In this German‑language episode of the Software Sales Formula podcast, host Jiri Siklar explains why traditional high‑volume cold‑calling no longer works in 2026 and introduces Intent‑Based Selling (Sales Triggers) as the decisive method to boost conversion rates. He starts with a childhood “banana‑delivery” metaphor to illustrate the importance of being at the right place at the right time. Siklar defines a Sales Trigger as any event or signal that indicates a prospect’s immediate buying intent and cites research showing that teams using triggers achieve up to 47 % higher conversion rates, while only about 25 % of B2B software firms actively use intent data. He then details four trigger categories – People, Company, Operational, and Market – and provides concrete examples (new CTO, funding round, job ads, regulatory changes). Practical, mostly free sources for finding triggers are presented: LinkedIn Sales Navigator, job‑board alerts, and Google Alerts, with brief notes on paid automation tools. Siklar walks through a simple three‑step script for cold calls/e‑mails that references the trigger, links it to a problem, and proposes a solution. Throughout, he promotes his “Sales Gym” coaching program for SDRs and AEs and the KickScale meeting‑recording/analysis tool, offering free access via the show notes. The episode ends with a call‑to‑action to apply the trigger‑brainstorming prompt, use the suggested sources, and book a Sales Gym session.
