Daily Sales Tip: Let's Do Lunch
We all talk about the importance of building relationships with advertisers, yet in our time-starved days relationship-building easily falls to the side. Advertisers will not buy us unless they trust us and believe we have their best interests at heart.
It takes time to build relationships by learning prospect's interests, perceptions, values, expectations, and personal goals. Waiting until it is time to close or negotiate is often too late.
To close more business, what should we do? Do lunch.
