- 32. The Networker Hello [contact first name], Great to have you in my LinkedIn network, but that does work as well if we don’t know much about each other. To make my connections more powerful, I try to spend 15 to 20 minutes with my contacts so that I can learn a little more about what you do and can share any information from my side that you would like to know. Are you available to put a quick call on the calendar?
- 33. The Keep Me In Minder Hello [contact first name], I see that you are a [prospect title] so you might need or purchase [your product or service] from time-to-time. We sell that but I am not reaching out to see if you need it because you are most likely not looking to purchase that when you get this message.. So what I would like to do is ask that you keep this message in one of your email folders as an new option for you when you are ready to purchase or make a change. Some ways that we differ from your other options are [differentiation 1], [differentiation 2], and [differentiation 3]. Let me know if you would like to schedule a brief call.
