They Thought I Was the Prospect… Turns Out, They Are. 💥
This morning, I got a cold text from a tree service company offering a free estimate.
They pulled my number from a lead gen list and assumed I had trees that needed trimming.
I don’t. The storms already took care of that. 🌪️🌳
But instead of brushing it off or blocking the number, I flipped the script:
“I don’t need tree work — but I do own an independent insurance agency that specializes in helping tree services like yours with insurance and risk management.”
Now they’re the prospect.
Not me.
Too often, we treat cold messages as an annoyance. But think about it…
If someone’s cold texting you, they’re:
•Running a business
•Investing in marketing
•Looking for growth
That’s not spam — that’s a lead.
⚡ Producers: Stop dodging solicitations.
🔥 Start recognizing opportunity in disguise.
You never know when your next client is hiding in your inbox.
