Social media can build community, enable connections with lead and prospects, and promote your business. One of the most effective strategies for advancing your business is leveraging social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram. 

What if one simple change to your sales process could dramatically reduce competition and fuel more sales? Studies show that there is a technique, and that it’s both affordable and achievable. We call it “rapid lead response.”

As a salesperson, how often have you heard, "That's too expensive" or "I’m not sure now is the right time" when talking to prospects? If you had a nickel, right? One of the most challenging aspects of being a sales professional is learning to overcome objections like these. Objections are a part of the job, but should never be a deterrent to your success. In this blog, we'll discuss some practical strategies you can use to overcome objections in sales conversations.

In today’s competitive market, it’s important to make decisions based on facts, not just opinions. But with so many sources and research, it can be tough to find the right data points. To make it easier for you, we’ve collected a range of powerful data points into this one simple blog.

In the opening words of his TED talk, American business magnate Bill Gates declared “Everyone needs a coach.” From professional athletes to CEOs, Bill highlighted the fact that the single common attribute among all high-performing individuals was the fact that they have a coach. Why should sales managers and sales reps be any different?

Did you know that 53% of B2B companies spend over half of their annual marketing budget on lead generation? Did you also know that 79% of all marketing leads never convert into sales? Lack of lead response management is the main cause.

What is the point of spending more than half of your budget on generating leads if you ignore most of them? 

In this age of digital communication and instant response time expectations, every sales team needs good technology to back them up. Many types of lead management software can help sales teams nurture leads through the sales cycle, including content management systems, customer relationship management software, and call response software.

As a result of our approach to rapid lead response, here at Calldrip, we often focus on the experience our clients provide their leads. However, that’s just one part of the picture: we’re also deeply committed to creating a positive customer experience. 

Research shows that consumers expect websites and apps to be eye-catching, cool to experience, and user-friendly, but they are unlikely to take note of any of those things unless they malfunction. These tech innovations aren’t meaningful to consumers if other more important customer service details like speed, convenience, and the right product information at the right time are not evident.

Established as the conversational sales enablement market leader in the USA, Calldrip has been available in the UK and Europe for some time. Success in Europe only truly emerged after their partnership with DCDW who together have delivered phenomenal success to OEM and dealer groups alike.
