Really enjoyed the article and will forever use this simple rule:
"We don’t pass leads/inquiries to sales. Instead we pass qualified leads; that is, leads that are ready to be worked by sales. To achieve this goal, we need lead management."
There is a huge distinction between leads and qualified leads. So many business owners that I discuss a sales process with just don't understand that. I spend time educating them that it is easier to sell to someone qualified than spend excess energy selling to those that are vaguely interested.
Loved the advice - simple and pragmatic.
Kind Regards,
Denise
