It was Monday morning, 11 AM when I went to my boss and said, “I’m sorry, this job, sales...it’s not for me” and I left.

That was 13+ years ago.

At 22 years old I landed my first real job fresh out of college ready to be a “career person.”

I crushed the interview.

But when I came into work for my first day at 10am, I quickly realized that I was scared sh**less of sales, and quit within the first hour.

For the next 3 years, I had PTSD and avoided sales like the plague.

I played it safe and stayed in my comfort zone.

No sales-related stuff whatsoever.

I lost my confidence and ambition. 

I missed career opportunities and wasted away my early 20s.

Fast forward to present day:

I'm a former 2X VP of Sales who took 1 startup from $0 ARR to ≈ $10M ARR in 4 years, and another from $1.5M to ≈ $4.6M ARR in 18 months.

I now teaching SMB AEs and teams how to be top sellers, make higher 6-figures, and get promoted through repeatable systems and playbooks.

Mor Assouline

An AE in Australia reached out after finding me through organic search.

He's been at his company 11 months.

$1M quota. Sitting at $200K. Final quarter just started.

"I'm having maybe one discovery call every two weeks. Nothing is sticking. It's demotivating."

I asked him: "What channels are you using?"

Him: "LinkedIn and email mostly. Not a lot of cold calling to be completely 
transparent."

Me: "Why not cold calling?"

Him: "It's a grind. I just haven't made the effort."

Here's what I showed him:

He's stuck in a never-ending loop.

The loop looks like this:

No pipeline in dashboard
↓ 
Thinking, "This is too hard" 
↓ 
Frustration and hopelessness
↓ 
Avoiding cold calls and disengaging
↓ 
No pipeline

Then his brain says: "See? I told you it was hard."

The loop repeats.

Every time he doesn't see results, it reinforces the belief that it's hard.

That belief triggers frustration, doubt, and questioning if he should be in sales.

That frustration leads to disengagement.

That disengagement creates no pipeline.

Which proves he was "right" that it's hard.

It’s a mental hamster wheel.

The problem:

Most sellers think they just need to change their behavior.

"I'll just cold call more."
"I'll block my calendar better."

But they're still carrying the same beliefs about the work.

When you believe "this is hard" and feel "hopeless," even if you force yourself 
to take action, the results won't be consistent.

You're doing it from a place of scarcity.

After showing him this, he said:

"Damn. This is exactly what's happening to me."

The reality:

You can't break the loop by just working harder.

You need to interrupt it at the source.

Most AEs never figure this out.

They stay stuck wondering why nothing changes.

CEOs: Broken pipeline & poor performer sales reps? I fix both for you in <60 days. You’ll hate how fast it works. | Modern Seller Program Founder

Your ability to book meetings, negotiate, and close deals with potential clients will determine how far you’ll thrive as a sales rep and leader.

This will allow you to:

📈 Build a career
📈 Hit your quotas
📈 Get recognition
📈 Get a promotion
📈 Get better offers
📈 Land sponsorships

However, booking meetings and closing deals it’s harder than ever:

❌ Prospects don’t return your calls
❌ Prospects don’t stop ghosting you
❌ Prospects don’t answer your emails
❌ Prospects don’t trust you as a seller
❌ Prospects don’t believe in your offer 
❌ Prospects don’t accept your LinkedIn Invite

All of these makes you feel miserable

You feel your manager’s pressure on your shoulder

And you start thinking that sales might not be for you.

Do you relate with this? Because I do - I’ve been there

This happens because the “old way” of doing sales doesn’t work anymore.

Sending 1000s of generic emails and praying they get back to you will kill your sales career.

Now, imagine having a proven system that allows you to systematically:

✅ Book more meetings
✅ Handle all the objections
✅ Move deals through the pipe
✅ Close higher tickets in less time
✅ Run discovery and demo calls like a pro

And, hitting your sales quota.

Wouldn't this be the scenario you would like to be in?

