This episode is about the future of sales (non-AI edition). It’s difficult to talk about the future of sales without mentioning AI, but there is a lot of stuff in the future that has nothing to do with AI. So we are going to end this season of the Practical Prospecting Podcast by talking about some of the trends we see in the coming years that sales reps need to be aware of and follow.

46. Offer for Outbound Messaging
Mastering the offer for outbound messaging is a topic that often gets pushed to the side. But most of us have stories about terrible pitches we have gotten from cold calls or emails. And this can be fixed by simply spending an extra 30 seconds on someone’s LinkedIn profile. So on the show today, we are going to spend 15 minutes helping you create a better cold outreach offer.
