Best Practices

  • Assign someone to monitor blogs that interest potential prospects.

  • Read posts and comments made and identify potential prospects based on their engagement, interest, and challenges.

  • Find several companies that have the same general interest, challenge, or require the same skills. Build a prospect list. You may end up with several segments of prospects that have different needs.

  • You can use LinkedIn or the company website to identify the right team of people that will make a buying decision. Target multiple people in a company. Once you identify the people in a company, use a service to find their email address and contact information.

  • Create a list of companies and assign those companies to a particular salesperson or virtual sales assistant.

  • Create a tailored offering for each segment and content to get them interested.

  • Modify the following email sequence and tailor it to your offer and content.
