In today’s issue, I’m going to share 4 AI tools I started using recently.

If you follow the steps below, you’ll learn concrete AI use cases to gain productivity and to focus on prospecting, generating opportunities, and closing more deals.

Here’s the list:

Tool 1: ChatGPT

This is my favorite AI tool by far. It’s actually the infrastructure on which most AI tools you’ll see after are based. I use it for:

• Saving 4+ hours of prospect research per week

• Catching the attention of my prospect to get a 50% reply rate

• Turning a marketing resource into a killer prospecting asset

• Generating email subject lines

• Building my outbound sequences from scratch

I’m still discovering use cases daily, so make sure to subscribe to my newsletter to learn about them in your mailbox.

Tool 2: Circleback

Circleback is a free AI tool that records your meetings on Zoom, Google Meets, Teams, or Webex. I like it because you can take any meeting link, share with Circleback, and it will appear as a guest and record your meeting. No setup required.

When the meeting is done, you’ll get a transcript, a summary of the conversation, and a follow-up email generated by the AI.

Tool 3: Scribe by LeadIQ

I’ve recently discovered Scribe by LeadIQ and it’s really exciting to save you time on prospect research. You just need to copy/paste the LinkedIn profile of your prospect and the tool retrieves prospect information and potential triggers, such as podcast appearances, Twitter posts, LinkedIn posts, or news about the company.

It then generates 3 variations of outbound emails with the triggers you have selected, and you can copy/paste them in your emails.

There’s still some customization to add to get a great outbound email, but it’s a definite time saver.

Get it here.

Tool 4: The AI Outreach System

Technically this is not a tool, but a system. I’m building so you can stop being ignored by prospects. You’ll start researching, contacting, and booking meetings like a creative outbound salesperson.

Included are 8 modules, 28 micro-lessons including videos, worksheets, and assignments.

It’s available for pre-order here.

And these are 4 AI tools you can’t afford to ignore if you’re prospecting daily, speaking to customers, and trying to reach your sales targets in a competitive environment.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

In today’s issue, I’m going to share the 3 simple steps I follow to create my outbound sequences with ChatGPT.

If you can replicate these steps, you’ll generate an entire prospecting sequence, in 10 minutes or less.

Here’s how you can do it, step-by-step:

Step 1: List prospect’s symptoms

First, identify the symptoms your prospects are experiencing. What challenges are they facing? What pain points are they struggling with? Make a list of these symptoms, and use them as the basis for your outbound messages.

Here are two prompts you can use to do so:

1st prompt: Act like [prospect name], the [job title] at [company]. List your top 3 challenges for 2023. Bullet point and concise answer only.

Example:

In today’s issue, I’m going to share a simple system I use to create catchy email subject lines with AI, in under 5 minutes.

If you can replicate these steps, you’ll generate dozens of catchy email subject lines in no time.

Here’s how you can do it, step-by-step:

Step 1: Find 10 subject lines

Start by scouting your mailbox to find some catchy subject lines.

You can run a simple test. If the subject line made you open the email, then it’s good enough to make it to your list. A good subject line will make you stop what you’re doing, catch your attention and prompt you to open the email.

You can also explore blog posts from cold outreach email providers, and you’ll find tons of detailed research around subject lines, with detailed examples.

Here are 10 subject lines I liked:

• Thibaut, quick question

• Your thoughts

• CEO – a few tips

• RE: Follow up

• Need help?

• Thoughts?

• I might be wrong

• Open to this?

• Idea for podcast transcripts

• Idea for newsletter low open rate

Step 2: Turn the subject lines into templates

Now with your subject lines, do a bit of rewriting so you can feed them to ChatGPT and get some valuable output. Replace the elements of personalization (names, job titles, companies, pain points) with a placeholder.

Here’s how it looks for my 10 subject line examples:

• [First Name], quick question

• Your thoughts

• [Prospect’s job title] – a few tips

• RE: Follow up

• Need help?

• Thoughts?

• I might be wrong

• Open to this?

• Idea for [prospect pain point]

• Idea for [prospect challenge]

Step 3: Generate 10+ new subject lines with ChatGPT

And finally, feed the templatized email subject lines to ChatGPT, using the following prompt:
