Overlooked strategy for business development

We all want to get clients, keep clients and re-connect with lost customers. Have you considered reaching out by phone? But not enough time in your day for you to make those calls.

And they tell you the same story — how many dials per hour they make and what you can expect in appointments per day. Either way you probably get the same result — mostly junk leads that go nowhere. The Problem with […]

Slowly win back lost clients

We all have lost clients — prospects you’ve spoken to or sent proposals to but never got the business. To win back lost clients always good to gently re-establish your presence with some of these clients and from there incrementally edge your way back by taking on smaller pieces of business. Letting them drift away and giving up on them for good or waiting too long before reconnecting is  all too easy to do.

Telemarketing New Clients

 This Tested Stragegy May Work For You.      Just about everybody wants new customers.    A tested approach I favor for telemarketing new clients is non-intrusive and builds trust and establishes credibility in a way that gets through to the right people and builds a relationship with them over time and not with a single phone call.       This approach is not for everybody and may not be right for you. But it sure has worked for me and also for my clients. I call it high-end telemarketing. Important you know it’s not pestering people with annoying phone […]

How To Make A Successful Phone Introduction

What if I told you that when you introduce yourself on the phone to someone you are calling for the first time what callers hear on the other end has relatively little to do with what you are saying? Research in human communication bears this out. The video on this page explains the research on a successful phone introduction in a way I think you will find both helpful and interesting when it comes to making your phone prospecting more successful. Words are important. But on the phone your ability to bond with someone — usually a complete stranger if you’re […]
