Shownotes

Competitor accounts aren't dead ends. An account already using a competitor is proof of budget, problem awareness, and category interest. The only question is timing and approach.

We broke down how to read the signals that tell you when a "locked" account is actually ready to move, and how to get in without creating friction.

You'll learn the messaging frameworks that open doors, what to never say when approaching a competitor account, and how to stay relevant over a 90-day to 6-month window so you're top of mind when timing shifts.

If you've got competitor accounts sitting in your pipeline untouched, this session gives you a clear path forward.

You'll Learn:
  • How to spot dissatisfaction signals so you know which competitor accounts are worth pursuing
  • Messaging frameworks for email, phone, and LinkedIn
  • How to build a long-game nurture strategy so you're the next call when something breaks

The Speakers:

James Buckley, Jennifer Peters and Jed Mahrle
