INSIGHT

AI's Real Impact on Outbound Sales

  • AI has not drastically improved outbound sales outcomes like reply rates or meeting rates.
  • Its main value is reducing the time to craft effective emails from 45 minutes to just a few minutes.
ADVICE

Iterate Cold Emails Quickly

  • Use AI to rapidly experiment with different cold email variants to improve performance.
  • Focus on iterating content quickly rather than massproducing generic emails.
ADVICE

Use 10-80-10 AI Workflow

  • Use the 10-80-10 rule when leveraging AI: you do 10% setup, AI does 80%, and you finish with 10% refinement.
  • Treat AI outputs like a draft to red pen and personalize instead of creating from scratch.