The good news - I can help you get there with:

➝ My weekly Newsletter with actionable sales tactics
➝ My daily sales practical examples in my Content
➝ My sales personalized program
➝ My 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions

8 AI Prompts That Actually Book Meetings (Cold Email Advanced Edition)

(+ the exact wording I use to land 79+ meetings/month)

☑ ICP Research Prompt

“Act as a sales analyst. Analyse CTOs in B2B SaaS (100–500 employees). Summarise their top 5 priorities, daily pains, and buying triggers in less than 200 words.”

☑ Personalization Hook Prompt

“For this LinkedIn profile [link], draft 3 icebreakers. Keep under 20 words, avoid flattery, tie to their recent activity. Avoid jargon, buzzwords or being salesy.”

☑ Problem Hypothesis Prompt

 “Write 3 pain-point hypotheses for VPs of Sales in SaaS who missed quota last quarter. Keep each under 15 words. Make them relevant and give me a 1 line “Why it matters” for me to understand your POV”

☑ Objection Handler Prompt

 “Give me 3 tactical responses to ‘too expensive’ objection for SaaS buyers in X industry for Y role/title that are willing to buy [my solution]. Make it consultative, not defensive. Each reply must be under 25 words.”

☑ CTA Prompt

"Generate 3 high-converting CTAs for a SaaS demo request email. Each CTA must be under 12 words, avoid pushy sales language, and emphasize clear, outcome-driven value that motivates action without pressure. Prioritize clarity, psychological pull, and alignment with a business decision-maker mindset."

☑ Follow-up Prompt

"Craft a compelling two-sentence follow-up email for a prospect who opened but did not reply to my initial message [insert message 1]. Provide fresh value by weaving in a single new, research-backed insight or market trend that sparks curiosity and relevance, while keeping the tone consultative rather than transactional."

☑ Case Study Builder Prompt

"Transform the following customer testimonial into a concise, two-line cold email case study. Highlight quantifiable ROI, specific numbers, and credible impact in a way that feels authoritative yet humble—avoiding overt self-promotion while ensuring the results command attention and trust."

☑ Multi-Thread Prompt

"Identify 3 alternative stakeholders to approach if a VP of Sales does not respond. For each contact, justify their relevance by explaining their role in the decision-making ecosystem, their potential influence on the buying process, and how they could shape or accelerate a purchasing conversation."

♻️ Repost this so more people stop using GPT like an intern

Your SDRs shouldn’t exist.
At least not the way you make them operate.
This is THE way to do it:

Spray-and-pray sequences.
No signal, no strategy. Just spam.

That’s exactly where one VP of Sales was stuck.

Inbound was “OKEY”.
Outbound? Wasting time and budget.

We fixed their system using Alta | AI Revenue Workforce, and built a 24/7 GTM system that actually talks to itself.

2 AI SDR agents:

𝗞𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲 (𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱) tracks live buying signals, builds personalized lists, runs targeted outreach.

𝗔𝗹𝗲𝘅 (𝗜𝗻𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱) qualifies and books inbound leads instantly. No delays. No human drop-off.

But the real magic? They work as a system. Check 2 strategies we applied:

1. 𝗜𝗻𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝘂𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱

Inbound spiked from mid-market fintech teams. Alex flagged it.

Katie built a list of 30 lookalikes: 

→ Same tech stack
→ Similar hiring trends
→ Matching ICP

Campaign launched: “We’ve been helping fintech teams tackling [pain] by doing [action]. Sound familiar?”

Follow-up: “Still relevant?” + 1-line value hook

Result: 4 meetings in 2 days. 2 came from auto follow-ups. No human touch.

2. 𝗢𝘂𝘁𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱

Alex qualified an inbound VP. Timing was off.

Katie set a smart trigger: “Re-engage if they post a new SDR role."

Three weeks later, it fired. 

Message: “Saw you're hiring SDRs, still thinking about pipeline coverage?”

13-minute reply.
Meeting booked.
Deal closed 22 days later.

Inbound and outbound aren't different departments.

They're one system, when you build it right.

If your sales motion still feels like ping-pong, it’s time to play relay.

What are you waiting to implement AI at scale like I do with my clients using Alta | AI Revenue Workforce?

In less than 8 minutes, I built a sales automation that would've made Bill Gates think it’s illegal (steal it below):

No engineering team.
No technical background.
No Zapier rabbit hole.

