“the phrase I use that crushes it's you can just you just you say this like hey I just want to learn dot dot dot and most people are happy to reply to you about why what they want to explain how come they're not making that decision for you and either a you can solve that problem or B you now have some better understanding of the right customer”
Ask every 'no' why — 'I just want to learn...'
When a prospect passes, don't disappear — reply with 'I just want to learn...' Most people will explain exactly why. Either the objection is solvable (and they convert), or the answer sharpens ICP. Free customer research from every rejection. Apply it to email opens that don't convert, drop-offs at checkout, lost demos.
