The Message You're Sending To Your Prospects

Posted November 13, 2014

In a recent session of our online sales program, we discussed the important of the message we send to our prospects.

It doesn’t matter if you’re calling, emailing, sending something in the mail etc, you do know that you can’t keep sending a message that’s either driving at an appointment or for them to buy,right?

I’m sure you just gave me a head nod on that one but if we listened to a tape of your calls, read through your emails etc, I bet you we’d find that your messaging lacks something that keeps them listening . . .

Value!

Continually asking someone to buy or to meet with you, typically doesn’t add value unless they’re bleeding and you have the tourniquet!

Even still, most people don’t realize they’re bleeding so good luck with that approach!

When it comes to your messaging, how about . . .

Sending along a no strings attached resource

Calling or emailing to offer an idea or suggestion

Inviting them to an event

Introducing them to someone they should know

The idea is to condition the recipient to find your messaging valuable enough to hear you out.

Now we can’t make every interaction a “freebie”, nor should we create a situation where we become “friend zoned”.

We just need to mix it up a bit and remember . . .

To be helpful too!
