On average, the “SDR team” generate between 20 – 30 meetings/month. Peeling back the data, you discover that over 70% of the meetings come from INBOUND marketing leads, and a mere 30% of the meetings come from outbound. This is where things get exciting in 2015 with the advent of ConnectAndSell “InstantResponse” capability which can be done through a…

Selling Power Magazine: Cash in on Calling Cards
Selling Power
You can't have too many creative ways to get appointments with tough prospects, and this one has worked well for me. I send buyers who refuse to see me a letter with a 30-minute calling card enclosed. In the letter I introduce myself and my company, offer one or two benefits of using my product or service, give the names of one or two other companies I've helped and mention the name of the person(s) who referred me to this prospect, if any. In the next paragraph I write, "Mr. Jones, I have…

In the letter I introduce myself and my company, offer one or two benefits of using my product or service, give the names of one or two other companies I've helped and mention the name of the person(s) who referred me to this prospect, if any. In the next paragraph I write, "Mr. Jones, I have given you 30 minutes to call anyone you like. What do I ask? I would really like to stop by, introduce myself and show you how my company can help yours." I close by thanking prospects for their time and telling them to enjoy their free long distance time, then I tell them when I will follow up with them. Over the past five years, I've enjoyed a 90 percent success rate with this letter. Give it a try!

Does prayer actually work? Does God really answer prayers? How would you even know??
In this episode of God Made Millionaire TV, TC Bradley sits down with Chad Burmeister, who is an author and the CEO of his own tech company.
After a terrifying accident involving his son Brendon, Chad's faith was challenged. Chad and his family knew they could only turn to one solution to save him. That solution... was prayer!
Chad says he not only believes in the power of prayer, but talks about the unique approaches he takes towards prayer that allow him and many others to grow closer to God. The good thing about Chad's approach is that it's all biblical.
This allowed Chad to come up with a powerful idea that will have you looking at prayer in the way God fully intended, while allowing you to help save lives in the process, You too can grow closer to God with this! -
