Know More About The Quickest Path To More Sales
One of our greatest success strategies is promptness. We're always chasing after it. More speed equals more action that makes more results. But speed doesn't means always performing the things in faster manner. Sometimes the most speed can be obtained from choosing the best place to focus your time, energy and dollars. We call this… looking for the Closest Money.
We are regularly working and refining success strategies and promoting thoughts like these to help our private clients and members get more done and have a business and life that more ESP - Enjoyable, Simple and Prosperous. Nowadays we don't expect you to spend all your precious time in marketing and refining the success strategies which we do it in the regular basis. BUT we do expect you to get the guidance we give you because we're boiling it down for you and hopefully making you think about things you wouldn't have thought about or else, challenging you to do things you will not normally do and making your brain work in ways it doesn't naturally.
The Closest Money Strategy is something so simple and so critical to your car dealer marketing and sales success but we don't know if we've mentioned here in this column before. We at least identify we haven't made a BIG enough deal about it here. We are only going to be scratching the surface of this concept here… but today it is essential and if you aren't doing this you need to start immediately leveraging this opportunity for speed!
What we've identified recently is a honey-hole for dealers that quite possibly could be the closest money for you. So I'm certain you're asking yourself…"Jim & Travis, what are you talking about??"
We're talking about effectively and methodically collecting your prospects' and customers' contact information-including email address and leveraging it fully. That means the meaningful communications that are sent so frequently with which you will be able to build a genuine relationships with your clients.
Many people who market online understand this concept. But many dealers we encounter do not get the power of this. You need to be actively creating & using a database. Your database is GOLD! Most dealerships collect their customers' contact info when they buy something and some do a good job at keeping it in progress and in a usable state but most don't even do that. But just as vital as keeping your customers' data you also need to keep your prospects' information.
If a lead calls up on the phone or else an up shows on the lot then you must have a system which collects their information. Ever notice how whenever you buy anything at RadioShack they always ask for your full address? They collect the information vigorously. At the very smallest amount you want a prospect's email address and their authorization to send them stuff in the future... It is imperative and can quadruple the efficiency of your marketing and considerably impact your bottom-line. At best, you want full contact information so you can mail, email and phone them.
So here's the big question…
How do you get all the info? You need to have a method that allows you to get at least the email of every prospect that calls, comes into your location or that you run into in public. You need something to exchange for their authorization to market to them in the future... No one is really going to give you their most valuable possession (their attention and time) for nothing.
So if you are going to have a opportunity at getting them to give you their contact info and in turn their attention and permission to create an open dialogue and relationship you better have something they want. We suggest using valuable information and the concept of giving value first. We've all heard of added value after the sale right? We think that is NONSENSE… You are rewarded for the value you deliver to the marketplace in conjunction with what you do potentially better than anyone else. And you have to deliver that value FIRST - Before a sale is ever made.
That's how you get individuals' attention and permission and create relationships and customers for life. That's how you create raving fans that recommend you and talk about you to others. That's how you get more referrals than you could handle and that's how you can harness the power of that elusive, best-marketing-on-the-planet-because-it's-free, Word Of Mouth Advertising. But it all starts with aggressively pursuing and making it TOP priority to collect the contact info (especially email) of all the prospects you ever come in contact with. With email you can market to them for free in the future.
