You Have To Know When To Fold Them!
There are plenty of articles and reports online about the
power of following up on your leads.
But there's another side to the art of marketing and
promotion that's just as important, maybe even more
important.
In the words of Kenny Rogers "You have to know when to hold
them, know when to fold them."
Marketing is a percentage game.
Burn that rule into your brain and you'll save yourself a
lot of headaches.
An article I read by Robert Blackman put it this way:
1) You can't say anything RIGHT to the WRONG person.
2) You can't say anything WRONG to the RIGHT person.
There are times I'll send my follow up letters to every lead
for a week and not get a sign up.
There are other times I have every visitor to my site sign
up.
What did I do differently?
Nothing.
What made the difference in results?
The right person
visited at the right time.
So what do you do when you've done everything by the letter
and your prospect hasn't signed up?
You move on to the next prospect.
Make a decision before you've placed your first ad, are you
going to follow up 4 times... 7 times... 10 times?
Once you've made your decision stick to it. Know your plan
will work and follow it to the tee.
There are more people who want... need... and desire what
you have to offer than you could contact in ten lifetimes.
When you understand that, you'll know when to fold them.
Cut your losses and let your profits run.
Wishing You Success
