You snooze, you lose, it’s as simple as that if you are not ready to grab the brass ring each time it swings your way, and with high speed technology swinging those rings at you, you really need to be on your toes to grow and thrive in a business arena that has become one of epic competition.
The days of phone calls or faxes to your company requesting quotes or information are long gone, email made it all redundant, and since email is the major form of communication used in business today, it is essential that you know exactly what is happening to emails coming into your business and to your sales teams at all times.
If you rely heavily on your company website to generate leads and enquiries, it is imperative that these emails or contact forms be given immediate attention; leave it too long and you have lost a potential sale, and done damage to your reputation to boot!
The other side of this coin is that if those emails are attended to as quickly as possible, not only will you be first in line to engage the customer, but you will also earn great points for on-the-ball service. Even if that specific customer does not make use of your services or buy your product then and there, the door has been opened to future business with them based solely on the quality and speed of the response they received from your company.
The economy in South Africa is going through a seriously challenging period, people have less to spend and think very carefully before they do buy a service or product, which means that you have to be willing to go even further than the extra mile to ensure that the sale is yours and does not go to your competitor, and there are plenty of those!
Knowing exactly what is happening to email enquiries that come in to your business on a daily basis is going to be quite an eye opener, if you have never taken a serious look at it, you may find a pattern of missed opportunities and have a clearer picture of what has happened to many leads that started out promising and then fizzled out.
