I have good success with video prospecting on VidYard. The key is to get your ideal prospects added as a connection on LinkedIn. Once a connection, the VidYard comes up as a gif and add personalization (name on a paper) in the video. 3 cold outbounds in past 3 weeks using this method. People who say it doesn’t work don’t know how to do it at scale and are uncomfortable on camera. It takes practice but highly effective.

I have done it a few times, used a tool named tolstoy, I highly recommend it

what is video prospecting exactly?

My team never had success with it tbh

We tried Vinyard and Loom but our process was not great.

Got a 30% salary bump, via an offer for Senior Consultant S&O from Deloitte. Currently underpaid at EY Advisory. I'm MBA and this year is my promotion year at EY for Manager. What to do? Get demoted and move to D? Or counter at EY? Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.
