Ownership over Team Cadence Creation

Hi allWe have a high volume of personal cadences and would like to create a library of Team Cadences in 25’.  Our challenge is we don’t have a copywriter who can write these. We have SME’s in Product Marketing but they don’t have experience writing sales emails. I'm wondering how other people are creating team cadences at scale. Is it sales-owned? SDR/BDR Managers? Marketing? A combination of everyone pitching in? We’re a large, multinational organization with a complex product so would be particularly interested in people working in similar types orgs who also don’t have one person creating cadences for the sales org. Thanks, everyone.

Multi-Threading Best Practices

I’m seeking best practices for implementing and tracking multi-threading in Salesloft for BDR/SDR team. The parent cadence will have steps the team member doesn’t need to complete on a multi-thread. I’m not certain I want the BDR skipping steps, so I’m considering adding separate cadences that are “linked” to the parent cadence so we can track the implementation and activity of additional people at a company. One of the workspace cadence groupings is by account, so the BDR will have an efficient way to see all steps for an account. Any feedback and suggestions would be much appreciated!

To link or not link that is the question

I tend to start off outbound cadences with text emails and then during the cadence steps add links. I Get good views but wanted to get feedback from others on what works best for them with building out cadences targeting new prospects.

Hack I Learned to Increase Personalization

Personalization increases success, without a doubt.Where I’ve had issues in the past is being able to enforce it or draw rep’s attention to the fact that they should be personalizing in their cadences or templates. The lovely team at Salesloft informed me that a great and quick way to do this is by creating a custom field called Personalize Here, not mapping it to anything, and then adding to emails where you want reps to personalize.When they attempt to send the email without personalizing, they’ll get an error because the variable isn’t pulling anything in.Definitely not foolproof, as they could remove it, but at least they get the automated guidance that they should be personalizing in-app in real time.

Using a single cadence to reach to both registered v. attendees in a webinar follow-up cadence?

Has anyone implemented a single team cadence for a post-webinar follow up for both registered and actual attendees? We’d like to provide different messaging to each group on the first step. I was looking at leaving the email step blank and offering two templates for our reps to insert, depending on the lead. Any other ideas?

Cadences - The importance of following the plan

Sara here, Enterprise Customer Manager going on 4 years here at Salesloft.  As we know cadences are those structured touchpoints designed to engage prospects and move them through the sales funnel. We often share with customers that effective sales cadence integrates different communication channels and timing and we drive the importance of completed steps when they are due. *It’s hard to know if a cadence is being effective or at what points are we converting when the Day 3 step happens 2 weeks after it was supposed to  We have found there are two ways to help reps stay on tasks: Set a daily goal/target for how many people reps are adding to a cadence every day. If reps start to add 100s of people every day to a cadence, completing those and future steps on time is going to be challenging and ultimately leave you with reps feeling overwhelmed. Good starting place - adding 15 to 25 people per day  As managers, keep an eye on their due/overdue tasks. There are a couple of places where y

What's your favorite Salesloft workaround you've learned?

I love discovering new tips and tricks in Salesloft, so I’m curious if anyone has some great workarounds to share?One of my favorites is inserting the current day using the time dynamic field “{{n_business_days_from_now}}".Did you know you can change the "n" to "0" to insert the current day? It's an awesome way to add a bit more personalization to your emails by including the current date automatically. 🔥 What are some of your favorite tricks or workarounds? I’d love to hear them!

Implementing Cadence Frameworks

Step one to building an amazing cadence is to figure out the actions you perform consistently. Which sounds easy enough until you sit down and try to write it out. There can be a lot of variables with cadence creation (who is your buyer? What stage in the sales cycle are you in? How seasoned are your sellers? What should step 1 be?) If you find your team is having a tough time getting started with creating cadences, you need a launching point, and that’s where Cadence Frameworks can be helpful.   Cadence Frameworks are pre-built cadence structures. The Salesloft team took a look at the most common types of cadences and studied what types of steps worked best to reach success. Using this information, they then built Cadence Frameworks that serve up which actions you should take and when.  Leveraging cadence frameworks takes a lot of the guessing game out of cadence creation. With a solid foundation in place, you can focus on sharing the right message to drive your business forward.  Her

Experimenting with Cadence A/B Testing

A/B Testing, also known as split testing, is like a friendly competition between two versions of a webpage, email, or marketing asset. Imagine creating two different pitches and seeing which one your audience loves more. By showing version A to one group and version B to another, you can compare the results to see which one gets more engagement, clicks, or sales. For sellers, incorporating A/B testing into your Cadence workflow allows you to make data-driven decisions, understand what really resonates with your customers, and fine-tune your strategies for maximum impact.  Before you dive into A/B testing and add experiments across your cadences, there are methods you should consider to gain the most value from split testing, like only testing one piece of criteria at a time instead of 10. We get it, testing 10 things at once sounds efficient, but you’ll be left guessing what your winning criteria item was.  Here’s a look at best practices that show you how to use A/B Testing in your pr
