The Follow Up.

As a noun, "follow-up" is the act of following up to further an end or review new developments. As an adjective, "follow-up" means "intended to reinforce or evaluate previous actions." Either way, follow-up is often as necessary as the initial contact in gaining new clients.

We've said it before, but we'll repeat it - if you spend all your money and time to market yourself and don't follow up with potential clients, it has all been for nothing. Take control and follow up on your conversation to build real relationships.

So, the question is, how do you actually "follow-up?" Adequate follow-up is worth its weight in gold, but how do you know if what you're doing will be sufficient?

What you'll learn

  • What is effective follow-up
  • Some of our favorite follow-up techniques
  • Why a strong follow-up strategy is crucial
