“Go Dawgs” is not personalisation.


That’s the message from Morgan J. Ingram, Founder & CEO of AMP Social, who’s calling out surface-level sales outreach.

Too many sellers stop at college mascots or job titles and call it personalised. But Morgan argues: if your message doesn’t reference something the buyer actually said or did, it’s not personalisation, it’s decoration.

“If you can’t say, ‘Based on what I heard,’ then your follow-up is generic. And generic goes in the trash.”

He outlines three ways to build momentum in the sales cycle:

  1. Own the next steps  Wrap every call with, “Typically, next steps look like X, Y, Z.” It builds confidence and frames you as the expert.

  2. Send personalised videos A 10-second LinkedIn video to everyone from the meeting opens the door for quiet voices to ask questions.

  3. Summarise in writing  Follow up with an email recapping the call and ask for confirmation. This creates mutual accountability.

🎯 The bottom line: Personalisation isn’t a tactic- it’s a mindset of curiosity, relevance, and leadership.
