Dear Fishes, I am in a conundrum currently. I have two offers. One from Deloitte USI (17.5 LPA fixed, 1.75 LPA variable and 1.5 L joining bonus). The other is from Infosys (25 LPA CTC. Permanent WFH. Negotiation is still on for this.)
Could you please be so kind as to help me decide which one to choose?
Thanks in advance,
Fellow Perplexed Fish.

Start asking for a good cell phone number to reach them at.
Although it looks like most posting are not experiencing this, my team has noticed a huge change. Because all the prospects in our industry are 100% remote now, the only way to cold call is using personal cell #s. Zoom info has not been great for our particular industry, although we are SMB/MM so that’s to be expected. Other prospecting tools I’ve evaluated are saying the same thing regarding reliable direct numbers - of course, depends on your industry.
That being said, I’ve actually seen more responsiveness over email now for this reason.
Take a look at emails, make sure they are as personalized as possible (to their problem, NOT to them as an individual) and add timely one-offs over social. We also use Sales Nav, social DMs, etc. but really just try to find where they are most active. Also leaning in on past dead opportunities where we have a bit more of a lead in. Good luck!
I agree, it has got harder to reach people. I would recommend informal messages on linked in and personalised emails. I found merge mail to be really effective for getting a good number of emails out, but adding a customised message for each person targeted.
Good luck!
I network with COI’s, complimentary service providers, etc and we get together and share prospects, contact info, make introductions etc. I attend networking events relevant to the target market and industries I focus on. I host my own in-person and virtual events…some purely social and others are market updates, expert panels, and so on. Folks are much more likely to take your call or email if you’ve met them in person.
Interesting take. I haven't noticed this personally. What do you think the correlation to WFH is? Are you cold-calling/emailing?
What industry are you in?
Is this a change from pre-pandemic times or are you new to this role?
Agreed, it getting tougher to the point that I really just want to leave the industry all together
What is the correlation between any of this and WFH? I haven’t experienced any of what you described.
Cold calling and constant outreach is part of job, current clients are easy I have their phone numbers etc it’s net new I am struggling with honestly.
Sometimes (mostly) the gatekeeper is the one doing that objection. Do you have access to ZoomInfo? Or have you had any email reply? Most of the time they have their number linked on the signature. Abril is a difficult month. Spring break vacation, taxes season, etc. Good luck!
Agreed, if they reply lol. And Zoom info is not great but better than nothing right
What industry/people are you selling to?
Not vertical specific, C Suite, Legal
My company still won’t give us more then 5 WFH days a year. My partners live across the country and I work on a computer and a phone. I don’t understand the thought process.
That doesn’t make any sense, everyone has been home for so long now
Yea it has been very interesting. Things are going back to some sort of normal though. Seems like we are doing more in person now.
I try in person and am not having as much luck…appreciate all the awesome comments
