternatives for you to consider:

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

Let me know what you think - it’d be great to jump on a call to discuss this in further detail; which of the following would suit you best? {2}, {3}

Thanks,

Bob

Winback

Sometimes, you can find yourself going through the entire sales cycle with an engaged lead, only for them to drop off at the last moment. There is no exact science to reestablishing contact with a lost lead, however oftentimes you need to recognize that it may not be you - it could be them. A gentle reminder, coupled with a reiteration of how your product/service can help solve their specific challenge, can be the best approach. Make sure to also open the floor to them and ask them for any extra information on why communication has dropped off - the conversation may then move to objection handling.

Can I help you with making a decision?

Hi {1},

I know that if you’re anything like me, you probably get swamped with a million different projects, and some of them are placed on the back-burner for a while.

We connected back in {2} to chat about how our sales automation solution can help {3} address {4}. I haven’t heard back from you, so I’m guessing you’ve been busy on your end!

I would love to know if anything has changed with {5} at {6} since we’ve last spoken - happy to hop on the phone to discuss any new details and see how we can work together to move this to the front-burner and solve {7}.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Thanks,

Bob
