Salespeople around the world should be commended for the job they do, it is a complex process
that is not easy to grasp. Unfortunately even for the cream of the crop, it is a scary but true
fact that of the leads that do make it in your door, often that door closes to about 40% of the
visitors who really want to buy but can’t get the conversion for a variety of reason. This happens
without even realizing you are losing buyers.
- The biggest reason for lost sales is simply lack of follow up on leads. Sales people are compensated
through commission, going for the larger sale is human nature and often in the process the smaller sales
get lost in the shuffle. What you will never know is, how many of those small sales could have ended up being
your biggest client?
- Often you lose prospects simply because you don’t have the tools to employ a consistent communication
path to your prospects through email and newsletters. Keeping before your prospects is king for the sales
person and if not given the tools, this can be a difficult task to fulfill indeed!
- For online retailers, the inability to consummate your sale from the web page is the biggest reason you
lose a sale. This happens frequently because of something simple and avoidable like proper search functions,
updated content or a poorly designed Storefront, Shopping Cart or Check Out process and is frustrating
enough to make your buyer leave and find a similar item elsewhere.

and in a myriad of other ways. The moment that your customer or prospect calls or emails your company you

fills out a form from your web page, they are automatically placed in the Contact Database, a CRM is
generated and an alert notification is sent to the designated email address. The CRM is shown on the
dashboard until you have attended and closed it. No more lost leads or forgetting to follow up with your
prospects.
