Hey {First name},
Where are you calling from today?
Okay, great.
So I’d like to get straight to the point to be respectful of your time.
I first learn about your business and goals, and if I think we can help you, I will share a little
more about our value prop and case studies, then tee up a more in-depth strategy session with
one of our senior growth consultants. Does that work?
Okay, great.
So let’s get into it.
Let’s talk about your customers.
{Current Situation}
Question 1: (current situation - something light and easy to answer - Ex. What does that
customer avatar look like? )
Question 2: (current situation - something light and easy to answer - Ex. What results are you
providing to your customers and give me a 1 minute background on your solution. )
Question 3: (current situation - something light and easy to answer - Ex. What is the ticket price
of your offer? What is the pricing model?)
Question 4: (Current situation - gathering more information - Ex. How big is your team?)
Question 5: (current situation - Ex. Do you have an in-house marketer in house?)
Question 6: (current situation - Ex. How many salespeople do you have?)
Question 7: (current situation - Ex. How are you currently generating leads or traffic? How many
leads a month are you generating and at what cost per lead? )
Question 8: (current situation - Ex. How are you currently converting leads into customers?
What is the conversion rate?)
Question 9: (current situation - Ex. What is your current average cost per lead?...Just
ballpark…)
Future Situation
Question 1: (future/desired situation - Ex - In the next 6-12 months, where do you want your
monthly revenue to be?)
Question 2: (future/desired situation - Ex. How many customers per month do you need to close
to get to your goal?)
Question 3: (future/desired situation - Ex. How many salespeople do you need to hire in the
next few months to get to your goal?)
Problem Isolation/Determining Need:
Okay, great. And what is stopping you, in your own honest opinion, from hitting this goal on your
own?
Okay, and how soon do you want to solve this problem? What happens if you don’t solve this in
that time frame?
Okay, I know that some problems are more important than others. How committed to solving
this are you? Is this a threat level 1 or more of a backburner thing?
Qualify for Money
Hypothetically speaking, if we could help you hit your growth goal, are you able to afford at least
$15k? Assuming, of course, we can actually move the needle for you?
Qualify for Decision Making Authority
And last question, full transparency… are you the guy/person who pulls the triggers, or are there
other decision makers that need to sign off if you opt to move forward?
Okay, great.
Based on what you told me, what we do here is a perfect fit.
I’m going to quickly give you our value prop and walk you through a few case studies, then I will
get you on the calendar with one of our senior growth consultants.
FAST OVERVIEW (30sec) -
So, what we do is [Insert big claim - Ex. help our clients build predictable and profitable
customer acquisition machines really quickly.]
PROOF
[Insert proof - Ex.
For example, we helped 15 companies in the past 7 months to get past $1M ARR.
We are currently working with 400 fast growing companies from all over the world.
A few case studies:
AdvisorStream, a fintech SaaS offering went from $0-$1M ARR in 12 months with us and are
now at $3M ARR. We helped them build a paid traffic funnel and sales team.
CoPilot Advisor, another fintech SaaS offering went from $0-1M ARR in 11 months with us and
increase their valuation by $8M. We helped them build out a paid traffic funnel and sales team.
Planswell raised $7M after working with us. They sell insurance and software. We solved paid
ads and their sales team too.
We made Press Advantage $400k ARR in 3 months. (They are a SaaS for SEO agencies).
We have companies from Y-Combinator like Foxpass.
Some of our clients are backed by large VC firms like Sequia, Social Capital and Founder’s
Fund.
At the end of the day, we focus on making our clients at least $1M in a year. If we don’t do that,
we are upset. ]
