Are you an SDR or AE in SaaS sales looking for ways to improve your cold call conversion rate to book more meetings? I had a great conversation with Gong AE Jc Pollard where we dig into his cold calling mindset & step by step cold calling frameworks which generated 80% of his pipeline & got him promoted from SDR to AE in record time. Check out the video linked in the comments below & steal his secrets to become the top cold caller & pipeline generator at your SaaS company. ⏲Timestamps: 0:00 - 2:50 - Intro & video overview & resources 2:50 - 3:14 - Working 4 hr days as an SDR 3:14 - 3:45 - Why cold calling is more important than ever 3:45 - 5:00 - How JC prepared to become a great cold caller 5:00 - 5:31 - Using cold emails to warm up cold calls 5:31 - 6:56 - Believing in your product is critical to cold calling success 6:56 - 9:22 - Why Friday is the best day to cold call 9:22 - 11:04 - Winning the first 30 seconds of the cold call 11:04 - 11:36 - Make & listen to more calls than your teammates 11:36 - 13:38 - Step 1: Permission based opener (examples & why it works) 13:38 - 17:51 - Step 2: The 3YU framework (90% of SDRs & AEs don't do this) 17:51 - 22:39 - Step 3: Prepping for & tailoring your pitch to each persona 22:39 - 23:46 - Objection handling mindset (understanding Vs handling) 23:46 - 25:17 - How to handle the objection "I'm not interested" 25:17 - 29:39 - Step 4: Use the 1+1=2 method to set the meeting 29:39 - 30:55 - How JC broke through to a 48% cold calling conversion rate 30:55 - End - Outro & additional resources I encourage you to take notes, make these frameworks your own, and make more cold calls (especially on Fridays) to book more meeting & build more pipeline!
