Hello friends! Ryan O'Hara here. Let’s talk… We’re on a mission to replace cold prospecting. It’s a hard mission… it’s ambitious. However, in the words of Doctor Emmet Brown, “if our calculations are correct, when Pitchfire hits 88 miles per hour, we’re going to see some serious shit.” Let me tell you why we are doing this wild experiment…. why we’re trying to replace cold prospecting… 🔥 Cold calls, email, and Linkedin DMs are annoying, and actually hurt productivity. We don’t like them and salespeople wish they didn’t have to do them. That’s the truth. It also doesn’t work as well as it used to… so over the past decade, sales teams buy sales engagement platforms, get your contact data from one of the 220 sales intelligence providers, and blast away even more calls, emails, and LinkedIn DMs. 98% will reach out to you more than once. We get prospected an average of 800 times a year. There will be 647 billion attempts by sales people this year to get a buyers attention. 🔥 The average decision maker who is actually buying and using products isn't some suit riding helicopters into work everyday… carrying a briefcase full of money, blasting Yacht rock (Note: I may be describing a typical 80s bad guys, but you get my point right?) It's normal people who make less than $80k a year. On average, they usually have over $90k in personal debt. That's excluding mortgages/rent too! While that’s happening, the average enterprise B2B company spends between marketing, sales tech, advertising, and data… more than $3500 to get a meeting with a prospect. 🔥 The B2B companies we all work for are supposed to get 40-50% of their revenue from cold prospecting, but it only works .4% of the time. 60% of teams will miss their revenue goals, and almost half of that number is supposed to come from outbound prospecting. And this is one of the main causes of our tech economy struggling. Our second biggest source for revenue likely won’t exist in 10 years, and buyers are paying the price with more disruptions from sales people than ever. Pitchfire is all about connecting buyers and sellers together in a safe way that is mutually beneficial for the buyer, the seller, and the companies they work for. It’s a place where sales pitches are welcomed because buyers are compensated to give sellers attention and answer them. I'm sure people have questions/concerns, thoughts... fire away!!!
