Sales emails do not have to be complex, nor do they have to be particularly lengthy - in fact, the most successful campaigns tend to be those that cut to the chase. They’re quick, concise and tailored to the recipient.

After all, the key decision-makers that salespeople target are unlikely to have the time to read a detailed, novel-like email. This rings particularly true if the content isn’t relevant to their specific needs and pain points. You must grab their attention and pique their interest in just a few short sentences, a skill that is much easier said than done.

Sales emails have long been part of every salesperson’s toolbox, but it's a skill that can take time to be developed. Creating compelling email campaigns may be the goal, but they can simply be taken as spam if not created correctly.

In this episode of the B2B Revenue Acceleration podcast, our host Aurelien Mottier (Co-Founder and CEO of Operatix) is joined by Ollie Whitfield (Growth Marketer at VanillaSoft). They discuss how best to go about creating compelling sales emails, including best practices for structure, language and eye-catching subject lines.
