Why Your LinkedIn Outreach Isn’t Getting Responses—and What to Do Instead (with Morgan J Ingram from AMP Creative) | Ep. 173 26:01

Scrappy ABM is back with an unfiltered masterclass on social selling, featuring Morgan J Ingram—Founder and CEO of AMP Creative. Host Mason Cosby walks through Morgan’s five-part framework for building pipeline and engaging decision-makers using LinkedIn, based on real-world outbound experience and data-backed tactics. From mapping executive buyers and influencers with Sales Navigator to sending blank connection requests that outperform personalization, Morgan breaks down why traditional outreach is falling flat—and what to do instead. Learn how to avoid wasted hours, turn DMs into booked meetings, and design content that reaches even the most invisible buyers lurking in Slack threads. This is practical, time-saving strategy built for real sellers—not LinkedIn influencers. 👤 Guest Bio Morgan J Ingram is the Founder and CEO of AMP Creative, where he helps teams turn LinkedIn into a revenue engine using proven social selling systems. With firsthand experience as an SDR and a following of over 175,000, Morgan shares tested frameworks that connect sales development to business outcomes. Connect with Morgan on LinkedIn 📌 What We Cover Why LinkedIn connect rates are plummeting—and how to work around it The “triangle function” approach to mapping buyers and influencers Why blank connection requests outperform personalized ones (with math) The “Five Cs” of social selling: clarity, connect, conversations, comment, content Why 5–10 comments beat 100—and how to do it in under 30 minutes How videos and voice notes outperform text-based DMs When to follow up—and the best days to send video messages Why content needs to be Slack-shareable, not just algorithm-friendly 🔗 Resources Mentioned AMP Creative: ampcreative.io Scrappy ABM: Visit for more ABM tips and strategies.

Crawl, Walk, Run: Building an Account-Based Measurement Model That Works | Ep. 172 36:46

۶ روز پیش36:46

36:46

Most teams are running account-based marketing without a clue how to measure it. In this special crossover episode of Scrappy ABM , we feature Mason Cosby's guest appearance on Digital Banter , where he joins Andy Groller and James Kravic to get brutally honest about ABM measurement mayhem. Mason, founder of Scrappy ABM, breaks down why jumping into measurement without a working program is a recipe for confusion, not results. He introduces a crawl-walk-run approach to measurement using a simple account progression model: from awareness through to opportunity. He also gets tactical on what tools you actually need to track success — and no, a $100K tech stack isn’t one of them. If your ABM goals are misaligned with your buyer’s journey or you’re still reporting on MQLs when you should be focused on MQAs, this episode gives you the straight answers you’ve been looking for. 👤 Guest Bio Mason Cosby is the founder of Scrappy ABM, a firm focused on helping B2B teams do more with less when it comes to account-based marketing. He’s been in the ABM trenches for over five years, starting as a marketing director at a FinTech company and later working in ABM agency environments. You can find him on LinkedIn at linkedin.com/in/masoncosby . 📌 What We Cover Why most ABM programs fail at measurement before they even begin The six-stage account progression model: from awareness to closed revenue Why display ads to cold accounts won’t book meetings (and what to do instead) Common sense ways to measure ABM with spreadsheets and ad platforms The crawl-walk-run framework for measurement maturity The difference between MQAs and MQLs — and why it matters Why one-to-one measurement at the awareness stage is usually a waste The tech you need (and don’t need) to start measuring ABM effectively How to build reporting dashboards for marketing, sales, and executives Why Mason insists on admin-level CRM access in every client engagement 🔗 Resources Mentioned G2 (for intent signals and review data) HubSpot, Salesforce, ActiveCampaign (marketing automation & CRM) ZoomInfo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator (list-based triggers) 6sense, Warmly, R-B2B (anonymous website visitor tracking) Scrappy ABM : Visit for more ABM tips and strategies.

Ep. 170 - Lost on Where to Start with ABM? 53:44

13 روز پیش53:44

53:44

In this episode of Scrappy ABM , Mason Cosby shares a special session pulled from a recent webinar. It’s a hands-on, highly tactical walkthrough of how to launch a closed lost ABM program—with real playbooks, tested frameworks, and a focus on what’s actually changed since the opportunity was marked “closed lost.” Mason lays out why these lost opportunities are your highest-potential revenue channel: you’ve already spent money to acquire them, you’ve built real relationships, and your sales team wanted to win them. Now it’s time to resurrect that pipeline—fast and scrappy. Using the 4D framework (Data, Distribution, Destination, Direction), this episode gives you everything you need to plan and launch your program next week. Whether you're dealing with pricing objections, missing personas, or lost champions, this episode gives you structured, no-fluff ways to reignite deals that were nearly closed. Don’t let them stay dead. 📌 What We Cover Why 60–80% of closed lost opportunities are still re-engageable The four most effective closed lost ABM playbooks: vertical-based, objection-based, persona-based, and champion-tracking Why “information without implementation is useless” and how to act within 90 days What most teams get wrong when they skip closed lost deals The one question Mason always asks: what’s actually changed? The exact outreach channels, landing pages, and CTAs to use based on deal history Real examples of how pricing changes, product updates, or even industry shifts trigger win-back conversations How to partner with sales to pull CRM data and overcome past objections with trust-building content 🔗 Resources Mentioned ScrappyABM.com/plan – Free campaign planning template ScrappyABM.com/newsletter – Weekly ABM playbooks UserGems – Referenced in the champion tracking playbook Resources: Scrappy ABM : Visit for more ABM tips and strategies.
