Don't let fear get in the way of you sending out c

Don't let fear get in the way of you sending out cold pitch emails to your ideal clients. 🙈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I know what you're thinking - “What if they say no? What if they get upset or don’t even respond?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The thought of sending out unsolicited cold pitch emails might give you anxiety as an introvert and your feelings are normal. But the key here is to remember how valuable these kinds of emails are for finding YOUR dream clients!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In no way, shape or form are these emails spam - instead it is an email you write to a business you want to work with, and you offer your services. They can come off as SPAMMY if you don't do your research, so you need to be willing to spend a little more time with this process.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When writing these emails:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Focus on the business or person you are writing to more and how you can help them.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Personalize those emails and show that you genuinely want to work with them and have done your research on their business. Did you just read a recent blog post of theirs? Include that and tell them what you liked most about it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Keep it short and sweet - 3 or so paragraphs at most. This is your initial connection with them and you don't want to be long winded.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bonus Tip: If hitting that SEND button terrifies you, then schedule that email for a later time. It helps you get out of your head.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is a numbers game and you will have to get used to the 'no' responses you get. Remember that every no you get is leading you to your YES!

📌 Have an awesome business resource?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This statement speaks so much about our mindset and our business. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you been wondering why you aren't getting more comments on your posts or seeing more followers on your page?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

There are other ways to grow your business as an introvert that won't cause you undue stress! ⚡ I have 3 ways other than showing up live, on your stories, or in a way that feels inauthentic to you.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I know that the thought of any live video or talking at a local event can cause you to have butterflies - so we will steer clear of those for now.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let's start with technology: 📲⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When using social media, you can use amazing graphics and use CTAs to help get your point across. Let your knowledge and authority shine!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Blogging + Guest Blogging: 💻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This allows you to share your authority from a space you created. Along with that is the idea of guest blogging which allows you to get your ideas and content on another supporting website. It can create a larger engagement opportunity that will lead back to networking or other opportunities later.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Podcasts: 🎙️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This ties in one-on-one networking and technology. It's a more intimate setting but on a global scale. You are able to share your 'freebies' or documents in the show notes to enhance your knowledge further.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Does the thought of networking give you anxiety? 😳⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even at the beginning of my virtual assistant business, it was difficult for me to network and find clients. I have found it easier now with online marketing and other strategies - but as a fellow introvert it causes me anxiety to network too.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In-person networking is it's own beast and I still like to avoid it, but there are things we can do as introverts to make it easier on ourselves.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Start with people you know.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With people you already know, it is easier to have courage to have conversations with them and for them to mention your services to anyone they know who might be looking to make a connection or get services from you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Always be yourself.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you are a bit quirky or awkward - own it and don't apologize for it! It is who YOU are and is a part of what makes you special. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Listen.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We aren't the ones that typically talk about ourselves anyway - so this is a superpower for us introverts! Having genuine interest and then talking when needed shows that you are paying attention + that your engaged in the conversation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you are super introverted, know that you don't have to go outside of your comfort zone. They aren't essential - online connections through the different marketing tactics you choose to use are just as good.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
