Overview

When you think of a gatekeeper, the person who decides who speaks with a decision maker, you probably think of a secretary or assistant. Today, however, technology has created another gatekeeper...noise.

Every day decision makers are bombarded with sales emails, social media posts and requests, and text messages. Those things generate a lot of noise, plus there's no way the person can read everything, so decision makers delete or ignore them.

Because of that, salespeople need a multi-pronged approach to get appointments with decision makers, says EksAyn Anderson, author of The Key to the Gate.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Inside Sales reps looking to get past the gatekeeper should join EksAyn for this Frontline Friday to learn:

-How getting an appointment with a decision maker is a process, not an event
-Principles to apply when talking with gatekeepers
-Why email alone isn't a good strategy to reach decision makers
-Best practices when sending a prospecting email
