Managing the September Silence
Skill

The Q4 mid-funnel qualifying continues

Urgency is one of your biggest weapons.

Urgency tells your buyers that you aren't wasting their time.

Urgency keeps you sharp and focused.

And, urgency helps you solve the September Silence problem.

Everyone's back from vacation, and yet you haven't heard from your buyers about all your Q4 proposals. That's not unusual. They need to feel your urgency.

Do

Buyers respond to 'smart'. Be smart.

The last money of the year will not just appear in your in-box. Today, create reasons for buyers to respond.

1. Sweeten the deal that's on the table before you get in touch with the buyer.

2. Customize your value prop so that it exactly matches what the buyer needs to hear in order to act.

3. Practice your qualifying questions with your mates so your execution is flawless when you connect with your prospects.

Don't just send a lazy email that says, "Hey, what do I need to do to move this along?"
