Building a sales tool and have been reaching out to people in the sales space via linkedin.

Be brutally honest: how can I not be a nuisance?

You can smell a sell from a mile away, so should I lay my cards out and lead with it?

What (if anything) would make you consider giving some of your time for a chat?

spelling all in lower case, annoying or disarming?

Building a sales enablement tool (interactive sales proposals with built-in buyer analytics).

Currently DM'ing sales reps (AEs, sales managers and even some head of sales) on linkedin with short + personalised msgs. CTA is a 15min chat but response rate isn't very high (~5%).

Reps that do respond offer really great feedback, it's just been a grind getting enough volume.

Should we continue with the volume play, or have you found alternative approaches that have worked well?
