Tactic Description:
Ben shares that Chronologic’s outbound success came from leading with the buyer’s desired end result – not the product, not the features. Their top-performing emails didn’t even mention their tool until the second or third line.
Priority: Short-term
Difficulty: Medium
Best Stage: Early Growth to Scaling
Example / Use Case:
Instead of “Chronologic helps you automate scheduling,” they opened with “We book revenue-generating meetings for you – no forms, no friction.”
Founder Quote / Mindset:
“Your tool is not the pitch. Their win is.”

Top Play Flag: ✅
Delivery Format: Podcast Interview
💡 How a Good Marketer Would Solve This:
They’d rewrite the first line of every outbound sequence to reflect a transformation – “before you had this problem, after you get this result.” Then build narrative momentum from there.
✅ Implementation Checklist:
- Identify top 3 high-value outcomes your product enables
- Write 5 variations of email intros focusing on those outcomes
- A/B test across 50–100 cold leads
- Track reply rate and meeting conversions
- Double down on winning versions and refine tone
