At LeadFuze, we've dealt firsthand with the challenges of growing a sales team from the ground up. We realized there was not a lot of good information available, from people actually building these teams. So our goal is to interview some of the top sales managers/professionals from various industries to get their take on how to handle different aspects of growing and managing a sales team and ultimately create a go-to resource for up and coming sales managers to turn. The podcast will feature quick, conversational interview around topics like hiring, compensation, tools, motivation, pricing, messaging, even customer success topics.

Dan Waldschmidt is a prospecting legend. His creative philosophy of "Unpredictable and Delightful" is both effective and enjoyable for everyone involved in the process. Prospects love hearing from him, and they eventually turn into customers at an alarmingly high rate. In this episode, we dig into some of the specific creative outbound strategies that Dan uses to get the attention of very successful executives. He describes his 1-2-1 approach formula, which breaks down like this: 1: One sentence opening - I'm writing you because...  2: Two sentences on why you should care about what we are talking about 1: One final question - Make it easy for them to respond and continue the conversation.  They key, as Dan describes, is to understand the environment of your prospect. What types of messages will he respond to, and how many of the typical "can you tell me who at your company handles buying xyz" type messages he gets every day.
