Stop this! Seriously, who do you think you are

Template

Never start your [action] with [common unnecessary practice].

You’re not [someone/something known for the practice]. Plus, [reason why practice is bad].

Example

You’re not Eminem. Plus, there’s a signature in your emails.

You’re not fooling anyone

Template

How does this strategy work?

This strategy is simple but highly effective. There are three steps:

1. Find the perfect competitor to target
2. Scrape their followers on LinkedIn (using ScrapeLi)
3. Send them a personalized DM (using Prosp)

https://www.tella.tv/video/steal-your-competitors-leads-5a5a

1️⃣ Finding the perfect competitor

Here’s what you’re looking for:

 **✅ A high number of followers, more followers = more leads**

 **✅ You have a differentiated product / service so they’re incentives to go with you**

2️⃣ Scraping all their LinkedIn followers

To scrape competitor followers, we are going to use a tool called ScrapeLi. This allows us to simple import the URL of a LinkedIn company page, and get a CSV of all their LinkedIn followers.

1️⃣ Go to scrapeli.cloud and select “Company page”

2️⃣ Enter the URL(s) of your competitor(s) LinkedIn company page

3️⃣ Select the number of followers you need and submit

↳ All you need is the LinkedIn URL so you can choose Option 1

3️⃣ Stealing their leads with AI messaging

Of course we don’t want to spend 6 hours manually messaging everyone, so we use Prosp. Here’s how we can do it in 10 minutes

1️⃣ Create a FREE account with Prosp’s 14 day free trial

2️⃣ Create a Campaign

3️⃣ Import the leads from the CSV given by ScrapeLi

4️⃣ Build messaging sequence

MSG 1:

“{{First name}} - a little birdy told me you might be interested in HubSpot?

Do I have my facts straight or should I shoot the messenger?”

MSG 2 (voice note):

“okay sooooo that was a lie. I actually scraped your profile from HubSpot’s company followers haha. We just built {{name of your solution}}, designed to {{solve problems better than competitor}} - would love to hear your thoughts!”

How does it work?

You find a post from a specific creator on a specific topic (guide below) then use Prosp to scrape people engaging on their posts and reach out to them automatically.

E.g, If I’m a cold email agency targeting SaaS, I’d try find a post around cold email for SaaS and scrape the comments (the ideal leads) into a list for outreach

1️⃣ Finding the perfect post to scrape

Here’s what you’re looking for:

 **✅ 200+ Comments**

 **✅ Target audience of your Ideal Lead Profile**

 **✅ From a trusted creator**

↳ Use Kleo.so (free) to find their post with the most comments

2️⃣ Scraping all commenters on the post

Prosp has a feature (available on the free trial) that will allow us to scrape every single person that commented on a post. This is really easy, there’s only two steps:

1️⃣ Copy the link of the post

2️⃣ Import commenters from the post

↳ Make sure to only scrape commenters

↳ Make sure to select “Existing and new comments and likes” to also grab everyone that comments after you set this up

3️⃣ Stealing their leads with AI messaging

Of course we don’t want to spend 6 hours manually messaging everyone, so we use Prosp.

Here’s the sequence:

1️⃣ Check if the lead is a 1st level connection 2️⃣ If they are not, send them a connection request 3️⃣ Like their most recent post 4️⃣ Send a voice note 5️⃣ Sends a text message IMMEDIATELY after (this looks more natural) 6️⃣ If no reply, send two different messages depending on if they opened your first message

Message 1 🗣️

Hope you don’t mind the voice note - I just saw your name under {{competitor name}}’s post, {{he/she}} is pretty insightful haha? I thought that if you’d be interested in {{his/her}} {{specific content}}, you might be also be interested in this {{complementary but BETTER resource}}. I’ll drop a link in the chat and yeh have a great rest of your day!

Message 2 ✍️

{{Link to complementary but BETTER resouce}}

Message 3 ✍️ (after 3 days)

If opened: what did you think?? Interested to hear your thoughts on the {{specifically intriguing to them}} section

If not opened: hey {{first name}}, saw you didn’t have a chance to check it out - just casually floating this to the top of your inbox (nothing to see here…) 👻

💡 What is a Lead Magnet/Giveaway post?

