I'm planning a campaign to around 1,000 potential leads in a very targeted niche. I've previously done work for one business in this niche locally, so I have some relevant experience.
These 1,000 leads are spread across the US and Canada. I know the "spray and pray" approach won't work for such a targeted campaign. I need to be highly strategic and personalized.
My goal is to close around 3% of these leads this year through the cold emails and more (calls, LinkedIn?). What are your recommended strategies for a campaign like this? Some things I'm considering:
- Extensive research on each prospect company/decision maker
- Highly personalized email copy highlighting my relevant experience
- Multiple follow-up sequences
- Trying to get introductions/referrals where possible
- A/B testing different subject lines, copy, etc.