Just one prompt.

Here’s why it matters:

𝗢𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗮𝘆 (𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗶𝘁):

It’s Sunday night. I’ve got 3 discovery calls coming up.

So I’m bouncing between LinkedIn, Crunchbase, company blogs, and past emails.

Trying to reverse-engineer what matters to each buyer.

Then (somehow) connect it to what I sell.

Sometimes I nail it. Most of the time?

I’m tired, cutting corners, and walking in cold, hoping to “uncover” pain live.

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝘄𝗮𝘆: 𝗜 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗙𝗶𝘅.

Every Sunday at 1pm:

→ It checks my calendar
→ Pulls the next 3 disco calls
→ Investigates each company: milestones, triggers, news
→ Profiles each prospect: role, influence, likely goals
→ Cross-references everything with my value prop
→ And emails me 3 POVs

No wasted hours.
No pre-call anxiety.
No waiting for the buyer to talk.

I show up with a perspective.
I lead with relevance.
And the call hits different because of it.

Want to see how it works?

The full flow took me under 8 minutes & zero tech skill.

Huge shoutout to Isaac Toscano for building something like this. We all needed it!

How I'm using Perplexity’s new Browser Comet to 3X my client’s meetings booked and closed won deals:

Perplexity dropped Comet, their new agentic browser that's changing the game for sales pros.

While everyone's talking about what it is, let me show you how I'm actually using it:

3 real-time sales use cases that change how you sell, all done inside your browser, not a separate tool:

1️⃣ Prospect Research While You Browse

Prompt: “While I’m on LinkedIn, find 15 fintech startups with 50–200 employees that raised Series A in the last 6 months. Pull founders’ names, LinkedIn URLs, and company summaries.”

→ You don’t leave the tab. Comet scans LinkedIn profiles, Crunchbase data, and press releases in the background, surfacing verified prospects right in your sidebar.

Example: You’re checking a founder’s LinkedIn, it instantly flags “This company just raised $12M, hiring 3 SDRs  likely building outbound.”

2️⃣ Competitive Intel That Follows You

Prompt: “As I review [competitor website], compare their pricing, positioning, and features to ours. Summarize top differentiators I can use in a pitch.”

→ Comet analyzes the page in real time, no copy-pasting URLs and gives you a short battlecard while you’re still scrolling.

Example: You’re on a competitor’s pricing page; it pops up “They hide API access behind Enterprise, leverage that for SMB calls.”

3️⃣ Personalized Outreach Without Leaving the Prospect Page

Prompt: “I’m on [prospect’s LinkedIn]. Summarize their last 5 posts, extract tone and priorities, and draft a relevant cold email opener.”

→ Instantly generates a personalized intro right beside the profile.

Example: You’re viewing a CRO’s post about pipeline quality. Comet suggests: “Saw your post on tightening discovery, here’s how we helped fintech A improve SQL rate by 42%.”

You’re no longer researching on Perplexity, you’re selling with it, as it reads every site, competitor, context, and profile you open and feeds you actionable insights in real time.

This isn't about replacing your skills, it's about eliminating the grunt work so you can focus on high-value conversations.

Are you using agentic AI in your sales process yet?

If not, then it’s time to DM me so I can train you & your team on how to book more, and close faster. Don’t let your competitor start first.

These are my 7 go-to frameworks that actually get replies:

AI won’t book meetings for you, but it’ll make sure you never run out of ways to start one

1: Pain Point + Case Study

Start with what actually hurts, back it up with proof, and end with curiosity.

2: Lead Magnet Strategy

Give value first, earn attention before you ask for time.

3: Trigger → Question → Value → CTA

Anchor to something real, ask something sharp, connect it fast.

4: Trigger → Agitation → Social Proof → CTA

Show them the pain, show them who fixed it, invite the same.

5: Competitor → Differentiation

Don’t bash but compare. Make improvement the obvious next step.

6: Bold Observation → Soft CTA

Start with truth. End with permission. It feels human because it is.

7:  External Resource Bump

Follow up with something useful. Stay relevant without chasing.

Every one of these has been tested and every one converts.

