First Touch Templates

Referral: Who is the right person?


This is an example of referral template that is pointed and direct. This template
uses the subject line to do all the work it is not salesy and does not attempt to
convince the recipient on the benefits of your offering/ product etc. The subject
line is used to providing context. And the [leading general statement] provides
additional information about the function/person you are trying to contact.

Subject: Implementing XYZ at {{Company}}

Hi {{FirstName}},

I am trying to figure out who is incharge of [leading general


statement] there at {{Company}}.

best way I might get in touch with them?

a similar demographic with limited overlap. Seeing our products
are non-competitive, I wanted to touch base to see if {he/she}
was up for brainstorming ways to leverage our existing user
bases to grow both of our lists.

We did this with {prospect’s competitor} in the past, and


both parties received a x% lift in new subscribers.

the piece if you're up for it.

Value Add Outreach
When you are making a direct outreach to the person whom you have identi

your prospect. This "warms up" your prospect up by allowing them to take a
look at your blog, from there to your website etc. So that when you do make
a "sales" approach, they have some context about you and your offering.

Follow-up Templates

Following up is the most important lever to improve the response rate of


your cold email campaigns. Many studies have shown that it takes an
average of five follow ups to close a sale. So do not stop after a couple of
follow ups; keep following up till you get a response.

"Checking In" - to see if you got my previous email


Occasionally, as part of your email followup/ cadence, you may want to
simply refer to the previous email and bring it back to your prospect's
attention/ casually oat it to the top of their inbox.

Giving them another opportunity to read your previous outreach/ message and
respond. While we do not recommend excessive usage of the "Checking in"
variety of followup, it is common practice to mix it up in your followup
sequence and add one of these - especially during the early stages.

Checking In: Simple follow up


This is a simple follow up template that you can use in your cadence. It adds little
value beyond reminding them that you have approached them on the same topic a

few weeks ago. But it is an effective way to bring your previous approach to
the top of their inbox

Checking In: Confidence + Empathy


Some times a mix of confidence + empathy can move the needle. This template
stands out because you are empathetic to the prospect and the fact that they
may not want to start a conversation with you. At the same time, your
confidence in being able to solve their problem can power through this
hesitation.

Hi {{FirstName}},

I understand your position, but I wouldn’t follow up with you if I


didn’t strongly think that {your company} can help {their company}
solve {challenge # } by {product benefit # } and {product benefit # }.

I can promise you that {your product} is going to be an industry standard.


By choosing to not implement it, you’re putting your business and your
ability as a {their department} person at a disadvantage.

This is a follow up email template that you can use to follow up on your prospect

opportunity. Some thing that differentiates the top sales people from the rest.

Every Follow Up is an opportunity to Provide Value

Add some humor to your followup
Your prospect is constantly bombarded with notifications, social media feeds,
YouTube videos, not to mention tons of email every single day. In this age of over
communication, if you can make your prospect smile, then you can stand out among

the countless bland emails that hit your prospect's inbox.

Humor if well made, can make even the most defensive prospect lower their
guard and engage with you in a favorable disposition. Adding one funny email
template in your followup cadence is a highly recommended idea.

When it comes to funny templates, we highly recommend that you create


your own template based on your target persona and use the ones
provided below as inspiration only

Humor: The Super Hero
Who here does not like to be called a secret super hero? This template is
guaranteed to make your prospect smile - especially if they have not seen it before

Subject: Re: [same subject]

Hi {{FirstName}},

I’ve reached out a few times regarding your sales prospecting


strategies there at {company}. My guess is that we’re out of
touch for one of three reasons:
You don’t fancy whatever seem too good to be true.
You have another solution to create predictable outbound
prospecting numbers.
You are secretly a superhero and have been too busy
fighting crime to reply.

If any of these are correct then they may be the exact


reason why we should talk now…

Humor: The T-Rex one
This is another funny follow up email template. The quasi-anxious subject line
stands out. The absurdity of being chased by a T-Rex makes this one funny. Again,
guaranteed to evoke some laughs if your prospect has not seen this before.

Subject: Are you ok?

{{FirstName}},

I reached out previously regarding [WHAT YOU DO] and haven’t


heard back from you yet.

This tells me a few things:


• You’re being chased by a T-rex and haven’t had time to respond.
• You’re interested but haven’t had time to respond.
• You aren’t interested.

Whichever one it is, please let us know as we’re getting


worried! Source

Breakup Email Templates

Break up Email Templates


As a category, breakup email templates have gained a fair bit of notoriety over the
last few years. The basic premise behind these emails is to tell your prospect that
you are "giving up" on them. Usually, you are banking on the pseudo-psychological
manipulation also known as scarcity effect - that people want what they can't have.

Our experience has been that "Breakup emails" they tend to work more often than

not. Be sure to try them out in one of your cadences and measure the impact.

Breakup Email Template: Close Your File

Here you use the threat of "closing your sale" to tell the prospect that if they don't
show interest, you will be moving on.

Subject: permission to close your sale

{{FirstName}},

We are in the process of closing sales for the month. Typically


when I haven’t heard back from someone it means they’re
either really busy or aren’t interested.
If you aren’t interested, do I have your permission to close your sale?

If you’re still interested, what do you recommend as a next step?

Thanks for your help.

Breakup Email Template: Courteous and Firm
This breakup email template starts on a courteous note. The subject line
stands out with a "thanking you" message. By pointing out that you respect
the prospect's time, it adds another courteous note. And finally puts the ball
in the prospect's court if they wish to speak on this.

Subject: Thanks from [company]

Hi {{FirstName}},

I know we haven’t been able to connect, which usually means


one of two things: Either the timing may not be right or you no
longer have a need. In either case, I want to respect your time
so I’m going to go ahead and close your sale.

Otherwise, if you would still like to talk, let me know a good time.

Thanks again.

Breakup Email Template: One line zinger
To be clear, this is not a template that we recommend using with CEO of
large companies or with very senior people. But if you are reaching out to
some more junior in the organization, the over con dent tone of this
breakup email template might do the trick.
