Part
Two,
Last week you received an email
about "wowing" your customers by
giving them more than they expect.
This email gives you additional
suggestions for creating an
incredible experience for your
customers and prospects (whether
they purchase right away or not.)
In my training
programs, particularly the ones
where I worked with the Un-employed.
One of the Video's I would show was
"Rudy; a Heart of Courage."
Great motivational movie about over
coming seemingly "Dead Ends", and
about keeping our "Dreams Alive."
In that movie, Rudy
was seeking counsel from his
spiritual mentor, as to why he had
not been able to achieve his Dream.
He said, I prayed and prayed and
still it has not happened. His
spiritual mentor then told him,
"Well, Rudy it works like this..
we pray in our time, and God answers
us in His Time. You just have
to be there, when he answers. That's
faith."
I would then paraphrase those words
and apply them to the Sales Process
or to the CRM process.
"We do the Relationship Development
in our Time, the Customer buys in
their time.... We just have to
be there when they Buy."
So it is
important to remember, that
not every marketing message
should be a targeted sales pitch.
Not every conversation has to
revolve around their decision to buy
or not buy. When building your
relationship with your prospects,
give them something of immeasurable
worth... knowledge.
Here are some suggestions of ways to
include valuable content (and start
leading your contacts to an eventual
sale):
-
Newsletters
-
Tips and tricks of your industry
-
Upcoming industry related events
-
Links to news articles about
your industry
-
Free reports and whitepapers
-
Celebrity stories related to
your products/services
-
And just about anything else!
Nobody knows your business better
than you do. Taking the time to
share your knowledge with your
contacts will build that
relationship of trust and
appreciation. Like last week's email
suggested, these ideas cost you
nothing, but could be worth a
fortune in additional sales.
Remember, your prospects and
customers should mean more to you
than an occasional sale. Give them
value and watch your customer ROI
soar!
If you
want to grow your business instead
of just manage it, then you need
Automated Follow-up Marketing
software. Discover the difference.
