When I don’t get answer on the phone my second option is to go to make a personalized 20-30 second video, and I end up landing interviews with top decision makers, does anyone else use video as part of their outreach? Would you attend a meeting with other like minded SDR/BDRs to showcase your skills and to see how other people use video to prospect, I’m thinking about doing a small webinar free of charge. What does the community think?

This would be awesome. Have always thought about adding video messages into my outreach but seeing someone who’s had success with it already would be incredibly helpful.

like

Agreed! Especially if the SDR has had success with video prospecting into to security teams. I feel like it’s not applicable if the person is targeting sales or marketing because technical folks are far less likely to respond than GTM teams, at least in my experience.

Top SDRs oftentimes don't sound like traditional salespeople when cold calling. They use a very casual voice tone.

Here are a few tips:

1. Avoid upward inflections at the end of sentences. This makes it sound like everything you ask is a question
2. Slow down and eliminate buzzwords. Speaking fast makes you sound nervous and less confident
3. Avoid reading from a script - internalize your message and put it into your own works so you sound like YOU!

Thoughts? What are your top tips?
