Good afternoon gentlemen,

I’m sending this email as a follow up to the voice mails that I left on Monday.

Short and get to the point.  Many people are reading these emails on mobile devices.  Emails are to get people interested, not to close the sale!

Short. Sweet. To the point.

Think of some of the emails that you get–especially from people or businesses that you don’t know… Do you read them word-for-word or skim them?  How long do you give the email b…[Read more]

You did the right thing, start high and walk down hill if necessary.  If you average $200/month per county, you’ll earn $11,600/month or $139,200/year.

Can anyone answer that question for me?

I have answered a number of tickets where people are worried about everything under the sun including traffic and hits and are not picking up the phone or sending out emails.

Different approach for different niches.  If you can get the owner–that’s the best place to start and with some niches that’s the only person there is.  Otherwise, ask for sales.  Sales is the easiest way into any company.

Short, sweet and to the point in order to get the prospect’s attention.

 

Plenty of time to present later.  No time to present if you don’t have their interest.
