Use each answer to guide your next question and go deeper instead of jumping topics. Lead with respect, not small talk. Top sellers prove they’ve done their homework in the first 90 seconds to earn credibility fast. Set a PPO agenda (Purpose, Plan, Outcome) early. It prevents the prospect from hijacking the call and builds trust through structure. Qualify before you demo. Ask: “Do you want to buy?” and “When do you want to buy?” before setting next steps or booking another call.

In this tactical episode, Jason Bay and Armand Farrokh break down how sales leaders can revive cold email performance with a structured, data-backed approach that actually books meetings. 🎙️ ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Build a Messaging Matrix First: Teach reps to understand personas before writing—cover priorities, current solutions, problems, and aspirations. Implement the “Minimum Viable Framework”: Use a 4-part cold email formula—Reason, Problem, Value/Social Proof, and CTA—and design 2–3 sequences per persona level (above vs. below the power line). Train in Sprints, Reinforce Weekly: Use shuttle-run style onboarding (short lessons + rep practice) and embed weekly cold email reviews in team meetings and 1:1s. Track the “Golden Three” Metrics: Monitor open, reply, and meeting rates—fix subject lines/deliverability before copy, and AB test specific steps instead of restarting entire sequences.

Sean Email Example #2 (Automated welding solution) : VP of Operations Subject: Welders Hi Luke, Saw hiring MIG welders and looks like there’s a lot of manual rework and touch up in your welds. Recruiting and retaining top talent likely a top priority, but the lack of skilled welders in the marketplace right now can cause big production bottlenecks. Hitch manufacturers like CURT are using our help to overcome the welder shortage and produce consistent, high-quality welds. Interested in chatting further? Corey

In this episode, Nick and Jason break down the exact cold email structure, CTAs, and personalization tactics top reps are using to book more meetings. 🎙️ ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Use The Reply Method framework: 4-sentence emails under 100 words outperform longer messages—make it skimmable, mobile-first, and frictionless to reply. Avoid pitch language: Buzzwords and product-first copy reduce replies by up to 57%. Lead with problems your buyer already cares about, then layer in social proof. Personalize to the company or activity: Personalization = 5x replies, but not all types are equal—company and activity-based personalization outperform personal trivia. Offer something valuable in your CTA: Replace “Are you free?” with a compelling offer—benchmarking, expert insights, or 1:1 value that justifies a meeting even if they don’t buy.
