You know you're supposed to lead with value, but when you barely know the person, reaching out feels strange, like you're either buttering them up or angling for something, and they can feel it too. Here's what I want you to walk away with today. Value only feels awkward when it's about you. The moment it becomes about them and specific to them, the awkwardness disappears. I'll give you five moves to make that shift. Episode Breakdown [00:01:15] Why Most Value Attempts Feel Forced They feel forced because they're generic, and generic always feels like a setup. Think about the recruiter who calls and says I saw you did a hundred million in volume, I'm impressed. Every single recruiter says that. It's about production, it sounds like everyone else, and the person on the other end hears the pitch coming from a mile away. [00:01:43] How to Actually Open With a Stranger Here's how I open a call with someone I've never met. Hey, we don't know each other, but I recently did some research on you, and I have to tell you, I'm incredibly impressed with a few things I found. That names the awkward part out loud, that we're strangers, and then it earns the moment with something real. And the specific part matters more than anything. I'm not affirming their numbers. I might say I noticed you've kept the same team around you for years, or you've clearly built a client-for-life reputation because I can see it in your reviews. That doesn't feel awkward. It feels like being seen. [00:02:24] Move 1: Affirm Character, Not Production When you affirm someone's numbers, you sound like every other recruiter who's ever called. I'm not a fan of production affirmation. I'm a huge fan of character affirmation, naming something about who they are, the loyalty they show their team, the way they treat their clients. That's how you stand out, because almost nobody does it. [00:02:52] Move 2: Do Your Homework So It's Specific Awkwardness comes from generic, and specific is the cure. Before you ever reach out, do the research, look at their production history, read their public reviews, study how they show up online. You're hunting for the one real thing you can point to that proves you paid attention to them specifically and not to a list. [00:03:18] Move 3: Name the Gap Out Loud, Then Affirm Here's the move that kills the awkwardness. Don't pretend you have a relationship you don't have. Say it plainly, we don't know each other, and then follow it with genuine research-based admiration. When you name the honest truth first, you take the weirdness out of the room, and what's left is a real compliment that lands. [00:03:43] Move 4: Give With No Ask Attached and Make It Useful The fastest way to make value feel forced is to bundle it with a request. So don't. Send the article, make the introduction, share the insight, and then stop. And make it useful, not flattering. Flattery is about winning them over, usefulness is about helping them, and help never feels awkward. The second you attach a hook, it stops being value and turns into bait, and people can always tell the difference. [00:04:15] Move 5: Write to an Audience of One Whether you're reaching one person or a hundred, every message has to read like it was written for the single person receiving it. My rule is that nothing goes out until it reads like it's going to an audience of one. The moment something feels mass-produced, it feels transactional, and the most non-affirming thing you can do to someone is spam them. [00:04:43] Why It Works Awkwardness is just the other person sensing that you want something from them. The second your outreach is specific, useful, and free of any ask, that signal disappears, because there's nothing left to be suspicious of. You're not performing, you're helping. Character affirmation works because underneath all the production, people most want to be respected for who they are, not just for what they produce. Give someone that with no strings attached and you stop sounding like a recruiter, you start sounding like the rare person who saw them. And here's the bigger reason it matters. Value earns permission. The leader who's known for adding to their market instead of always trying to extract from it becomes the default call when a producer finally decides to make a move. You're not just being nice, you're earning the right to the conversation you'll want to have later. [00:05:47] Your Small Win Tonight Pick one person you barely know but want to build a relationship with. Spend ten minutes finding one specific non-production thing worth affirming about them. Finding that one detail is your win, because it's the whole difference between awkward and welcome. [00:06:09] Three Bigger Moves This Week Send one message that affirms someone's character with no ask attached, so you feel how different value lands when it carries no strings. Do the homework on one person before you reach out, their reviews, their history, so your outreach is specific enough ...
