Sales Success Comes from Actions, Not Miracles
Dear Team,
Let me be very clear: sales don’t happen by waiting for miracles or customers to magically appear. Sales are a direct result of the actions you take every single day.
One of the most effective actions you can take is consistent follow-up calls with leads, old leads, old customers, and old clients from past co-workers. This process is proven to drive results globally, and it’s no different for us.
How Many Follow-Ups Are Needed to Close a Sale?
Global sales statistics show that:
- 80% of sales require 5 to 12 follow-ups to close.
- Most salespeople give up after just 1 or 2 follow-ups, which is why they fail.
Key Takeaway: If you’re not following up at least 5-12 times per lead, you’re leaving money on the table. Persistence is the key to success.
How Many Calls Are Needed Daily?
To reach our sales goals, here’s what’s expected:
- Daily Call Target Per Employee:
- A minimum of 50-100 follow-up calls daily.
- This number ensures you’re actively working through leads and creating opportunities.
- Why This Number?
- Conversion rates: Only a small percentage of leads convert, so you need to speak with as many potential customers as possible to secure sales.
- Consistency: The more calls you make, the more follow-ups you complete, and the higher your chances of closing deals.
Your Responsibility
Here’s what you need to focus on:
- Daily Follow-Up Actions:
- Dedicate your full working hours to making calls and closing sales.
- Use the tools provided, including the Mindbody CRM and X system, to access all previous leads, clients, and contacts.
- Persistence and Patience:
- Remember, closing a sale is rarely instant. You must follow up repeatedly to build trust and convert interest into commitment.
- Don’t Wait for Customers – Take Action:
- Sitting and waiting for walk-ins or inbound inquiries will not meet our goals. You need to be proactive and take charge of generating sales.
The Reality of Sales Success
- Sales success comes from consistent effort.
- Every missed call, incomplete follow-up, or lack of effort directly impacts your ability to hit targets.
- If every team member commits to 50-100 calls a day and persistent follow-ups on each lead, we will hit our sales goals and build a strong, sustainable business.
Final Note
This is your chance to prove your commitment and responsibility. By putting in the effort every day, you can drive success for yourself and the company. Sales come from actions, not waiting.
Let’s take massive action and make this month a breakthrough for all of us.
Best regards,
Norbert Simonis
