How To Leverage The Summer Selling Season (Instead Of Feeling Challenged By It)

Posted June 4, 2021

With the summer selling season upon us, my money is on the sales rep, who leverages the summer, instead of using it as an excuse to back off.

When I say “leverage” the summer, I’m talking about using the summer to;

Change up your messaging.

Change up the types of outreach you’re using.

Offer a more fun and leisurely tone to how your interacting.

Utilize “Summer Specific” messaging.

Use “Summer Specific” creativity to stand out.

Embrace client/prospect events.

Communicate during peak holiday/vacation periods when it’s less noisy. You know like the fourth of July when everyone turns 1-2 days into a 7 day slack fest!

Show up more while your competitors are showing up less.

Summer provides an opportunity to change things up and “court” your potential clients/clients differently!

Sadly, most sales reps, DON’T have a plan!

They just continue to embrace the same messaging or worse yet;

Piss and moan about how slow things are instead of;

Leveraging the summer!

Do you have a plan?
