How to craft the perfect sales meeting request email (3 tips)

Yes, you need to have a good subject line. You should be clear in your email, of course. And personalization is always a must. But what other tips do the experts recommend for crafting the perfect sales meeting request?

  1. The power of timing: Email timing is a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of crafting an effective sales meeting request. Sending your email at the right time can significantly increase your chances of getting noticed, opened, and replied to. According to a study by Yesware, the best days to send sales emails are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, while the optimal time is between 10 AM and 2 PM. Remember, though—knowing your specific target audience and considering their habits, time zone, and typical work hours are also essential, so do your homework!
  2. Drive the recipient's curiosity: Instead of going full infomercial mode, give 'em a gentle nudge of intrigue. Studies show that sparking curiosity can be more effective in making people want to learn and engage. So, invite the recipients to imagine how your product or service could benefit their business or tease them with a brief success story your company helped create. Remember not to overdo it—you still need to sound genuine and professional.
  3. Establish trust and social proof: Build trust by showcasing your credibility straight off the bat. People prefer working with companies that have a track record of success. One way to incorporate trust in your request is to share testimonials, notable clients, or industry accolades your company has received. According to Nielsen, 92% of people trust recommendations from others, even if they don't know them personally. Keep it subtle, though—you don't want to sound like you're bragging.
