On Crm Software Leads Talk About Your Prospect, Not Yourself!
It's only logical to assume that when you're running a business that supplies software
meant to help CRM, you should know a thing or two about dealing with customers yourself. Granted, there might be a difference when you're a B2B company but you're targeting B2C ones. The way you handle your own clients might not be the same as the way they handle their customers.
However, there are some commonalities. One of them being that no matter what industry or side of the market you are, it's always best to focus on the person you wish to serve.
Unfortunately, some CRM software companies forget this and make a mistake that is normally common but should be avoided at all costs: talking too much about yourself.
What does this mean? Well first of all, keep in mind that business can be slower on the B2B side of the market. This means you'll probably be doing a lot to speed it up via B2B lead generation.
No matter what method you use though (inbound, outbound, telemarketing, email marketing, website creation, social media, blogging, advertising etc) or even a combination of those methods, it's not going to work if all of it focuses on talking too much about your product, about yourself, or about your company.
In other words, you should know better than to take the focus away from your prospect. You should know better than to deny them some consideration.
Here's a basic way of going about this. Suppose in your lead generation campaign, you use a combination of telemarketing and internet advertising. On one hand, you focus on getting prospects to visit your website and your blogs (via social media, SEO, a bit of email blasting every now and then). How do you show consideration? Well simply don't clog all information of your company and products on an excessively large website. Just leave some basic information on feature that you think might appeal to a majority of people viewing your site.
Still, that's not enough and this is where telemarketing can come in. Your website has to encourage people to know more. Hence, you leave a form that gives the choice on how to be contacted further. Do you call them? Do you let them make the call? Either way, once the call is made, you can start having a conversation and exchange information. Remember, be objective. The information you're looking for is what you'll use to make your software something that will work really well for them. In this case, the information is about how they deal with their own customers.
If you do it right, you'll have an appointment set and you can look forward to making a sale.
Now that's just one strategy but the point still is: talk about the prospect, not yourself! Of course, this may not be covering other possible challenges to the execution of such plans. There are still costs of training, the time it takes to learn different methods, and the price of compiling and updating a large database. If you can't afford any of that at the moment then just simply outsource to lead generation services. The point still stands: talk about the prospect, not yourself!
