By setting realistic phone prospecting goals I often talk sales managers out of using my cold call prospecting services.
Just like you, they want appointments or demos scheduled so they can get in the door, make their sale and get more customers.
But getting appointments has become an over-sold necessity in the sales DNA of too many sales managers.
Impatient Sales Managers
Furthermore, sales managers let their impatience get the better of them and end up with poorly qualified appointments that end up going nowhere.
Let me explain and see if you agree.
Getting you in-the-door to meet the right prospects at your target accounts is accomplished by creating trust and building confidence in what you can do for your prospects…and that process begins BEFORE your prospect even considers meeting you face-to-face.
Quality Appointments Take Time To Develop
You get good quality appointments not with one or two phone calls but by reaching out with follow-up emails, personalized first-class direct mail plus real-time follow-up calls.
Yes, it’s a process.
You’ll need patience and attention to details — especially how you organize, track and develop your prospects for follow-up.
But you’ll soon discover this methodical process gets you better qualified prospects…higher conversion rates…and more revenue per appointment than one call telemarketing ever did.
