In business being committed to following up with your prospects can be the difference between an ordinary business, and an extraordinary one. that conversion of sales and leads is all in the follow-up. A good follow-up is critical to building strong relationships with your prospective clients. Unless you are offering them an immediate fix to an issue they have right now, a prospective client will not normally buy from you on your first contact.
One of the greatest lessons every salesperson needs to learn is that customers will buy when they are ready to buy. Follow up, patience will be rewarded.
So how do you do it?
Here are some great tips to follow up with your warm leads.