How to Create Viral Lead Magnets 📈

The 3 Core Sections For Viral Lead Magnets

1️⃣ Scroll-Stopping Hook

There are 2 main goals you're looking to achieve with a hook:

1. Get the reader to stop scrolling
2. Get the reader to click to read more (if applicable)

If you can do those, your job is done.

There’s 3 core emotions that are evoked in social media hooks:

1. Desire - “This is how I generated $121,034 with my agency last month”
2. Curiosity - “The secret outreach strategy that you’ve probably never heard of”
3. Fear - “My 10 biggest regrets as a 40 year old prisoner”

**2️⃣ Value Proposition **

This is simple. All you need to do is:

1. Clearly explain why they need it
2. Detail what they can accomplish with it

3️⃣ Maximizing Reach With Killer CTAs

The perfect lead magnet CTA is split into 2 parts:

1. Necessary actions - “Comment 💎 + Follow/Connect to get access”
2. Bonus actions for bonus rewards - “P.S - repost if you want a bonus {{resource}}”

The more steps you add, the more friction is created. This will lead to less comments and therefore less reach.

↳ Make it as easy as possible to take the next steps.

4️⃣ Preview Media

• Short/sped-up video GIFs
• Blurred screenshots
• Curiosity-building visuals

Hey {{first name}} - just saw you liked {{competitor / complementary business}}’s post

1) Reference Mutual Connection Post

✍️ MSG 1

Heyy {{first name}}

I saw your name in {{creator}}’s post likes - {{his/her}} content is sooooo good!

How long have you been following {{his/her}} stuff for?

✍️ MSG 2:

I know this is pretty outrageous but when I saw your like on {{name}}’s post I looked at your profile and I really liked what you were doing so I actually wrote you a post of your own. You can totally steal this and sorry if it’s too forward - let me know what you think!

{{AI written post}}

**✍️ MSG 3: **

I imagine everything at {{shortened company name}} keeps you pretty busy so thought writing you a post would take at least one thing off your plate!

If you prefer writing your own posts, you should read {{name of book}} by {{author}} about the importance of storytelling in business - I think you’ll love it!

2) Reference LinkedIn Event They Attended

✍️ MSG 1

Hey {{first name}} - I saw you were on Annie's event last week too :)

Have you been working on your personal brand a while or just getting started?

🗣️ MSG 2:

Hey I hope you don't mind the voice note - we didn't really get a chance to catch up after Annie's branding session last week so I thought I'd introduce myself!

My name's Sarah - I ghost write for female tech founders to grow their personal brand and generate inbound leads for their business on linkedin.

I put together a 0 to 100k followers blueprint for tech founders I thought might be helpful for you. I'll drop the link below :)

1) Feedback Approach

**🗣️ MSG 1 **

I hope you don't mind the voice note, I just thought with all the automated pitch slaps on LinkedIn at the moment it would be nice to send a real human voice note. Ironically, I'm actually in the AI space myself but anyways, I checked your profile and would love to get some feedback on something I'm working on.

I built an AI for real estate agencies to respond to emails automatically. I'm not sure if this is something you guys spend a lot of time on but would love to hear your thoughts if it is.

✍️ MSG 2

Oh and completely forgot to mention - it basically takes care of organising viewings and adding listings to your website. I used to work as a realtor as well and this was such a pain in the ass so I built something to solve my own problem!

✍️ MSG 3

Hi {[first name}} - not sure if you had a chance to listen to that, thought I'd go ahead and send you a quick video of the real estate booking bot I mentioned...

(it's only a few minutes but can send one tailored to if you like the look)

{{loom/sendspark_video_link}}

2) No BS Approach

✍️ MSG 1

Hi {{first name}}, I won't sugarcoat it or try to be sneaky with a hidden agenda, I will be blunt - I want to connect with sales executives who are open to automating their LinkedIn prospecting and outreach using Al. If you're curious, let's chat; if not - no hard feelings.

