I've called all the contacts on my list to get approval to send direct mailer packets (at a cost of $2.10 just to mail them). I am now waiting to follow-up with the next phone call to see if they got the material and are interested in our products. Keep in mind this is B2B!
This is a state to state project I doing so that I can keep up with what companies to call. We are trying to later expand our services to Direct store Deliever, but as for now, I'm trying to sell our business over the phone with no salespeople (many of you have already heard this story). I want to prove my place here, and I also would liek to get some great results!
What else should I be doing? I'm not faxing them because we don't have the money per project person. I don't have their E-mails, so that's out as well. Other than the follow-up call, what should I be doing to prove my efforts for my evaluation in a couple of months.
Are there any website trackers we can put on our site for how many people view our site and who they are? I already have a sec. to field my calls as they come as well as 3 office assistants, so fielding my efforts is not a problem.
I'd give a website, but my boss keeps us very low key because we are growing very, very fast, and large, and the longer our competitors stay out of what we are doing, the less they will know we are there. We have expanded our services in availablity, price, and technology and have managed to become one of the top 5 distributors in our field (Average of about 10 million net profit so far this year). But I can't do any press, and hardly any advertisment. We have been built totatlly off of reputation and service.
Help me out pros!
