Sure enough, after just three shovel fulls of dirt, I hit rock and it was bigger than both my shovel and the hole. I was stuck.

For decades, sellers have been instructed to “find the pain!” We’ve been trained, almost like doctors, to diagnose our customers’ pains; “Does it hurt here? What about when I do this? How often do you experience it? Is it most severe after a poor earnings report? Once we and the customers have diagnosed the pain, we prescribe a solution.

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs. For sales teams managing hundreds or thousands of prospects, however, delivering this level of personalization without automation is nearly impossible. The key is integrating AI in a way that enhances customer engagement rather than making it feel robotic.

There are many different types of people you come across in your sales career. Founders are a unique animal, but they aren’t all built the same way. This makes selling to founders a bit more nuanced than other personas. But founders are the final decision-makers at their company — so working directly with founders is a great way to cut through the noise and sell directly to the person who will be signing the check.

Sadly, however, even the more inclusive types sometimes feel invisible as email, messaging, and calls never receive a response. If you sometimes feel invisible, you will likely know that the better sales goal is to allow each person to express themselves fully.

The good news? Once you know how to write compelling, one-off emails to entice prospective customers, you can easily do the same across a short sequence of emails.
