Nurture your Prospects

Source: eGrabber Newsletters

Not all prospects make an immediate purchase, especially in a B2B environment. In the case of high-end / expensive products, the decision to buy could take days, weeks or even months. This behavior is even more pronounced in a slow economy. But, eventually when your customers buy, they buy it from the person or company that helped them most with their buying decision or from those that stayed on top of their mind.

Hence, it is important that you nurture your prospects and leads. Make efforts to stay connected with them in a meaningful manner. Send, at least once in 2 weeks, information they might find interesting and useful - white papers, articles, tips, etc. Make it personalized. This keeps your leads warm, and you on top of their mind, until the right buying time.
