Follow-Up System Blueprint Workshop

For 2 full days I reveal all of my tips, tactics, and strategies to help you nail down an automated follow-up system to generate a steady flow of qualified leads, focus on buyers who have their checkbooks open, and close sales 24/7/365 with less effort—all because you own the right tools. If you’ve ever said, “I’ve tried direct mail and it hasn’t worked for me,” don’t worry. This is more than direct mail. I’m going to walk you step-by-step through the process of building a “stay-in-touch” program that includes:

Day 1 – Drip-Marketing Blueprint
We’ll start by discussing your goals and your sales process: Do you want more sales? More leads? Do you want to nurture existing customers to buy early and often? Can we reduce your sales cycle time to close by 1 month? 2 months? 1 year? The Blueprint paves the way.

Day 2 – Creative Messaging Blueprint
Next we’ll evaluate the letters, emails, and marketing collateral you use now. We’ll show you what you did right, what needs fixing, and how to incorporate all of it into your own Blueprint at just the right place and time to get a positive customer reaction. We’ll help you create the missing elements that are standing in the way of you and your big breakthrough to your best sales year yet. You’ll go home with a 2007 Blueprint System clear enough to hand off to a marketing assistant or implement yourself.
