I’m currently sitting at my desk after making bucket loads of calls, emails and SMS’s from 9am - 2pm today…
And honestly, there’s not a lot to show from it, well at least today anyway.
Most salespeople after doing a day like I have done, would become “head nicked” and not do this again, but I know that the more follow up, prospecting and relationship building I do today, the more sales opportunities I have tomorrow.
Like I said in my email How To Overcome Quiet Days, if you can make 15 outbound contacts everyday, you are CREATING OPPORTUNITIES for tomorrow...
We have to move from being reactive salespeople to proactive salespeople.
So what’s a proactive salesperson do at 9am?
The number one thing that I train dealerships with the greatest success and traction is making 9am - 10am your hour of power!
This is the hour that you staple your butt to your office chair and you make as many of your 5 - 5 - 5 contacts as you can in a one hour period.
This means no distractions, no deliveries and no checking Facebook!
Make 9am your “Hour of Power” and get stuck into your contacts even when you see little reward.
See if you could get a large chunk of you 5 - 5 - 5 calls done before 10am, you not only free yourself up for fresh enquires, but when done consistently over a month, you are making 300+ opportunities on top of your enquiry!
Just imagine for a minute that you had more customers calling you back and coming back to see you because of the legwork you have done over the past month.
If you want to eliminate your competition, try this at 9am now!
