This document discusses strategies for creating relevant outreach when contacting sales prospects. It recommends checking if the prospect knows anyone you know, has worked at a company you have as a customer, or has been active on social media or quoted in articles. Mentioning these personal details can help customize your message. However, the document cautions that customizing every message is not effective and does not often result in responses. It suggests focusing instead on understanding a prospect's workflow, industry goals, pain points, and how your software could help improve areas where extra time is spent. Relevant solutions that address a prospect's needs are more likely to get a meeting scheduled.

Scaling relevance is a simple concept because it does not require input every time you need to rach out to someone and this saves minutes per lead, which ends up as hours per day and week — the payoff is nearly endless if you can make your research lightning fast. Instead of relying on the customized bit to get them to meet with you, rely on your knowledge of their workflow, their industry, and their company’s specific goals. In order to create relevance there are three specific things you can check in order to customize to the person. These will actually push you over the edge: Does the prospect know anyone you know? This is gold in terms of customization Has the prospect worked at a company that you have as a customer? You should mention it: “Hey John, noticed your time at Acme — they’re a customer of ours...” and scope the use case for Acme with very succinct and unique phraseology Is the person active on social media or have been quoted in an article, podcast, or other media? If it is relevant, you should pull it and use in the first line of your email. Remember, 3 sentences total — 4 is a last resort if you need it. After these relevance pulls, there is no reason to continue to make the message specific to one person. Customizing an email does not garner an response. Personal information available online is not a good enough reason to give a stranger any time out of their busy day. Think of the salary for a VP at an enterprise company. How much money is 15 minutes worth? Identifying a week spot in their workflow and proposing a solution is more likely to set a meeting. What if you were to spend your time understanding the hangups and areas where extra time is spent that your software might be able to help? How is the company trying to make money? Can you improve that for them? Read the 10k document. Find out what the company
