💡 Tip — Day 190

Use the 3-Door Sequence when a prospect ignores your first email. Don’t “bump this.” Open a different door. 1. Problem door: Name a likely pain their role owns. 2. Cost door: Point to what that pain usually breaks — time, revenue, risk, morale. 3. Proof door: Share a short peer example or pattern. 4. Choice door: Give them an easy yes/no: “Worth a quick look, or not relevant right now?” The goal isn’t persistence. It’s relevance from multiple angles. 🎯 Try this today: Find one stalled outbound thread and rewrite your next touch using one new door instead of saying “following up.”
