How will I know?
“I don’t want to be a pest when following up with a potential customer,
but I’m confident I’m the right person for the job.” For years I’ve coached people to understand
that our role as a salesperson is to solve problems for our customers. It’s that simple. Consider this: you’re a very busy person,
you’re in need of someone to do some home repairs for you, but you can’t find
the time to follow-up with the three companies you “shopped”. Would you give the job to the salesperson who
follow-ups with you, or would you choose one of the others who never called you
back after they gave you a quote. 80% of
non-routing sales occur after AT LEAST 5 follow-ups. Don’t give up too soon. Continue to reach out to your potential
customer so that you can earn their business as their PROBLEM SOLVER.
