How To Reduce Prospect “No Shows” In The Weeks Ahead

Posted April 16, 2020

Many of you have written me asking for tips on how to reduce the probability of prospect “no shows” during Covid-19.

One thing you can do is to start using the calendar invite you’ve been sending differently.

Within the calendar invite is the “event details” section. You can either put a traditional agenda in this section, or you can turbo charge the agenda into a few bulleted take aways that your prospect will gain during your time together.

It will serve as a reminder as to WHY they took the meeting in the first place and quite frankly;

They’re going to need that reminder with everything that’s going on right now.

A simple way to create the bulleted take aways is to mentally fire yourself and rehire yourself as your prospect.

Then ask yourself;

“What’s in if for me if I attend this meeting?”

So now your prospect has two reminders as to HOW they will benefit from attending;

First, when they receive the invite, and lastly;

When the alert goes off 10 minutes before the meeting.

Give it a shot and let me know how it works for you!
