How important is following up with businesses?
Sent out 100 cold emails to businesses that could use my services and
30 LinkedIn messages to members in a niche group
Got one email telling me to never contact him again lol and another email asking about some stuff.
No one responded to my LinkedIn message, only got 1 more profile view, so I guess not interested then.
Have you increased your client conversion rate by following up with them? Or is it a waste of time since they didn't even respond in the first place?
Would it be better to email/mail/LinkedIn message them first before calling them since it's more like warm calling instead of cold calling them? What do you say when you call them? Something like "I'm calling to see if you got my email/mail/message"?
Before I contact a business, I do my research first to make sure they are fit for my services. I was kinda expecting a higher response rate since they weren't just random businesses pulled from a database or something like that.
First time prospecting for clients, what did I do wrong?
