Some weekend tips/ thoughts about outbound prospecting… a thread… some things we’ve seen @leadiq
1. Average cold email replies rates dipped below 1% for the first time in 2021. Prospects are learning to tune us out.
2. Cold call connect rates dipped below 3%. If you ask people… even ones that work in sales, how often they answer a cell phone from a number they don’t know…it’s extremely low. Desk phones and work numbers are no longer plugged in or setup, especially in SaaS. Dialers say 3%.
