Create Personalized Outreach Using Trigger Opportunities | Sales

Trigger-Based Outreach

Table of Contents

Many salespeople struggle to create personalized outreach to help with their prospecting.

One proven way to improve prospecting is by using trigger opportunities. These moments give salespeople a natural reason to reach out to prospects based on events tied to their business. This aligns well with strategic account-based marketing for SaaS businesses, where personalization plays a critical role in engagement.

These opportunities help build a connection with the client. After all, we don’t want our client to think we only reach out when there’s a project. Trigger-based outreach allows us to engage meaningfully while also identifying potential sales opportunities.

Example of Effective Trigger-Based Outreach

One of our clients received an immediate answer using this approach:

Jim – Hi, I hope you are well.

While passing through my LinkedIn feed, I came across a post where you talked about the recent patent infringement case in the federal court. I am happy to know that you have won your ‘first’ argument in the court and I thought to take this opportunity to congratulate you on this achievement.

It’s not common but the first accomplishments are always very special. Hope we get a chance to work for you and become a part of another such win in the future.

This approach mirrors how to write emails that actually get opened by leveraging personalization and relevance.
