What’s different about selling AI and data products cold
- Your buyers get pitched AI every day. Lead with the job your product does and a number from a customer, not with “AI”. A demo or a trial gives them something concrete to say yes to.
- Data and sales-intelligence buyers judge your data by your email. If you sell enrichment or contact data, a wrong title or a bounced email in your own outreach is the demo. List quality matters more than volume.
- Technical buyers want specifics. Developer tools and infrastructure sell on what the product plugs into and what it replaces. Generic copy gets ignored.
- Ask for proof in your category. Any agency can say it works with AI companies. Ask for a named client, the reply rate, and what the meetings turned into.
