The Five Line Nudge: A Quick Email Strategy
In this micro episode, the five-line nudge is introduced as a quick email technique to rejuvenate stalled deals. The method involves sending a concise, five-line email within 75-100 words that includes context, a value refresher, a friction reducer, a binary next step, and a sign-off. The episode also discusses the AI Sidecar, which uses AI tools to draft these emails from call transcripts. Recommendations include waiting 24-48 hours before following up and personalizing AI-generated drafts. A swipe tool for ready-to-send messages is also available for purchase.
