Podcasts about Prospects

Too many business owners think their next sale is hiding behind a bigger ad budget or more leads, when in reality the real money is in the leads they've already generated, but never properly followed up with. Prospects say they're interested, timing gets in the way, and then fear, procrastination, and disorganization quietly choke off potential revenue. Today's guest, Wanda Allen of Follow Up Sales Strategies, has helped business owners, sales professionals, and especially realtors transform “I meant to call them” into a simple, systematic follow-up habit that consistently converts more existing leads into paying clients. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Wanda breaks down why follow-up is the real leverage point in your sales process, and why the most powerful, underused tool is still the phone. She explains how a five-minute conversation can replace days of emails and DMs, uncover real objections, and build genuine prospect loyalty long before someone becomes a paying customer. Rather than chasing more leads or bigger ad budgets, Wanda shows you how to focus on the opportunities already in your pipeline. Wanda shares the three fundamentals of effective follow-up: adopting the right mindset, consistently using a CRM, and making follow-up a true priority instead of something you “get to later.” She unpacks the hidden fears that keep people stuck, fear of rejection, of being pushy, of not knowing what to say, and reframes follow-up as a professional obligation, not a nuisance. With research showing that 80% of sales happen between the 5th and 12th contact while 90% of sellers quit after two, she explains why simply staying in the game longer can make you the “last one standing” who wins the business. https://youtu.be/TJrC609Yz4E?si=Ap97ggtawja_Amet You'll hear how Wanda's systems-based approach has helped clients triple their sales just by getting serious about follow-up routines, tightening their processes, and reframing “I have so much follow-up to do” from a burden into a sign of opportunity. She also shares a powerful mindset rule you can apply to both sales and life: when you feel like you can't do one more call or push-up, do two. If you're ready to get over your discomfort, stop apologizing for doing your job, and turn your existing leads into real revenue, Wanda's strategies will give you the structure and confidence to follow through. Quotes: “The salesperson that follows up and continues to follow up is the one that's going to get the business, because when that prospect is ready, the one who followed up is the one who's going to get the call.” “When you have a lot of follow-up work to do, that shouldn't stress you out; it should put a spring in your step. It means you've got opportunities in front of you.” “If your job is to bring in more business, you have to follow up. When you're following up, you're doing your job; that's called professionalism.” Contact Details: Visit Follow-Up Sales Strategies to Turn More Conversations Into Closed Deals Connect with Wanda Allen on LinkedIn for Practical Follow-up Strategies and Sales Tips Ready to Close More Deals with Smarter Follow-up?

The pitching of the Baltimore Orioles has been much better than expected and certainly good enough to win most nights over the past two months. But, it's the bullpen that might need the most help and be the hardest to improve as the MLB trade deadline awaits on Monday. Luke Jones and Nestor assess the dealing position of Mike Elias and what might make the Birds buyers or sellers in any specific deal as it appears the franchise will continue to reach for help in a race-to-the-bottom wild card dash in the mediocre American League pennant race. The post Luke Jones and Nestor assess Orioles trade deadline prospects as arms continue to impress first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

The conversation compares the potential deal to past Yankees trades and examines how San Diego might value young major league talent alongside top prospects. Shaun and Tiki also explain why a dominant bullpen becomes even more important in the postseason, when managers are quicker to remove struggling starters.

Do you ever walk into a sales call already convinced the person across from you isn't going to buy? You tell yourself they don't see the value in investing in themselves, or they don't understand why your service matters. In this episode, I break down why that feeling has less to do with your prospect and more to do with a lack of preparation and how projecting your own insecurities onto a call sets you up to fail before it starts.I share two things you can do right now to walk into every sales call prepared instead of anxious: how to properly research and rehearse before a call, and why sending the right content to your prospect beforehand changes the entire dynamic of the conversation. I also leave you with a question worth sitting with: do your prospects really not see the value in what you offer, or do you not see the value in who you are?If you're ready to build a podcast that attracts and converts premium clients while empowering the people you serve, visit joewintersjr.com/start to book a free discovery call.

In this first episode of the LinkedIn Response Series, I explain why your headline should focus on the problem you solve instead of who you work for.A strong headline tells prospects immediately how you can help them, increases profile views, and encourages more conversations before you ever send a sales message.Why Your LinkedIn Headline MattersYour headline is more than a job description. It helps prospects quickly decide whether you're relevant to them.A well-written headline can:Increase profile views by making your profile stand out in LinkedIn searches.Encourage more inbound conversations from interested prospects.Clearly communicate the value you provide before someone reads the rest of your profile.Improve your visibility by using keywords your ideal buyers are already searching for.Stop Leading With Your Company NameMost buyers don't care where you work unless your company is already widely recognized.Instead of using your company name or job title as the main focus, use your headline to explain the problem you solve. When prospects immediately recognize a challenge they're facing, they're far more likely to view your profile and engage with you.Focus on the Right AudienceA great headline only works when it's seen by the right people.Rather than trying to appeal to everyone on LinkedIn, narrow your focus to your ideal buyers. This could include people who:Recently changed jobs.Are active and posting on LinkedIn.Match your target industry or decision-maker profile.The more relevant your audience, the more effective your headline becomes.Use a Simple FormulaOne effective approach is to build your headline around three parts:Identify a specific problem your ideal customer is experiencing.Make the problem feel immediate and relevant.End with a question that points toward the result they want.This approach sparks curiosity and encourages prospects to learn more about you.Keep Your Message SimpleAvoid technical language, company jargon, or long descriptions.Your headline should be short, easy to understand, and immediately clear. Prospects should know within seconds whether your profile is relevant to them.Real Results From a Better HeadlineEven small changes can make a noticeable difference.After updating one team member's LinkedIn headline to focus on customer pain points instead of company information, connection requests began turning into real conversations. Prospects started asking buying questions and booking appointments without being pitched directly.The change wasn't in the outreach. It started with the headline.What's Next?In the next episode of the LinkedIn Response Series, I explain how to increase LinkedIn profile views so more qualified prospects actually see your profile and your headline."Address the problem your prospect is already thinking about, then show them the outcome they're looking for."ResourcesKeep track of your sales activity and boost your results with the Prospect Pro sales tool.Step up your sales game with Sales Mastermind.

Sanjana and Tyler open by making the case that the World Cup is a 48-country meet-cute machine (see: kilted Scotsmen throwing women over their shoulders in Boston bars). Then KT Hoffman joins to talk baseball in romance: why the minor leagues are more romantic than the majors, why slow-burn and baseball are basically the same thing, and what it takes to write queer and trans joy into sports. And: Tyler and Sanjana watch Bull Durham and Fever Pitch back-to-back—and discover that one is proto-Challengers. KT Hoffman is the author of The Prospects, a queer and trans baseball romance set in the minor leagues. His recommended reads: You Should Be So Lucky by Cat Sebastian, The Art of Catching Feelings by Alicia Thompson, and the baseball romances of KD Casey.
