The business problem

Prospecting and follow-up were spread across tools and informal team knowledge. Without a shared view, it was harder to know which person to approach, what had already happened and who should take the next action.

My contribution

I worked on bringing the process into a single operating view. That meant considering prospect identification, message preparation, outreach sequences and the handling of replies together. The aim was a process the team could run internally, with clear ownership at each hand-off.

Connect prospect selection to the next action

A prospect list is only the beginning of the work. The redesigned flow linked identification to message preparation and outreach, so the next action was part of the process rather than something held in a person’s memory.

Bring the channels and replies into the same view

Email and LinkedIn were considered together with reply handling and nurture. A reply needed a useful next step and an owner. That is a different design problem from simply sending a larger volume of messages.

Leave a process the team could operate

The handover included a visible workflow, explicit next actions and points where the team could measure performance. Ongoing decisions and the operation of the process stayed with the client team.

What was delivered

  • A connected prospecting workflow
  • Clear next actions across email and LinkedIn
  • Reply handling and nurture stages
  • Client ownership and measurement points

Results and scope

The team received one process covering prospect selection, outreach, reply handling and nurture, with explicit next actions and ownership.

Facing a similar problem?

For a commercial leader, this shows why the response and follow-up deserve as much attention as the first message. If your current need is to help a team use AI within its work, we can discuss training through DAY SEVEN. This earlier project is background experience.

Bring one hand-off in your commercial process that relies on somebody remembering it.
