Relationships are not a one and done situation. You wouldn’t consider someone a friend if you spoke to them once and then didn’t hear from them again for years.
Customer relationships are no different. If you create that initial contact, only to move onto the next lead shortly after, you’re setting yourself up for massive amounts of customer churn.
You’ve spent time with a customer to identify a problem and commit to change. Don’t expect the customer to stay on course without holding their hand.
Spend the time needed to gauge their progress. Communicate what is and isn’t being done. Otherwise you’re leaving all your hard work to chance.
I speak with Matt Heinz, President & Founder of Heinz Marketing and host of Sales Pipeline Radio, about maintaining (and expanding) these relationships and more.
“One of our largest jobs as sellers is to help build internal consensus towards a commitment to change.” -Matt Heinz
