Crush your goals in Q2

BDRs! Want to know how to hit your # in Q2 with cold email? 🧐

 

2 weeks ago, I spoke to Maurits Pieper on how his team is crushing it.

 

The answer?

 

Working with partners.🤝 Here’s what Maurits described:

 

One SDR was eager to hit their number. 💪

 

Knowing that partnerships make for easier, warmer, & faster introductions and conversations, they wanted to work more with partners.

 

Maurits (on the partner team) enabled the SDR with the right info - the accounts that use partners today & what those partners do.

 

The SDR then referenced these partners in their outreach to show relevancy in their message to prospects.

 

The result? 💡

 

The SDR had a significant increase in meetings booked + qualified leads. 📈

 

Further, the account executive had an easier time closing deals with partners, leading to faster & larger deals closed too. 🤯

 

Then, every other sales rep was looking to work with partners.

 

Why does it work?

 

As Will Allred from Lavender says - it’s not just about personalization; it’s about relevancy.

 

Mentioning partners in your outreach = understanding their situation.

 

Trust is built faster (and shows you are already trusted by those they already spend money with).

 

You’ll know more about the prospect and what’s important to them.

 

So what should you do? ✍️

 

✅1) You can listen to the full episode on the Howdy Partners Podcast

 

✅2) Ask your partner team for an account list that uses partners + brief overviews of those partners.

 

✅3) Email me, and I’ll help you navigate this. — Will Taylor

 

Partner engagement starts with an experience

Partners won’t want to use your portal unless you make it a seamless white-glove experience.

 

But how do you do that?

 

Tomorrow, join partner pros Aaron Howerton, Rob Rebholz, and Paul Bird as they unpack partner portals.

 

Magentrix is hosting a live Q & A tomorrow, April 12, from 1 -2 PM ET to discuss:

  • The root causes behind a lack of partner engagement with your portal and what you can do about it
  • What Magentrix is doing to enable you with partner engagement tools both inside AND outside the portal.
  • How Magentrix has pioneered AI-powered PRMs and is leading the way to an AI-powered future in partner management tech.
