Aristotle said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” So what are your inconsistencies saying about YOU? Consistency begins with making a decision. A decision that commits. Are you open today to committing to seeing things differently, and redefining what it really means to be consistent? Trying to be the BEST will keep us being consistently inconsistent. Why? It’s not about being either best or better. Instead, let’s focus on B.E.S.T....redefined. Being. Excellent. Starting. Today. So how about focusing on excellence instead better or best? Because excellence starts today. Every day. The "All Or Nothing Syndrome" comes from how we define consistency. It’s time for a new definition. Redefine it. Ask yourself, “WHY?” Why do you do what you do? If you want to redefine consistency for yourself, take an honest look at WHY you’re doing what you’re doing. Then… Make a decision. Redefine it. Ask yourself WHEN? How about TODAY? Become consistent at living today. So, what if you didn’t have to do it EVERY DAY? But instead, you made a commitment to do it TODAY…whatever IT is for you. Live today. The rest will take care of itself. What if you didn’t have to do it EVERY DAY? But instead, committed to doing it TODAY? Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Building an outbound marketing strategy for your marketing business is crucial. The reality is that, in order to stay in business, you have to have customers. You need someone willing to buy what you are manufacturing. While it would be great to have a product or business that sells itself, more often than not there is some legwork involved in finding the people that need your product or service. Then you have to showcase your work so that they can become a customer. This means that in manufacturing, having an outbound marketing strategy is essential. It’s not always easy but it is necessary. In this week’s episode, Jason and Jim discuss how to institute a simple 3-step sales process, with Julie Poulos, Vice President at Red Caffeine Marketing + Technology . If you’re ready to step up your sales game, then be sure to tune in to this episode.

And what do you do after you’ve attracted them? You have to prove your value to the potential customers in ways that lead to closing a sale. In order to do this well, you have to have a good outbound marketing strategy. The good news is the process doesn’t have to be difficult. You can do this and MakingChips is ready to help you.

Julie’s 3-step process: Identify Your Best Customers, Warm Them Up, Then Make the Call You don’t have to have a thousand potential clients or customers. But you do need a list. When developing an effective outbound marketing strategy, start with what you know about your best customers to help you develop a good customer profile. Channel your marketing energy and resources where you’ll see the most likely returns. Narrow your list down to the handful leads that seem most promising. Do your homework on those customers in order to show them how you can offer them value.The key is to be intentional and specific. In this episode, Julie gives tips on how to create what she calls an ”intentional warm” across 4-8 weeks. You will learn how to make your outbound marketing strategy more targeted and natural. Then after “warming” the potential customer, you can call with confidence and get one step closer to converting a lead into a customer. What Do You Do Once You’ve Warmed Up a Prospect? One of the hardest parts of managing a manufacturing company’s outbound marketing strategy is knowing what to do with a potential lead after you’ve warmed them up. What’s the best way to contact them? When is the best time? There is no hard and fast way to contact a lead. It might be a phone call, email, or a LinkedIn message. Julie Poulos explains that the best rule is to approach each lead individually and give them an opportunity to respond. She gives great advice on how to be natural and authentic throughout your marketing and sales process. Julie also shares practical examples of exactly how to follow up with a lead. Hear all of this and more on this week’s episode. An Outbound Marketing Strategy Doesn’t Have to be Intimidating or Time-Consuming For manufacturing business owners, sales skills don’t always come naturally. Manufacturers know how to make things but going after sales can be intimidating. Also, managing the time between making products and generating sales can be overwhelming.
