This Month's NOtivational Article

Create Trust by Promising to Follow Up
by Richard Fenton & Andrea Waltz

Do you sometimes feel like only a few people these days do what they say they will do?  People often say they will "follow up" and don't.  Following up with people who initially say "no" or "not yet" achieves two things right away...

1) It's statistically smart. Research shows a huge number of people say "no" when first asked to make a decision. Follow up increases your chances to turn that NO into a YES. Following up multiple times can also play to your advantage. Most people will have gone home long after 1, 2, 3 follow up calls or appointments.

2) It creates trust. Suppose you just told someone that you'll check back with them in 6 weeks or next Tuesday. Then you don't. What does that say about you and how seriously you take your business? What does it say about you caring to keeping your word?

Following up when you say you will creates trust. People often say NO the first time because of the fear of making a bad decision. When you follow up you are demonstrating that you are someone who is serious and that you can be trusted.  So, ask to follow up with those NO's but then do it!

NOtable Quotables from the Go for No! Movie

"On an intellectual basis I'll probably start to worry the day I stop hearing NOs, because I'll know that's the day I'm not continuing to progress." - Bob Burg, author, The Go-Giver

Richard & Andrea Recommend...

... the free Webinar on "How to Overcome the Price Objection" with Mike Brooks, Mr. Inside Sales.  We sent you an email last week and since Mike is a highly sought after authority on selling over the phone, and his Webinars regularly sell out, we wanted to remind you to get in now!

The good news is that because Mike is giving this Webinar on three different dates, there are some spaces still available so:

For your convenience, you have the following 3 dates to choose from:
