The Sales Secret You Don't Want to Know

Hello Community! Thanks for stopping by the Business Discussion space. I'd like to share some details from an article I read earlier from tnj.com this week that covers the inside scoop on sales secrets. Let's look...
 
This is inbound vs. outbound marketing. Inbound marketing meaning, the idea of simply existing the customers will flock to you. Adversely, outbound meaning "boots on the ground", go out and get it, type of marketing.
 
Some inbound marketing myths include:
  • Inbound marketing creates customers.
  • Social media presence equals sales.
  • The cost of relying solely on inbound marketing.

 

The reality of outbound sales:
  • Outbound sales create customers.
  • Building relationships.
  • Control over the sales process.

 

 

Other outbound sales benefits include higher conversion rates, faster sales cycles, and targeted approach.
 
The article goes on to discuss ways to incorporate outbound sales, measuring success, common mistakes, etc. If you think it's time to switch up your marketing techniques, this article is for you and is conveniently linked above. As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts and expertise in the comment section. Take care!
