It took me 9 months approx. to convert a new client during my recruitment role.
WHY did I spend a long time prospecting this client?
✅ They were a known agency user
✅ They worked with a competitor of mine
✅ This company had a good reputation within their industry sector
⚙ ⚙ ⚙
WHAT did I do:
I spent time researching the company and the internal decision makers.
I devised a sales cadence for communicating with this company on a weekly basis, i.e. personalised phone chats, social media engagement, compelling emails, post (with a gift), office visit (to show my face).
I remained consistent, passionate, and authentic.
⚙ ⚙ ⚙
🏆 The Outcome: I secured 5 out of the 6 interviews for a vacancy with this new client. The 1 interview was with a competitor of mine.
Remember – To be successful in a sales role – Follow a process, identify the companies who will become your clients, and have a growth mindset!
