You need to “warm” your domain AKA raise your domain’s credibility so your emails aren’t automatically put into prospect’s spam and "promotions" folders
Wait 1-2 weeks with the warmer on before you get started
While waiting, autoconnect w/ prospects using KleanLeads and begin a cold InMessage campaign
Good thing about InMessages is they go directly in the person's email inbox AND LinkedIn inbox

All flaws w/ Machiavellian philosophy aside, it's still very relevant in legit business.
Here are some timeless pieces of advice:
1) “Injuries ought to be done all at one time, so that, being tasted less, they offend less; benefits ought to be given little by little, so that the flavour of them may last"
This applies to both your workers & your customers.
Every product or service you sell is actually TWO products:
1. The features
2. The results
Cannot stress this enough:
THE ONLY THING THAT SELLS IS SPECIFIC RESULTS.
SPECIFIC RESULTS!!!
UI/UX/Features don't sell, but they can enable you to articulate the results
If you are selling software, you will lose every time you say "It can do xyz"

"It will reduce your prospecting time by 80% so your reps can each spend an additional 4 hours a day on the phone with customers, leading to X more demos/rev"
