Well, it’s great that you did all that research, because this is when you’ll put it to use! Email is a convenient and simple way to reach out. Going the extra mile and putting some extra effort into those emails can make all the difference in your success.
Why Research?
The purpose of researching a lead before reaching out is twofold. First off, it will help you recognize which leads may very likely become buyers, and which ones probably won’t feel the need for your product. Essentially, it will eliminate time wasted running after unqualified leads. Secondly, a big part of what sets inbound selling apart from the old-fashioned, outdated sales model is its focus on personalization. Personalization guarantees that your prospect knows why your product or service is relevant and builds that extra level of rapport needed to get to the sale.
