You’ve got leads so why the f*ck aren’t they converting?
This is the question I get more than any other and the answer is almost never what people expect.
It’s not your price. It’s not your offer. It’s not the market. Before you say it, it’s not the algorithm, it’s not Mercury in retrograde or whatever the moon is doing this week.
The issue is your sales process. The bit between “I’m interested” and actually signing them.
When someone says “I’m keen” and you either know exactly what to say next or you just send a Calendly link, cross your fingers and check your phone every 20 minutes waiting for a reply (this is what most business owners are doing).
They get the lead, have a great chat, feel excited, send a proposal or a calendly link and then wait. Then when that lead goes cold they tell themselves the person wasn’t serious or they couldn’t afford it or they weren’t ready.
Then the whole painful cycle starts again.
Gird your loins sis, because here’s what’s actually happening.
☠️ There was no follow-up system. So the lead sat in their inbox untouched for four days while they convinced themselves they didn’t want to seem pushy. (Read: they absolutely did not follow up.)
☠️ There was no objection handling. So when the lead said “I need to think about it” they said “of course, take your time!” and proceeded to never hear from them again. Cool cool cool.
☠️ There was no clear next step. So the lead had to figure out what happened next themselves and they didn’t.
Your leads aren’t cold because they’re not interested. They’re cold because nobody showed them the way forward. This is a sales process problem and it’s completely fixable.
You don’t need a new offer, a bigger audience or a rebrand.
You just need to know what to say and when to say it.
DM me SALES if your leads are going cold and you’re done blaming everyone but yourself.