Comment “Frameworks” and I’ll DM you the Notion Library of email templates.

👉 Follow Alan Ruchtein for more outbound strategies

AI will replace you if you keep using it like Google. Here’s how to use it like a top 1% seller

8 ready-to-go use cases:

1️⃣ Prep with Purpose

Use GPT or Perplexity to build a 3-minute intel brief before every call.

Prompt: “Summarize [Company Name]’s recent goals, funding, and biggest growth blockers and translate it into 3 talking points I can use to sound like an insider.”

You’ll open calls like someone who’s already on their team, not a stranger with a script.

2️⃣ Ask Smarter Questions

Prompt AI to generate layered discovery questions that surface budget, risk, and urgency.

Prompt: “Write 5 discovery questions to uncover timing, internal risk, and cost of inaction for a CRO.”

Example: “What happens if this project gets delayed another quarter?”

This turns curiosity into control, you lead the conversation, not the buyer.

3️⃣ Connect Features to KPIs

Drop your demo script into GPT.

Prompt: “For each feature, link it to measurable outcomes, CAC, sales velocity, or cost per rep.” 

Stop demoing features. Start selling business impact.

4️⃣ Handle Objections Before They Happen

Use Claude to pre-empt resistance.

Prompt: “List 5 objections a CRO would raise about [your product] and reframe each using ROI or opportunity cost.”

Example: “It’s too expensive” → “It’s more expensive not to fix this.” 
Anticipate the objection, then weaponize it in your favor.

5️⃣ Build Tiered Proposals

Ask GPT to structure Core vs. Premium options.

Prompt: “Create two pricing options: one focused on essentials, one on maximizing ROI and minimizing risk.”

Result: Buyers stop negotiating on price, they start choosing value.

6️⃣ Create Recaps That Sell for You

Feed your call transcript into GPT.

Prompt: “Summarize this call into: 1) key pains, 2) desired outcomes, 3) ROI language.”

Then paste it in your follow-up email. You’re not just recapping, you’re reinforcing the business case.

7️⃣ Coach Yourself with AI

Upload recordings into Momentum, Spiky, or GPT.

Prompt: “Evaluate my tone, pacing, question quality, and objection handling. What would a top rep do differently?”

AI becomes your personal sales coach , available 24/7.

8️⃣ Track Wins & Patterns

Feed GPT your notes or transcripts.

Prompt: “Compare my last 10 won vs. lost deals, identify patterns in tone, language, and question types.”

Double down on what builds trust. Cut what kills deals.

If you want to plug this AI sales workflow into your team, and train your reps to sell like top performers , DM me “SYSTEM.” 

I’ll show you how to make AI your unfair sales advantage

Don’t ask ChatGPT to “write a cold email”

Instead, ask to think like a sales copilot with these 3 prompts (Bonus included):

Most sellers try to outsource their emails to AI.

Top sellers use it to sharpen their thinking, not replace it.

Here’s how they actually do it 👇

1️⃣ Sharpen personalization

Feed GPT real context: A post, quote, trigger, or signal.

It writes openers that sound like you, not a template.

2️⃣ Cut fluff, boost clarity

Let GPT act as your editor.

<67 words. One CTA. No jargon. Mobile-first.

3️⃣ Test subject lines like a marketer

Ask GPT for 4 short, curiosity-driven options.

No “quick question.” No “touching base.”

AI isn’t replacing reps.

It’s refining how the best ones think.

Or use this BONUS prompt to re-write your email:

"Rewrite this cold email for a Head of Ops at a 50-person company. Make the first 2 lines a visceral description of the problem they feel at 4 PM on a Tuesday. Be blunt. Be human. Use casual language, not pitch speak. Then introduce the solution like a peer, not a seller. No jargon. No ‘AI-powered platforms.’ Just pain → relief.”

how great sellers use ai to write better email

Cold email isn’t dead. You treat it like it’s 2018.

