5 Reasons Why Your Leads Don’t Close – And What to Do About It

NOTE: THE FIRST SESSION (7:30 AM - 9:00 AM) IS SOLD OUT. DUE TO THE POPULARITY OF THIS ROUNDTABLE, A SECOND SESSION HAS BEEN ADDED FROM 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM!

It‘s simple! Companies create revenue in one of two ways: either prospects contact them or they contact the prospects. The goal of marketing is to drive awareness, knowledge, and interest so prospects will find or go to the company (situation #1) and make it easier for direct outreach efforts to be successful (situation #2).

In retail or online businesses, prospects just show up and buy. But in most business-to-business organizations, there is some interaction between the prospect and the company. We call this sales.

The best branding, messaging, break-through-the-noise promotion won’t create revenue if the direct outreach effort is flawed. And who gets the blame if the lead doesn’t result in revenue?

If you’re tired of marketing taking the blame here’s your chance to fight back. Our June breakfast roundtable provides a process to help your clients or your sales team improve their conversion rates – and make you look even better.

Join longtime BMA member Steve Parry for this fast-paced, interactive discussion. You will leave with simple, transferable ideas to help your clients or sales team close, including:

• How to initiate the conversation
• How to leverage the emotion your message created during the sale
• How to create clear expectations of what will happen in the process – and when
• How to help the prospect close themselves

Includes a continental breakfast.
