Seven Most Frequently Asked Questions About How I Develop Quality Sales Leads
How do you prospect qualify? Good prospects…weak prospects?
I find out who’s who by asking specific questions.
For example, “Does this interest you?”
Or “When would you like me to recontact you”?
Each follow-up call fine tunes a prospect’s interest level.
That’s why I make prospect qualify questions part of every business development lead generation script!
How do you keep track of who to call and when?
I use a sales management program that organizes contacts, phone numbers, call back information and call histories into a single database package.
How do I know the prospects you qualify are worth MY time?
With introductory cold calls I learn who’s a good prospect and who’s a dud.
From there I make routine follow-up calls to further qualify and develop the best business development prospects.
Have you worked your business development sales strategy in my specific industry?
Top management will insist only salespeople with deep understanding of the markets they are selling can develop quality sales leads by phone.
It’s myth based on ignorance rather than tested cold call business development experience.
A good over the phone sales person can work any industry. Same goes for face to face sales.
The top producers are at home regardless of product or service they sell.
What about voice-mail? Do you leave messages?
Leaving voice mail for customers or prospects who you know well is one thing.
But for new prospects it’s a waste of time — theirs AND yours!
When B2B sales prospecting or making follow-up calls, what do you say?
I never “wing it”. I use a script. This keeps repetitions, omissions and improper sequencing out of my pitch.
They spell trouble when it comes to business sales lead generation phone prospecting.
What size call list do you need to get started? Keep it simple. 100 or so prospects is plenty. Quantity is good. But quality is better!
