Ask HN: Doing cold emails? helps us prove this concept for closing more leads

Hey guys,

It all starts from this, the problem: 1) prospects lose interest/engagement over email 2) people want quick answers

One solution is phone calls, but as you know, those are so hard to get.

Our idea/concept to solve this is to let people switch from email to private live-chat by clicking a chat link in the email and sending them to a chat page, because:

1)It's much easier to get prospects on live chat than phone. From there you can escalate to a call easier.

2)You can give answers and deal with objections in real time

3)You can close or qualify leads on the spot, instead waiting for 5 back and forth emails

We already have a few guys getting very promising results, but we need more users to get the statistical significance faster.

a) What do you think about this concept? b) What stops you from using this on your business?

Thanks a lot
