The "Fortune is in the Follow Up", and that's why today's critical lesson is going to set you up for success where most others fails because I will introduce to you my proprietary follow up system that closes more sales and prevents leads from falling through the cracks.

So far in this introduction to ConnectQualify for LinkedIn, you have learned the first four steps to my proprietary lead qualification and sales conversion system. If you have missed any part, you will find links to the previous lessons at the bottom of this post.

Several years ago, I pioneered my FollowUpForever system to professionally touch base and follow up with all of my contacts every 45-60 days.

"Your follow up system is the best, I've ever seen... I want you to build one just like it for my company".

The results have been astounding!

1. Many of my prospects actually converted themselves into my highest-paying clients by replying to FollowUpForever messages.
2. I have received testimonials calling my system the most "personal and most professional", even though my clients understand that it is fully automated.
3. Opportunities turned into sales without any additional time, cost or salesmanship on my part.
4. Leads never fall through the cracks because the system works 24/7/365 without any additional effort on my part.

It's easy to understand why FollowUpForever works so well when you take a look at the results of these two studies side by side:

That means that you can rise above 88% of your competition simply by following up more than they do.

When you compare this to the results that author Drayton Bird found in his study of how sales people follow up, you see that 88% of the sales people never make it past the third contact.

Furthermore, for you to make the sale follow up messages must meet 3 important criteria. They must be:

1. The Right Messasge
2. The Right Marketing
3. The Right Time

All three of these must occur for the sale to happen. Since you never know when a person's situation will change, it's important that you follow up consistently so that your message has the best chance of arriving at exactly the right time.

+ Pro Tip

If: You follow up incorrectly
Then: You run the risk of dropping the ball, or worse, alienating a good prospect 

Make Sure You: 

• Segment Your Follow Up Appropriately
• Immediately Respond to Calls to Action
• Be Assertive At The Right Times, But Not Over-Aggressive

Watch this example of “Fly on the Wall” marketing that improves your sales lead qualification system so that you can quickly find and filter your hottest leads that want to do business with you right now.

If you are in business, or sales, this type of a process will skyrocket your closing rates by (This works great for LinkedIn Connections, too):

1. Identify your hottest leads that want to do business with you right now.
2. Giving you valuable intelligence you can use to close the deal.
3. Protect you from giving away your valuable time and information to “Tire Kickers and Brain Pickers” that want to rob you blind.
