Episode 202 – Bringing Warmth to Prospecting Automation with Adon Rigg

Episode Overview

You’re savvy enough to get a  list of potential leads. A LOT of potential leads. Are you going to write and send a thousand emails? Make a thousand calls? Today’s guest says that it doesn’t have to be that way. Adon Rigg, the King of Prospecting Automation, author, and founder of leadfreak.ai.

Adon jumps right in and gives a breakdown of prospecting automation, using it to save time, and allowing you to focus in on potential prospects in a more large-scale way. But Gina wonders… where is the warmth? We know human connection sells, so is automation leaving some people feeling cold? Adon clarifies that automation is to narrow the field, to then allow you to deliver the personal connection to people who are more receptive. He lays out the sections of the funnel in which automation is most helpful and where it should be taken out altogether.

He then delves a bit deeper and gives some examples of how to approach these more interested parties when contacting them by phone, which resources he uses to get the thousands of leads in order to let automation do the job of leading us to the most receptive people to call, and why AI is not as scary as it seems.

More About Susanna

After graduating from Cambridge University in Music and Education, Susanna took her first sales role selling advertising space on websites.

She’s always been intrigued by the unfair negative stigma associated with sales and the way that after their initial excitement to work in sales, people will do everything they can to avoid actual prospecting.

With 14 years of experience in recruitment, Susanna challenges this mindset through her successful business sourcing sales professionals into recruitment roles.

Susanna decided to become a Sales Gravy Master Trainer because Sales Gravy’s vision matches her own beliefs and values.

She is committed to providing excellence and dedication to all of her trainees so that they can achieve their goals and succeed in sales.
