Engaging with sales prospects whose needs align closely with the solutions your business provides is essential to maximise business growth.
While broad demographic targeting may seem efficient, it often yields lower conversion rates. Instead, you invest time in comprehending how, where, when, and why potential customers seek connection and engagement with your business, which can significantly enhance conversion performance.
By re-evaluating your sales prospects using the following ten criteria, you can refine your targeting strategies and improve engagement efforts.
This will ultimately increase conversion rates and business success.
The following ten criteria will help you reassess who your sales prospects are:
- Relevance: Please ensure your solutions directly address the needs and challenges of your sales prospects.
- Specificity: Identify characteristics and traits defining your ideal sales prospects.
- Behaviour: Understand the actions and behaviours of your prospects to tailor your approach effectively.
- Timing: Determine the optimal timing for engaging with prospects based on their buying cycles and preferences.
- Motivation: Identify the underlying motivations and drivers that influence your prospects’ purchasing decisions.
- Channels: Could you determine which communication channels and platforms your prospects prefer for engagement?
- Value Perception: Assess how your prospects perceive the value of your offerings and adjust messaging accordingly.
- Objections: Anticipate and address potential objections or concerns during sales.
- Feedback: Could you solicit feedback from existing and potential customers to refine your understanding of their needs and preferences?
- Relationship Potential: Evaluate the long-term relationship potential with each prospect and prioritise those with the highest likelihood of becoming loyal customers.
By reassessing your sales prospects based on these criteria, you can refine your targeting strategies, enhance engagement efforts, and improve conversion rates and business growth.
