In this episode, I share 8 pieces of advice that will help support a sales strategy based on finding new business within existing customers – these are:
- Get the basics right - know your numbers
- Keep what you’ve got - retention strategy
- Prune your database - search for ICPs
- Seller beware! Tenders and RFPs suck
- Account based marketing - hyper-focussed campiagns
- Events and exhibitions - zig not zag
- Keep your enemies close
- Strive to be a KPI - live rent-free in your clients head
Yes, keep prospecting for new business, but don’t ignore the hidden goldmine already sitting in your customer database. Trust me, selling warm is way more effective than selling cold.
