Jesse Pujji says about 30% of meetings need a second follow-up. He recommends reaching out once a week for up to a month after talking to someone, unless they tell you to stop. Pleasantly persistent beats losing deals to silence.
30% of meetings required a second follow-up message. Don't say, I asked them and he doesn't like me. Follow up and put that in.
But what is the line though, right? There is a line, right, where you do become a pest.
I probably will follow up once a week with someone who I just had a conversation with, or there was an engagement for at least a month. And unless they say, hey dude, lay the fuck off, or like, we're just not interested, as long as you're pleasantly persistent, I think you're fine. If 1 out of 20, 30 times that alienates somebody, too bad.
