7 Best Texts To Bring Leads Back From The DEAD!
I know I don’t have to go over why texting clients and leads is a preferred method for communication, do I?
Okay, besides national stats showing that a high percentage of people respond to texting more than calling and email, there’s also the fact that it saves the sender and the receiver time! Time is a commodity–we are fighting for people’s time, fighting for people’s attention. Text is how to get it. Social Messengers too–Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat–but that’s a different blog.
The texts below are self-explanatory. Use them or don’t use them, but the point of the texts is bring out the engagement. When you send them to dead leads, you are doing it to get a response. Once you get a response, please don’t go for the “Close” right then and there.
Use that moment to connect.
Do your best to get them on the phone and talk to them so they can hear your voice. Next step would be to meet them if they are serious, either at your office or at a coffee place. Remember that you’re in a relationship business, and you want to build that from the very first point of communication that happens.
So here you are! If you have any that you want to add please put them in the comments section. We would love to add them and give you credit the next time.
