Tip 1:
Start with “Hello” followed by “ thanks for adding” and a VERY Short introduction.
I also use Wordtune to improve my text.
Tip 2:
If you want to add more details about your business or objective, write the relevant expertise to your prospect.
For example: solution that similar companies apply or competitors are using XYZ to achieve ABC.
Tip 3:
Ask general questions, which will let you OPEN a discussion you need.
Some examples of questions you may want to try:
Have you thought of …?
Have you already tried …?
How COVID changed the way you’re doing business?
How happy are you with X on a scale of 1-10?
If you wish to send a message to a specific person, you should try Crystalknows.
I use it to grasp the psychological profile of the person and get quick insights what to say/write.
Based on your Linkedin profile, Crystalknows generates scripts for messages, calls, and emails in order to achieve the objective (sales pitch, follow up, fundraising).
Tip 4:
Speak about your experience, act as an advisor and share useful insights (what happens in the market, what their competitors do…)
If you have a case study, article, statistics – share the link or as attachment.
