- Find out the four steps to getting fast converting leads.
Episode Highlights
What to know before obtaining leads
-
- The job is to ensure that we spend some time for an hour and jot down the triggering events that will move a prospect toward solving their problem.
Step One of CORE
-
- Create an offer video or resource to help your client solve a problem without your help.
- We sometimes think they will never need us if we give them the solution without our help.
- The vast majority of high achievers understand the value of their time, they want to understand the solution to the problem, but then they want to get out of the way.
- The key is you’ve got to know what it is that will help them get a win.
Step Two of CORE
-
- Find creative ways to offer your resources big.
- The number one ROI driver of your digital marketing efforts is still your email subscriber list.
- We don’t own social media platforms, and the reality is you can’t build your business on rented land on rented soil.
Step Three of CORE
-
- Use a very simple dollar-per-day strategy.
- If a person visits your website and leaves after you attempt to get an email address to start building a relationship, you forget about them.
Step Four of CORE
-
- Email nurturing is not used to hard sell but to build a relationship.
- Darrell started in direct mail, and when he got a prospect who opened a piece of mail of mine and contacted my office, that was a big win.
Simplifying your business
-
- There’s enough overwhelm and distraction in the world.
- The reality is we live in a fantastic time, technologically.
- We can get too carried away thinking we’re gonna miss something if we don’t do everything.
