#556 (Trailer) - I Taught A Standup Comedian To Cold Call (Real Dials)

Full video HERE What happens when you give a stand-up comedian a sales script and tell him to start cold calling? Alex Murphy sits down with his brother Andrew (a comedian in Austin) and gives him a crash course in cold calling. The goal: sell comedy show tickets… using real B2B sales tactics. First, Alex teaches Andrew the classic AIDA framework — Attention, Interest, Decision, Action — the same framework popularized in Glengarry Glen Ross. But learning a framework is one thing… Executing it live on cold calls is another. So Andrew has one challenge: Get 5 connects with sales leaders in Austin and try to sell tickets to his comedy show.

Learn more: https://www.30mpc.com/course/discovery-course -- ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Structure Your Call in 3 Parts: Great discovery calls have three distinct chapters—(1) the first five minutes to establish credibility and set your PPO agenda (Purpose, Plan, Outcome), (2) the next 20 minutes to uncover meaningful problems while building trust, and (3) the last five minutes to run your Five Minute Drill and determine if it’s worth setting a next step. Use Discovery Trees to Guide Questions: Map out your prospect’s problems in four layers—situation, operational pain, executive problem, and business impact. Use simple transitions like “so what?” to climb down the tree, and reverse it when execs start with big priorities. Don’t just ask questions—build a roadmap first. Balance Give and Take: If you only ask questions, you’re interrogating. Use playbacks, pile-ons, praise, and parallel stories to add value throughout the call and build trust. Use vertical questions to go deeper on one topic instead of jumping all over the place. Run a Tight Five Minute Drill: In the last five minutes, validate if they want to solve the problem, when they want to solve it, and how they buy. Suggest the timeline and buying process based on what you’ve seen work—not what they think they should do. If they’re serious, schedule the next step while you’re still on the call.

Full video HERE' The fastest way to reach the executive who can green-light your deal: write the email they’ll actually read. Nate Nasralla breaks down two real examples of emails you can draft for your champion to forward directly to their boss. Instead of selling to your champion, write the message so they can sell through them. Open with a priority the executive already cares about so the email immediately feels relevant. Use insights from discovery to highlight the tension or bottleneck slowing the team down. Then close with an executive-level ask—getting their take on a decision, tradeoff, or pilot.

Most sellers obsess over asking the perfect discovery question. In this episode, Gal Aga breaks down why great discovery has nothing to do with memorized questions and everything to do with understanding the problem, finding the root cause, and guiding the buying process. 🎙️ ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Focus on the problem, root cause, and impact you need to uncover, not memorizing discovery questions. Only prep the first 5–10 minutes with a POV and agenda, then let the conversation flow. Bring a point of view from research so buyers feel understood and the discussion starts deeper. Treat discovery as something you continue throughout the deal, especially with new stakeholders.

Full Video HERE We did the one thing you’re never supposed to do: We tried to blast our entire contact list of 224,000 people. But instead of sending generic spam, we built a workflow in Clay to automate the deep research usually reserved for one-off emails. The goal? To find sales leaders whose *own reps* were already watching our content, and use that data to send 6,000+ hyper-personalized messages at scale. In this video, we break down the exact 5-step workflow we used to filter our list, the "Trojan Horse" data strategy we used to personalize every single message, and the honest results of the campaign (including the big mistake that cost us thousands of opens). ====== GET THE RESOURCES FROM THIS VIDEO - Steal the Clay Prospecting Table we used: https://app.clay.com/shared-workbook/share_0t9swvgU7tkm8MGhuKZ - The Exact ChatGPT Email Prompt: https://www.30mpc.com/blog/chatgpt-prompt-b2b-courses ====== THE TECH STACK - Data Enrichment: Clay - CRM Source: HubSpot - Email Writing: Anthropic (Claude) via Clay - Sequencing: Clay Sequencer - Data Sources: LinkedIn, Newsletter Lists ====== ABOUT THIS EXPERIMENT Most people think you have to choose between "mass blast" and "manual personalization." We wanted to prove you can do both. We took a list of 224,000 followers, threw them into a Clay table to enrich the data, and filtered for Sales VPs with 10+ reps. We then cross-referenced that with our CRM to see which specific reps on their teams were consuming 30MPC content. The result? An AI-written email that looked 100% human-written, referencing specific employees by name. Watch to see: 1. How we filtered 224,000 leads down to the top 1% highest intent buyers. 2. The specific AI prompt that references rep names and consumed content. 3. Why running this campaign in December was a massive failure.

Giulio Segantini is back and this time it’s pure objection-handling firepower. If you sell anything over the phone, this is a tactical breakdown of how to handle “send me an email,” “we’re already working with someone,” “too expensive,” “not interested,” and every other cold call objection without sounding scripted or desperate. Built around Giulio’s 'ACE Framework' (Accept → Consent → Explore), this is a masterclass in real-world objection handling for SDRs, AEs, and sales leaders.

Close Complex Enterprise Deals by Selling the Problem, Not the Product Jen Allen-Knuth breaks down how to win executive deals by anchoring every conversation to a strategic objective and building urgency around cost of inaction. Prospect into the C-suite with a 4-step structure: objective → problem hypothesis → status quo → insight (not a pitch). Run discovery around objectives, obstacles, current approach, and negative consequences—then close with “Is this worth solving?” and “Is this worth solving now?” Multithread by aligning on a one-page problem statement, ghostwriting the buying group invite, surfacing deal friction early, and facilitating consensus in the room.

Over the last 12 to 16 weeks, we’ve been sitting down with the one and only Jen Allen-Knuth (2–3 hours per week, plus an entire week of shooting) to build her course: Selling to the C-Suite. This is everything you could possibly need to close a 6–7 figure deal at power. Backed by Gong data of and 1M+ executive-level sales cycles. https://www.30mpc.com/course/multithreading-exec-selling-course-selling-to-the-c-suite FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Start by aligning on the problem in the big team meeting and sell your champion on why it’s important. At the beginning of the big team meeting present in this order, the problem > the cost of inaction > alternatives which include you. In the big team meeting, call out those people who are not voicing their perspectives and create a safe space to air out problems. Even if there is consensus, push for one more person to get involved in the deal cycle before making a solution recommendation.
