What you'll learn

  • Produce a one-page brief on an account and a person in about 15 minutes, and tell when you have enough to write and when you do not.
  • Write a four-sentence cold email to a senior buyer, choose a subject line that gets it opened by the right person, and cut the parts that get emails deleted.
  • Tell what each buyer role looks for on LinkedIn, write a first message after they accept, recognise when not to pitch and approach several people in one account without crowding them.
  • Decide when a call is worth making, open it in four parts, handle an assistant and a voicemail, and record what you learn so the next touch is better.
  • Decide when a follow-up is due, make each one add something new, switch channel instead of repeating yourself and park an account cleanly when the sequence ends.
  • Run our Tier 1 pattern across 17 days, choose the lighter version for Tiers 2 and 3, fit the calendar to the buyer's working days and apply the exit rule on the final day.
