Sales Lead Follow Up

Sales Lead Follow Up  

Sales lead follow up
George Clay

Sales Lead Follow Up Is Huge! These calls establish good rapport…forward the sales process…and gently prod your prospect into becoming involved with your company.

 But here's the catch!

Your Sales Lead Follow Up is Lax. Perhaps it’s because you want only the “hot” leads that are ready to close.

Or perhaps it's because you are too busy tending to your paying customers.

But at the end of the day, you need to find time for your sales lead follow up.

Either you have no time to make those calls...or what calls you do make are ineffective.
 
Bottom line: You are letting your customers and sales prospects drift away.

Dig Where The Gold Is. Make Those Sales Lead Follow-Up Calls!  The fastest way to get more new business is by sales prospecting your house list of existing customers and prospects.

Your house list will generate the highest response rates when you contact these folks by phone.

Yes, higher response rates than direct mail or even email. That’s the power of using your telephone (Source: DMA Response Rate Trend Report 2010).
