9. Messaging Best Practices
Keep messages short, human, and value-led—then let consistency do the work.
• Keep under 300 characters
• Lead with curiosity (“Have you considered what your business might be worth?”)
• Avoid “salesy” language—offer insights or tools
• Test 2 subject lines per campaign
• Keep body text under 100 words
• Include one clear CTA (“Book your confidential valuation”)
Call after engagement (email open or LinkedIn reply). Keep first calls under 90 seconds. Offer value, not a pitch—“We specialize in confidential business valuations.”

| Channel | KPI | Example | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Connection Rate | 42% | Excellent | |
| Open Rate | 18% | Strong | |
