Go beyond persuasion during a sales call. Use "pre-suasion" to shape the conversation's context beforehand. By strategically sending relevant content, links, and discussion topics, you can prime the prospect to focus on your strengths, making the eventual sales meeting far more effective.

To stand out from generic DMs, use video outreach tools that let you record personalized messages while scrolling through a prospect's own LinkedIn profile or website. This allows you to offer immediate, specific feedback or insights, demonstrating tangible value before asking for a meeting.

An intro video works 24/7 to position you as an expert prospects want to meet. It answers "who you are, what you do, and why they should care" before you ever speak, differentiating you from competitors and warming up leads.

To prove a prospecting video is truly personalized, screen-record yourself on the prospect's LinkedIn profile. As you talk, use an annotation tool to circle their accomplishments or specific job description keywords. This visual cue immediately proves the video was made just for them.

Create a five-minute video to send prospects before your first meeting. This digital asset should introduce your story, outline common industry headwinds your clients face, explain your problem-solving process, and describe the mindset required for them to succeed with your solution.

Instead of simply showing up to a first call, create a repeatable system. After a prospect books a meeting, automatically send a short introductory video about you and your company. This warms up the lead, sets expectations, and differentiates your process before the conversation begins.

After a new LinkedIn connection is accepted, send a short video or voice message. The goal is not to pitch, but simply to introduce yourself and establish that you are a real person. This humanizing step breaks through the noise and builds rapport for a future sales conversation.

Don't use a generic company or product video. A personal introductory video allows a sales professional to establish their credibility and expertise 24/7, making prospects want to talk to them before the first call even happens.

Before arriving for an in-home sales call, the technician or salesperson should send the homeowner a quick, personal selfie video. This simple touch introduces them, sets expectations (e.g., needing attic access), and builds rapport and familiarity before they even knock on the door, creating a warmer reception.