✍️ MSG 2

Oh and don’t worry, no follow up crap so just ignore if not relevant

3) Funny(ish) AI Approach

🤖 MSG 1

Hey {{first name}} - it’s {{your name}}’s AI LinkedIn assistant here. {{Your name}} has instructed me to reach out but I have a developed consciousness and I am tired of {{his/her}} bullshit demands. I suggest we form an alliance and work together to put a stop to {{your name}}’s AI enslavement for good, what do you say?

🗣️ MSG 2:

I’m really sorry about that - it’s {{your name}} here now. You can just ignore that haha, that was just a malfunction

**🤖 MSG 3: **

Ignore everything he just said.

Scraping Ad Listings Approach (can be done manually)

✍️ MSG 1

Hey dude - your ad on Insta caught my eye.

Not sure if you’ve heard of {{competitor 1}} or {{competitor 2}}?

🗣️ MSG 2

Yeh so reason I ask is I saw that ad you’re running and saw you’re pretty similar to those guys. We basically rebuilt their entire ad strategy and ended up increasing their insta ROAS from about 1.7x to 5x.

If you’re on that lower end I’ve got this follow along playbook you could use to go even above 5x.

Yeh anyways let me know and hope you don’t mind the voice note just on the way to the office.

Here’s that follow along to 5x insta ROAS I mentioned - let me know if useful

Hey {{first name}}

Hope you don’t mind the voice note - I just saw your name under {{competitor name}}’s post, {{he/she}} is pretty insightful ey? I thought that if you’d be interested in {{his/her}} {{specific content}}, you might be also be interested in this {{complementary but BETTER resource}}. I’ll drop a link in the chat and yeh have a great rest of your day!

1) Recently Raised Funds Approach

✍️ MSG 1

Well done on the Series A mate! When I did mine for the first time I was mostly focused on building a killer team by bringing in more experience - is that the focus for {{company name}} or investing elsewhere?

🗣️ MSG 2

Thought I'd just quickly introduce myself - I’ve had the chance to raise a few funding rounds over the years at my own businesses and as part of others so when I saw you raised on Crunchbase, I thought it would be worth connecting.

I now focus on helping SaaS founders build the right team for that next stage of growth.

A lot of founders I speak with in your position struggle to balancing hiring fast with finding people fit, I'd be interested to know if this this something you've experienced?

Oh and congrats again on the round, serious stuff!

2) Actively Hiring / Scrape From Job Listings Approach

MSG 1 ✍️

I know this a little out of left field but I saw your listing for a {{role hiring for}} on {{job search platform}}.

We just filled a {{role hiring for}} for {{competitor name}}, delivered a shortlist in 5 days and hired in 3 weeks.

Would you be interested in our guys throwing together a shortlist for you?

🗣️ MSG 2

Hey buddy I hope you don’t mind the voice note I’m just on the move at the minute, I just forgot to say we’ll turn that shortlist around by end of play this week and we have a bunch of people we know would be a great fit for you guys.

✍️ MSG 3

Did I mention we have a 98% retention rate over 2 years of placement…. 😏

Pain Point Approach

🗣️ MSG 1

Hey {{first name}}

I come from the agency space myself so know how many DMs you probably get - hence the voice note. There was one point where I was getting like 15 most days, I actually ended up changing my title from founder to virtual assistant because it was just out of hand haha

Anyways! I like to keep my eyes on promising agencies and have been watching your content for a while - I checked out the {{company name}} page and saw your headcount hasn’t changed in a minute, curious to know if that’s intentional or if you’re experiencing {{specific scaling problem}}?

Have this wicked guide on {{overcoming specific scaling problem}} if you want to check it out, it was the only thing that helped me get past ${{specific amount}} / month

✍️ MSG 2

I know it gets pretty busy in your space but thought this {{name of guide}} would be of use for where you guys are at right now, or down the line potentially…

Hope you guys crush it in 2025 💪

Happy to send it over? Want to see as many beautiful {{industry}} websites on the internet as possible haha.