3 problems I see every day (and how to solve them):

 • Prospecting = copy-paste LinkedIn bios
 • Emails = walls of text + zero POV
 • Follow-ups = “just checking in”

Here’s how I fix it with AI (20 moves you can copy today):

1: Prospecting & Research

Pull live triggers (funding, hiring, launches) in seconds with @Perplexity
Summarize top 3 pain points per persona
Flip competitor case studies into proof points

2: Email Creation

Generate 5 subject lines under 5 words
Convert LinkedIn posts into personalized openers
Shrink case studies to <25 words with ROI metric
Swap “30 min call?” with micro-yes CTAs (slide / quick reply)

3: Follow-Ups & Objections

Auto-generate 40-word bump emails
Reframe “No budget” with COI (cost of inaction)
Turn an article into a 2-line nurture follow-up

4: Testing & Optimization

Create 3 rewrites for A/B tests
Cut every email to <67 words
Rewrite tone for CFO vs CMO

5: Scaling & Sequences

Build 3-step Intro → Proof → Bump flows
Repurpose as LinkedIn DMs
Save winning prompts into a template library

Pro tip: Create your Buyer persona matrix + cold email sequence for FREE with this Custom AI GPT - https://lnkd.in/dSiceii6

Why this matters:

AI doesn’t just “write faster.”

It gives you a repeatable system for research → message → follow-up → scale.

Instead of guessing → you run a playbook that compounds every week.

If your outbound team is still stuck at <3% reply rates, you don’t need another template, you need a system.

That’s what I build for clients:

→ ICP research automated with AI triggers
→ Sequences that sound like top reps (not robots)
→ Playbooks that compound results week after week
→ Trainings that help your team to perform like elite sellers

If you want me to help you map this system with your sales team, DM me to see if we’re a fit to working together.

Only reps who adapt to outbound will own the next decade:

Outbound is evolving

Evolution adds new layers

Reinventions delete what no longer works

Outbound didn’t die, attention did

Buyers didn’t stop responding because they hate sales or being sold

They stopped because you didn’t evolve as fast as they did

-Cold calls turned into “silence unknown callers.”
-Cold emails turned into “promotions tab.”
-AI-generated spam finished the job.

The problem isn’t automation. It’s that you are not original anymore

Outbound isn’t dead. It’s just going AI-native

In 2026, the best reps won’t send more messages; they'll build systems that learn from every rejection, trigger, and win

Every AI Sales workflow I built last year taught me one thing: If you can’t translate your offer into pure relevance to your prospect, your automation just scales the noise

And your “beautiful email” is just BS and s*cks

I’ve sent and analyzed +50,000 cold emails. Reply rates dropped +47% when context and relevance was missing

AI didn’t “replace” sellers. It equipped elite ones with a system ten times faster, and harder to ignore

What’s replacing sellers?

-Outbound that thinks
-Outbound that listens before it speaks
-Outbound that runs on signal, not spam

That’s the reboot

Sincerely, Alan Ruchtein

Leave your radical hard opinion below:

2 emails, 1 meeting booked in 10 minutes.
The Email Forward Strategy (explained below):

Most cold emails get ignored.

But there’s a play that flips the script — and books meetings fast.

I call it The Forward Strategy.

Here’s how it works:

You’re targeting a mid-market SaaS org. Their CRO just posted on LinkedIn about missing revenue targets.

In the comments: pipeline quality comes up.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 1: 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗥𝗢

“Saw your post on rev targets. Teams in your space are tightening up pipeline quality by doing X, might be worth a look.”

You’re not expecting a reply.
You’re planting a signal.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 2: 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗩𝗣 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀

With one sentence on top: “Saw this from [CRO Name], figured you might want eyes on it.”

Why it works:

→ It looks internal. Like the CRO passed it down.
→ It feels relevant. No pitch, just intel.
→ It uses social proof sideways. Exec is the signal. VP takes action.

It doesn’t feel like outreach.
It feels like context.

Here’s how to run it:

Find a CRO public trigger tied to a pain you solve. 
Send them a cold email with a sharp POV.
Forward it to their VP with that one-line intro.

No faking. No fluff.
Just smarter sequencing.

It’s not mass automation.
It’s surgical outbound.

Want to make it land? I use FullEnrich to get all the right emails and data.

Because even the best play flops if you’re emailing the wrong (or no) person.
