On today’s episode, Jake will go over how to break in when a prospect is active on LinkedIn, how to reduce your chance of no shows, and how to handle those who are Engaged vs. Unengaged.” Every 6 months, we put together “The Modern Outbound Playbook,” “Breaking in When They’re Active on LinkedIn:” Pro Tips: #1 Always use the AND mentality when creating sequences. For example, it’s not a LinkedIn OR video play or an email OR LinkedIn play. This play uses email AND video AND audio messages AND calls. #2 Use Vidyard video analytics to track if people are watching 100% of your video. If not, try to shorten the length or test more engaging intros. The Play To Reduce Your Chance of No Shows Immediately after you set the meeting: Step 1. Send invite and assign to sequence Day before meeting: Step 2. The day before a meeting, send a short video as a reminder. Step 3. LinkedIn Profile View Day of Meeting: Step 4. 10 minutes after the meeting time, call your prospect and leave a voicemail if they don’t answer. Step 5. 1 hour after meeting, send a video via email: “Hey, we had a meeting booked at X time, but we seem to have missed each other. Is there a time that works for your tomorrow or (weekday 2 days from now)? Day after Meeting: If they still haven’t responded the next day, send a LinkedIn message “I know emails can be buried in inboxes…” Up your video quality game, show up digitally like you would in person. Split Play - Engaged vs. Unengaged Pro Tips: #1 Don’t use links until at least email #3 or videos until email #2.
