Getting Past the Executive Gatekeeper
Some sellers fail miserably when trying to gain access to a company executive. Unfortunately, rather than taking the time to develop a strategy, they smile and dial, hoping their canned pitch will be enough to get an appointment. This strategy doesn’t get many sellers past today’s sophisticated executive gatekeepers, and many aren’t willing to give a seller a second chance.

Truths for Introverts Who Sell: What We Don’t Need To Learn The Extroverted Hard Way – Part Four
Most of the eye contact research being done recently is around people telling the truth. And there is substantial research that eye contact communicates caring and interest. For introverts in one to one communications this is a naturally strong asset.

Contacting Prospective Customers
Your referral source has done her job. Now it's time to contact the prospect. But be careful: The purpose of your first contact is not to make a sale or even ask the prospect if he has questions about your business. If--and only if--the prospect asks, should you present your products or services during this initial contact.
6 Ways to Get Your Visitors To Contact You From Your Contact Us Page
Along with the About Us page, your Contact Us page is one of the most important and crucial pages on your site to get right. In fact, the Contact Us page could be considered the absolutely most important page. Even if the rest of your site succeeds in the goals, if visitors fail to find the information they need to contact you then you will bring their shopping experience to a screeching halt. Shoppers are often hampered if they don't feel they can get a hold of a real person or are limited in their contact options. With all other areas of the site working, a bad contact us page may cause someone to think twice about purchasing with you altogether.

LEADS, LEADS, LEADS
In a more challenging economy clients’ decision processes often become more protracted. You think that salespeople would jump on every possible lead. Yet our research and experience show that, even today, many leads are too easily discounted. For example, some salespeople mistakenly discount a lead because the level of the contact isn’t high enough. Yet research shows that many opportunities begin at the operational level.

Client Communication as Easy as A-B-C
To be a successful consultative seller, you need to grow and maintain a broad base of client contacts. Before you know it, you have hundreds, even thousands of people on your contact list. Obviously it’s impossible to maintain personal contact, yet personal contact is a key to building and strengthening your client relationships.
Small Business Marketing with Video
The use of online videos in small business marketing has become an increasingly popular strategy. Research has suggested that immediately after viewing a company’s video consumers are far more likely to visit the company website or contact the company via phone. In fact they can be up to 40% more likely to make some sort of contact. This is a pretty dramatic statistic.
Legal Marketing: Are you ignoring your "contact settings" on LinkedIn
Poor old contact settings. Relegated to the bottom of your profile. Often ignored. But did you know that with a few minor tweaks, contact settings could make your profile exponentially more accessible on LinkedIn? The trick is adding your contact information (an email address or phone number) to this section – usually found at the bottom of your profile. Once you do, your contact information becomes exposed to your entire network – not just your first level of connections. This way clients are more likely to find you. And not just find you, but contact you. If it’s too hard for a client to find your prospect information, you might lose them to your competition.
