This makes selling so much easier for everyone. No more cold emails, random calls, or prospects hanging up on you. Pitchfire is a tool that every tech leader needs to add to their stack.
It does not surprise me that @ryohara chose to tackle one of the BIGGEST issues in prospecting - it is SO loud right now and as many times as we turn wrenches on new prospecting approaches we need MORE thought around reframing the whole process. I am throwing myself into this - I know this is worth solving. Would love to hear some feedback from the experience.
Pitchfire is great for. It helps cut down on my emails and get to the sales pitch's that are confident they can deliver some value.
Definitely a unique problem that I haven't really seen solutions for before. Would love some automation where I can set up an auto-reply to any cold email. Can't wait to see where else it goes!
Helps me clear my inbox. I probably get 10+ cold sales emails every single day. The time it would take to sort through those meant that I usually just ignored them and marked them as read. It also means I was missing out on good opportunities and honest vendors that could help our business. With Pitchfire I am able to automatically respond to cold outreach. Putting sellers through the Pitchfire process means I am immediately downselecting the most serious pitchers and know it's worth spending my time evaluating those.
Ryan is not only an incredible sales leader, he's someone who delivers results while having fun and shares what he knows. I love what he's building with Pitchfire and can't wait to see how it changes sales pitches.
I would tell you that Pitchfire has cut down the amount of cold email I receive...by 99.9999999%...
...but salespeople haven't determined me to be some hot prospect.
That said - this is a great concept that solves a problem all of us know too well.
Plus, if this goes well, we never have to see Ryan wear one of his whacky suits again.
VOTE PITCHFIRE!
Prospecting is harder now than ever before, which requires creative solutions to grab the interest of potential buyers. Pitchfire is that creative solution.
I love to see another way to reach buyers for sales. Buyers used to buy with data and information, the "how" but these days its more along the lines of "who."
Questions:
How customizable is the Pitch?
Can we send emojis, pictures, video? Can buyers schedule a meeting from within the pitch?
