But don’t panic! You will not spend long hours working the phones and making the calls.

Nothing like that.
Twenty five to fifty prospects will do just fine for your lead generation test.

  • They can be prospects you’ve met at trade shows or business conferences.
  • They can be old customers who have drifted away.
  • Or they can be subscribers to your email newsletter.

Select these prospects first…all from your house list of existing sales prospects and new or former customers.
