23 ways to get your sales message out to a prospect
Do you actually talk enough about what your company does?
It’s important to get the message out about how you can help prospects and customers. Most sales people do not do this nearly enough.
The situation is not helped by the fact that many sales people stick within their comfort zones. They continue to use their tried and tested methods, even when they are not getting the results they need from them. Typically sales people work with phone and e-mail, despite the fact that most prospects ignore these channels.
The average prospect requires great communication before they even enter the buying cycle
The chances of you getting their attention when they are ready to buy are slim. By that time, the prospect is already likely to have shortlisted the suppliers they want to talk to. To attract a prospect’s attention these days you have to reach out to them through as many ways as possible. It is only when they become aware of you through a range of different communications that they will start to take notice.
A good sales person will mix up their communication.
