I just checked for 2019 so far and...
✅ ~70% of my revenue
✅ ~50% of my podcast guest appearances
✅ ~30% of the experts contributing to my new S4F course
... only happened because I followed up at least once! 🤯
So - if I'm your competitor and you don't send follow-ups religiously - you'll have to do 2x my workload just to get the same results. 🤕
Make today the day you start following up. 💁♂️
That right, One time I need follow up 5 times over email to close my biggest deal in my other business.
Their reason ? Simple, they just forgot to reply my email, and they accidentally deleted my last message
Guess I should follow up with my advertisers ;)
I can really strengthen this point. I just followed up two times to one of our pilot customers and now we have a promising meeting scheduled. 🚀
very good point
Great advice!
I couldn't agree more with you on this... It's the most difficult and notorious part, too...
Yes I 100% agree with this. This is why I use HubSpot(free version). It allows me to schedule emails. So when I’m emailing with someone I will schedule an email for a few weeks out with the follow up. If they do reach back out before the scheduled email I simply cancel it. This has been a game changer! Sure a lot of people still flake, but it’s a very easy way to make sure no one slips through the cracks.
