Writing a B2B Email That Gets Opened
(An email requesting a phone call)
By Chip Tarver


This is a quickie because this is not a difficult task.

Yes - due to the scourge of spammers (AKA losers) prevailing
on the Internet today, our dear email system is just not what
it used to be.

Fact.

Now it's even MORE IMPORTANT to know how to craft an email
that gets opens. You have to be able to rise above the noise
and clutter in your target's inbox.

So without further delay - lets get started ... here's one example
that works for me ...

NOTE: DO NOT LIE TO PEOPLE. IF YOU DON'T SINCERELY MEAN
WHAT I ILLUSTRATE BELOW - OR IF IT IS NOT TRUE IN YOUR
SITUATION, FIND ANOTHER WAY.) (all caps on purpose)

=================================================

Subject line: Firstname - I'm *very* interested in your work

Hi, Firstname -

I've been on your list for a while, and I'm seriously considering
buying your (name of product.) It might be a bit of a stretch
financially for me at the moment, so I just want to be really
sure it's right for me.

If it is, I think I can swing the purchase OK.

Would you please be so kind as to share between five and
seven minutes on the phone with me and answer a couple
of questions I have?

Then I can be sure when I click the order link on your (name
of site URL) - I'm doing what's best for both of us.

I never buy products with the thought of returning them.

In addition, I respect your time, and would never make such
a request as this if I weren't serious. Please be so kind as to
tell me a convenient day and time for you to share a few minutes
with me, as well as a phone number you prefer I use.

I'm in eastern time, and I know you're in (name of) time, so
please specify which time zone you're referring to when you
kindly reply to this email.

Thank you in advance.  I truly appreciate your time -
My name
My phone number
My URL

=================================================

IMPORTANT POINTS:

This email sample is short, interesting, intriguing, sincere,
respectful, to the point, humble, and assuming a successful
outcome.

It's a text email - not an html email.

I didn't say a word about how great I think I am or what
silly product I'm about to beg them to help me with (this
happens all the time.)

Any person worth knowing *will* respond with an answer.

Further, they should be happy to set up a time to talk with
you for a few minutes. If they don't, they don't deserve
your attention, your time, or your money.

Instead, find someone who cares.

You deserve that much, for sure.
