Sales/ MarketingQuestion: What is your outbound sales strategy?

Question: Do you follow #hashtags for people talking about golf or weddings in your area?

Question: How many tournaments have you called this week that have not returned in the past 2 - 5 years?

Question: If an event does not book, how many times do you follow-up with them?

Question: Last month you sent an e-newsletter with a wedding promotion, how many people clicked the link?

Outbound SalesSales is not a dirty word!

There are only two types of sales strategies!

Why I love Sales?

“I can sell anything that I totally believe in, but I'm a horrible salesman of something I don't believe in.” ~ Nick Woodman

Simplifying Sales

Outbound Sales involves using different tools to engage and move people through the sales funnel.

You use the data that consumers are putting out on these channels to move them through the sales funnel.

Once they are in the Sales Funnel, they are in for life!

Sales & Marketing Co-Exist

Is Marketing Helping Sales?

Is Sales Following-up With The Leads That Marketing Generates?

Marketing & Sales

Marketing should work hard to generate leads that convert to sales.

79% of leads do not convert to sales.

Of the leads that do get passed to salespeople, 73% never actually get contacted!!
