“Go Where Your Customers Are”
Social Selling thru
Social engagement is the
new model of selling
Hit the iron when it is hot…..
Cold calling is cold now
A lead today can be someone complaining on
“Twitter” that their current vendor is driving them crazy.
It can be a question in a “LinkedIn” group.
It can be a unassuming comment on the company
“FB” page.
Buyers spend far more time
researching and moving
through the buying process before they engage vendors
When a “potential customer” complains they are frustrated, they are far more
likely to engage with a sales person who responds to their frustration than a
cold call pitching a product.
According to a recent study by
InsideView over 90% of CEO’s said they
NEVER respond to cold emails or calls.
The return on cold calling is drastically decreasing.
What should we do? It means we need to have a Twitter account.
It means we need to participate and engage in LinkedIn groups.
It means we need to comment on blogs
It may even require we learn every aspect of our customer
Thank You
