How many leads have you given up on?
You know the leads where you’ve “touched” them once but never circled back.
It is not your fault, you’re busy, and there wasn’t a warm indicator by the lead you hooked into.
It happens to all of us. You’re laser-focused on your goals and trained to understand buyer intent.
If you don’t get the signals, you will move on to a more interested lead.
Have you ever thought about those leads? Do you wonder how many may have matured had you been able to keep up on them?
Growing Touches
Think about all of the leads that fell into the above list.
How many have there been, likely hundreds over your career, maybe thousands?
Now, consider that each of those leads may have needed 25 more touches before they matured into a warm lead.
Just doing the simple math on those numbers uncovers the amazing amount of work you would have had to have done to keep those leads in play.
It would have been impossible without a system in place to automate the process.
