Takeaways | What 99% of Sales People Overlook

1.Follow-up is crucial in sales and can account for 30-40% of additional revenue.


2.Phone calls are more effective for follow-ups than texts or emails, allowing for real-time engagement and objection handling.


3.Persistence in follow-ups demonstrates commitment and is often appreciated by genuinely interested prospects.


4.Avoid generic phrases like "just following up", instead provide personalized, value-driven reasons for calling.


5.The primary goal of a follow-up call should be to set another appointment, not necessarily to close the sale immediately.
