Earnings call/10-K release

Why it matters

Similar to a funding announcement, an earnings call or 10-K release can provide a reason for reaching out.

Money ready to invest, problems that need to be solved—you can glean a lot of insights about business priorities and how your product or service might be able to help.

What to do

Dig deeper into financial reports to get a grip on business challenges and potential initiatives—as well as key stakeholders to outbound.

The goal is to reach out with relevance—not just use earnings calls or 10-Ks as fluffy personalization for a generic pitch.

Questions to inform outreach
  • What department is the person part of?
  • Is the person’s organization a good fit for your product?
  • Who are the other stakeholders at the person’s organization?
  • Has anyone from the organization engaged with your website or product?
  • Has the organization shared any information about challenges or goals?
  • What information can you share to show the value of your product?

Here’s an outbound template to help you get the creative juices flowing:
