{How I Close Influencers}

As promised

I’m about to drop a thread on how I contact and message influencers with 100k-1M followers

most people’s bottleneck is in their outreach

Let’s change that

\\thread//

So how do we reach out to high level business owners?

Influencers, agency owners, coaches, etc

Well first off, let’s place ourselves in their shoes

Many of my clients have been verified, 100k ++ followers, etc

They get TONS of DM’s

Every. Single. Day

Would get pretty annoying having 30 people pitch you for a quick “virtual coffee” or whatever every day right?

So we’re NOT going to do that

They’re humans too just like us and we want to make them our friends

I don’t even THINK about mentioning my services in any of my first messages

again- that’s what everyone is doing

Do what everyone does- and you’ll get everyone else’s results (not very good)

So what do I do?

I simply send a text or video DM introducing myself, maybe a fun fact Ab myself, then I comment on something on their page that’s SPECIFIC

And I ask a GOOD question that’s thought provoking, may even be humorous

Here’s some examples: obviously a lot of the people I reach out to have an online biz

I’ll often ask them about their journey

And I’m GENUINELY interested

What makes them tick? What made them choose this path? What roadblocks did they hit? How did they overcome them?

Here’s a bit more of a humor example

This guy has all these skydiving videos on his page

I was like “ dude this video of you skydiving in Bali is nuts... how the hell did you convince your parents to do this?!?!

I’ve been trying to convince mine for ages!”

He thought it was funny and we talked about traveling for 5 mins in DM’s

Where we want to travel, our fav places, etc

THAT is rapport

I make people real online friends

Say nothing about my services

But AFTER I feel we’re online friends

I’ll send them a 2-3 min loom video with some free suggestions on how to improve their funnel

Or I might offer a free audit of a sales call

Point is- I lead with VALUE

And I deliver value to the point where they’re like I should of PAID for this

And then when I actually pitch them- for either a phone call or on the phone for actual services

I don’t even need to sell them- they’re like hell ya let’s do it (literally)

This ISNT a fast process

It’s a longer sales cycle

The Tik tok influencer I closed took a little over a month

Constantly following up, I bought his merch, listened to his podcasts and texted him my favorite parts

Do you see the difference?

I’m GENUINELY connecting with people

I’m supporting them- hoping they win and wanting to be a part of it

And then they realize that, and it’s not “oh this guy wants my money”

It’s “oh this guy ACTUALLY wants me to win in life and just wants to help”

And THAT’S the difference

This thread should NOT of been free

You’re probably thinking “damn I would of paid for this”

And exactly... I practice what I preach

And when the time comes that some of you are ready for my coaching program

I won’t have to sell you

It’ll be a no brainer

Anyways - hope this was helpful to you guys

Be ambitious- reach out to big influencers

Make them your friends

And let’s all win 🥂
