Dear Friends
I have learned early on in my business that one crucial element that can lead to either success or failure is managing data. We all are involved one way or anther in managing data. Information is coming to us from various sources and it is up to us to manage it to our advantage. In my business I never did and never will expect that a sale will materialize on the first contact with the customer. What you get is accumulation of data, the sorting out and the processing of it can be profitable or confusing and lost. Fortunately I have developed quite a skill managing leads, request for info or just playing calls. The results can be quite rewarding if you can manage well. I have shared with my reader before about my biggest function that I do here is answering my phone. I realize how important it is when I go out of town for a day and the messages are taken but I try to call back the interest has vanished With the communication industry expanding almost on a daily base with new and expanded ways to communicate, it is sad that the only way to get to talk to somebody is through different styles, colors, sizes, forms etc of answering machines. No wonder people are so ready to talk to a machine that when I come on the line and they ask to speak to me are so surprised when I say that I am the person that they are looking for, they don’t hide their socks and surprised.
